or – ‘Rip it up and start again’ -We might scoff at the attempts of our forebears to convert base metals into gold  – but at least the Medieval alchemists established the science of chemistry, learned a great deal, discovered useful new elements, and even found ways to make glorious colours and pigments for Michelangelo to use to paint the Sistine Chapel.

“Global warming is speeding up Earth’s massive ocean currents,” said one headline.

“Global ocean circulation is accelerating from the surface to the abyss,” said another.”

But this is another of those climate stories in which the top line is not backed up by the qualifications raised by oceanic researchers when looking at the results of this fascinating paper.

Attorney Robert F. Kennedy Jr. of Children’s Health Defense joins to discuss the much-touted HPV vaccine, which new evidence shows may be ineffective and why it has done tremendous harm.

He also explains how legal loopholes exempt vaccine makers from rigorous testing. He goes on to discuss the revolving door between Big Pharma and the bodies that are supposed to oversee it and curtail its abuses.

The Global Climate strike of last September 20-27 is spearheaded by the recently formed
Extinction Rebellion or XR as it is known which lures children to skip school for the sake of illegal
action on the streets. It is led by 16 year old Greta Thunberg from Sweden.

To this question the answer is yes and no. The orthodox U.N. IPCC catechism goes like this:

I was prompted to write this article after having two media articles thrust at me last week claiming a record high temperature had been seen in Antarctica, and being told here was ‘proof’ of the ‘climate crisis’. The two articles are from Newsweek and the BBC.

Meteorology is the study of weather and climate but it is not a science just a study of history. By using knowledge of past conditions and the results of these conditions meteorologist predict what the weather will be in the near future.

We have already reported about the very different views on trees in this blog.

Perhaps this phenomenon has something to do with the fact that the words environmental protection and nature conservation are slowly but surely disappearing from our language and being displaced by climate protection.

It was particularly warm in Northeast Georgia this past week — no doubt thrilling the Earth-worshipping faithful. We’ve also been very wet. After the latest round of rain, temperatures returned to a more winterlike feel.

One year ago last month, a Chinese robot touched down on the dark side of the moon.

It was the first probe to land on the side of the moon that permanently faces away from Earth as both bodies circle around the sun. And if Beijing realizes its ambitions in coming years, it won’t be the last time it makes history—and threatens U.S. dominance in space.

“Lies, damned lies, and statistics” is a phrase describing the persuasive power of numbers, particularly the use of statistics to bolster weak arguments. It is also sometimes colloquially used to doubt statistics used to prove an opponent’s point.

We should care about global warming and global cooling, no matter the cause.

But that does not mean we should make draconian changes in global economic, political and energy policies based upon the unproven hypothesis that human emissions of CO2 are leading to apocalyptic global warming. There simply is NO proof of this hypothesis.

Youtuber and climate realist, Naomi Seibt says she became “passionate” about the topic of climate change after she “looked into the science of both sides of the spectrum” and realised “what climate skeptics say” made “a lot of sense scientifically.”

Instead of creating a flat-Earth “global energy budget” such as those which the field of climate science is entirely based upon, as in the figure below, I have created (and updated) a new global energy budget which is instead called “Earth’s Thermodynamic Energy Budget”.

There are about 11 or 12 years left before the planet is destroyed by CO2 according to the climate change doomsters.

In fact, there are several very real threats to the existence of human life on Earth. None of which have anything to do with CO2 or human activity related to climate. Here are just three actual threats:

A climate advocacy group called Skeptical Science hosts a list of academics that it has labeled “climate misinformers.” The list includes 17 academics and is intended as a blacklist.

We know of this intent because one of the principals of Skeptical Science, a blogger named Dana Nuccitelli [and a writer for The Guardian], said so last Friday, writing of one academic on their list, “if you look at the statements we cataloged and debunked on her [Skeptical Science] page, it should make her unhirable in academia.”
