Leibniz Institute Director Bathmann: “There’s Still A Great Need For Research” On Baltic Sea Climate Change

Hardly sounds like settled science. Never has there been so much certainty amid so much unknown.

Last Ice Age arrived in just six MONTHS

Professor Patterson’s findings reinforce the theory that the earth’s climate can switch between warm and cold incredibly quickly.

How Did Hansen Pull Off This Cheat? | Real Science

We know a lot of the history of how Hansen and USHCN corrupted the US temperature record in the year 2000, but much less is understood how he wiped out the northern hemisphere warmth from 1900 to 1940. The graph below shows National Academy of Sciences northern hemisphere temperatures (black) published in 1975, overlaid with the current GISS northern hemisphere plot (red). Hansen generally wiped 0-2-0.3 degrees off all pre-1940 temperatures.

Does anyone have any information how and when this was done?

The Face of Genocidal Eco-Fascism

This is Finnish writer Pentti Linkola — a man who demands that the human population reduce its size to around 500 million and abandon modern technology and the pursuit of economic growth — in his own words. He likens Earth today to an overflowing lifeboat:

What to do, when a ship carrying a hundred passengers suddenly capsizes and there is only one lifeboat? When the lifeboat is full, those who hate life will try to load it with more people and sink the lot. Those who love and respect life will take the ship’s axe and sever the extra hands that cling to the sides

William M. Briggs » Scientific Truths Are Not Better Truths Than Just-Plain Truths

One of the key fallacies of scientism, in the sense of being the most destructive to common sense and personal wellbeing, is to suppose that any theory put forth in the name of science is therefore true, or certain enough to believe as true. The posited theory is, after all, scientific and, so scientism says, there is no better recommendation to truth than this.
