From the Weather Isn’t Climate Department. Ah, memories of an English summer’s day on the beach when I was a kid – before Global Warming, that is: covered in goosebumps, sand in the ice-cream, the bucket and spade are halfway to… Read More ›

Non-governmental International Panel on Climate Change – Interim Report 2011
For an up to date summary of the huge body of science that challenges the “consensus”, check out the NIPCC report’s latest update here.
Bravo! ABC's balanced report on CLOUD
Credit where credit is due. I don’t want to knock Auntie just for the hell of it, so I am very happy to shower ABC Science with praise (OK, bit strong perhaps, maybe just a gentlemanly “well done” will suffice)… Read More ›
Official: climate change makes you crazy
It certainly makes me crazy – listening to the nonsensical ramblings of Gillard, Combet, Flannery, Brown, Milne, Gore and Garnaut is enough to send even the most level-headed individual completely round the bend. But here we have the totally impartial… Read More ›
Gore apes Combet: compares sceptics to "racists"
Remember Greg Combet nonsensically branding the Coalition’s position on climate a “white carbon policy” a few days ago? Now we have Al Gore (who he? – Ed) comparing sceptics with racists. Gore, like Combet, has no arguments left and has abandoned… Read More ›

Hurricane "Global Warming" Irene
As we all know, any and all weather events can now be attributed to climate change. What did we do before the AGW scare? If there was a large hurricane it was just the chaotic nature of the planet’s atmosphere… Read More ›
Reactions to CLOUD
The various polarised reactions to the CLOUD experiment’s initial results demonstrates how the climate debate has become mired in politics, petty point scoring and one-upmanship. What would a proper, impartial scientist say in response to yesterday’s news? I guess something… Read More ›
CLOUD experiment confirms cosmic ray action
This experiment, carried out at CERN, was to test Henrik Svensmark’s hypothesis that cloud cover could be modulated by galactic cosmic ray intensity, which in turn is modulated by the Sun’s magnetic field. Stronger magnetic field, fewer cosmic rays reach… Read More ›
Global sea level drops by 6mm – Flannery safe
Tim Flannery’s waterside property looks safe (for the moment at least) as a new paper shows global sea level dropped like a stone in much of 2010: So what’s up with the down seas, and what does it mean? Climate… Read More ›
