Matthew Courtney, Watts Up With That? Sad to announce that Richard S Courtney died on Monday 30th September 2024, the day before his 78th birthday, at his home in Falmouth, Cornwall, UK. He had been suffering from the effects of cancer and its treatment for a long time. Coincidentally, this was the day the last coal-fired […]
by Richard S. Courtney New plot to compare with Figure 1 Compare Richard Courtney’s Figure 1 with the figure below that I (Ed) plotted using IPCC-approved data with monthly resolution with the bonus that the data extend to 2015. The plot shows that Richard Courtney’s Figure 1 is correct. The annual change in the Mauna
by Ed Berry, Ph.D., Physics On September 7, I will present a summary of my climate research to scientists at the international climate conference, “Basic Science of a Changing Climate,” at Porto University, Portugal. On September 11, I will present the same talk but slower to a public audience in Kalispell, Montana. Roger Roots, J.D., Ph.D.,
by E.X Berry and K.W. Nielsen, 1966 In January 1966, four explorers flew the Desert Research Institute Beechcraft C-45 through Old Faithful Geyser and other geyser plumes in Yellowstone National Park, USA. (After Ed received his PhD degree in 1965, DRI Director Wendell Mordy made him the manager of DRI’s Airborne Research Facility. That’s why
“I know that most men, including those at ease with problems of the greatest complexity, can seldom accept even the simplest and most obvious truth if it be such as would oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions which they have delighted in explaining to colleagues, which they have proudly taught to others, and
by Steve Goreham, The Washington Times Earlier this month, a New York Times article by Andy Revkin voiced concern over a gap between “the consensus” of climate scientists and public acceptance of the theory of human-caused global warming. Revkin pointed to a study published in April by Dr. John Cook and other researchers, which claimed that
“…I can’t see either of these papers being in the next IPCC report. Kevin [Trenberth] and I will keep them out somehow, even if we have to redefine what the peer-review literature is!” —Phil Jones, Director of the Climatic Research Unit, July 8, 2004 by Steve Goreham, Master Resource Climatism, the belief that man-made greenhouse gases are
by Klaus-Eckart Puls and Sebastian Lüning (translated, edited by P Gosselin, No Tricks Zone) Currently this 2012/13 winter in Germany and over large parts of Europe we’ve been finding lots of cold, snow and ice – the fifth winter of this type in a row. Who can still recall the prognoses and claims of some alarmists
Lest you think the climate alarmist leaders focus on true science, here is a leaked 2010 email thread where the late Steven Schneider, Paul Ehrlich and others reveal what they think of those who do not follow their global warming religion. – Ed ————————————————————————– —– Forwarded Message —– From: “Stephen H Schneider” <shs@STANFORD.EDU> To: SECTION63@LSW.NAS.EDU
by Michael Trigoboff, Ph.D., Computer Science Dep’t, Portland Community College Philosophers Michael R. Nelson and Kathleen Dean Moore seem to think that everyone who disagrees with them on scientific issues related to global warming is evil. I am more of a scientist then either of them and I disagree with them, but not because I’m evil. I’m skeptical
Published by Financial Post (and also here since I am a signer – Ed) Policy actions that aim to reduce CO2 emissions are unlikely to influence future climate. Policies need to focus on preparation for, and adaptation to, all dangerous climatic events, however caused. Open Letter to the Secretary-General of the United Nations H.E. Ban Ki-Moon, Secretary-General,
Open Letter to the United States Senate You have recently received a letter from the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), purporting to convey a “consensus” of the scientific community that immediate and drastic action is needed to avert a climatic catastrophe. We do not seek to make the scientific arguments here (we
Regarding the National Policy Statement on Climate Change of the APS Council: As physicists who are familiar with the science issues, and as current and past members of the American Physical Society, we the undersigned urge the Council to revise its current statement* on climate change as follows, so as to more accurately represent the
by Harrison H. Schmitt, Apollo 17 Moonwalker, AmericasUncommonSense.com The Constitution of the United States of America sets clear limits on the powers of the Federal Government and permits exercise of those powers only in specifically enumerated activities that relate to providing for the “common defence“, promoting the “general Welfare“, and securing “the Blessings of Liberty”
Open Letter #3 from APS President, Wall Street Journal [This letter also responds to Open Letter #1] The Jan. 27 op-ed “No Need to Panic About Global Warming” is inaccurate in its characterization of the Climate Change Statement of the American Physical Society (APS), the nation’s leading organization of physicists with more than 50,000 members.
Open Letter #1 from Scientists, Wall Street Journal [Several signors to this letter contributed to the exhibits used by Climate Physics LLC in its successful Intervention of the Climate Petition by Our Children’s Trust, which would have forced the climate fraud upon Montana’s citizens and economy. – Ed] ________________________________________ A candidate for public office in
This lyrical misadventure is the result of hasty two-night extra-credit project I did many years ago for a physics class in high school. Frankly, looking back, some of these lines are pretty awful.. I’ve kept this up on the Web because people seem to like it, not because lines like “electrodynamics is more than playing
