Experts Call For The Creation Of ‘Red Teams’ To Challenge UN Climate Science Panel
Prominent scientists operating outside the scientific consensus on climate change urged Congress on Wednesday to fund “red teams” to investigate “natural” causes of global warming and challenge the findings of the United Nations’ climate science panel. The suggestion for a counter-investigative science force – or red team approach – was presented in prepared testimony by […]

Swiss National Science Foundation: ‘Weaker Sun Could Reduce Global Temperatures By Half A Degree’
For the first time, model calculations show a plausible way that fluctuations in solar activity could have a tangible impact on the climate. Studies funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation expect human-induced global warming to tail off slightly over the next few decades. A weaker sun could reduce temperatures by half a degree. There […]

False Alarm: Debunked Climate Paper Triggers Apocalyptic Scare-Mongering
A climate paper published last July has been hyped up to apocalyptic noise levels by climate scientists and the news media despite new research findings having debunked their main claim. These alarmist media reports ignore that new geological evidence published in recent weeks shows that the Permian-Triassic mass extinction 250 million years ago occurred […]

El Niño’s Odds to Return By Late Summer or Fall Increasing
The odds of El Niño’s development by the late summer or early fall have increased, according to the latest output from forecast model guidance. NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center (CPC) officially declared La Niña’s end in early February as sea temperatures have steadily warmed in the equatorial region of the central and eastern Pacific, and we’re now in the neutral […]

New Report: Current Global Warming Is ‘Not Outside The Range Of Natural Variations’
A UK-based climate policy group has put out an annual climate assessment “exclusively on observations rather than climate models” to serve as a counterpoint to those put out by the United Nations and government agencies that warn of unabated global warming. The Global Warming Policy Foundation’s (GWPF) climate assessment, like the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), […]

New Discovery: Eruptions On The Sun Trigger Surprising Phenomenon Near Earth
New research from the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) and partners from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the University of New Brunswick shows that eruptions on the Sun’s surface not only send bursts of energetic particles into Earth’s atmosphere causing disturbances in our planet’s magnetic field, they can also strangely decrease the number of free […]
