10/6/19 - 10/12/19: The Past Week In News You Would like To Forget
Well, no surprises this past week, other than the good news from Democrat Rep. Ocasio-Cortez announcing that she will not be birthing any bloodline lame brains.
As one has come to expect, this past week the Democrats and their press public relation advocates continued to attack Americans, America, Republicans, conservatives, libertarians, and every institution that doesn't agree with them.
And the kangaroo, illegitimate, informal House impeachment inquiry has become so embarrassing that the Dems have now decided to hold secret meetings that are closed to the public and press.
The sham will continue until all good Americans simply boycott every TV network and cable news channel, which would starve the Democrat perps of their audience.
Alas, one should not hold their breath waiting for that to happen. (image source)

The Never Ending Renewable Green Energy Fiasco Continues
How do you identify a really stupid person?
Simple. If they advocate for or support "green" renewable energy over natural gas or nuclear power generation, you then know stuck-on-stupid is what you are dealing with.
Recent articles continue to document the renewable green energy fiasco that politicians and bureaucrats have implemented, much to the detriment of ordinary people.
Due to solar and wind inherent inefficiencies and lack of being reliable 24/7/365 sources of power, they are very expensive despite the claims of 'free.'
For example, this recent article about Germany, whose leaders decided that a major percentage of energy should be sourced from "affordable" green energy. Instead, they now have some of the highest electricity prices in the world, all due to stupid politicians believing the ludicrous claims regarding "cheap" solar and wind.
As this chart reveals, countries with the highest commitment to solar and wind have the highest electricity prices - definitely not good for residential living or commercial/industrial activities.
And much to the chagrin of the establishment elites, polls keep revealing that consumers are not willing to pay the higher costs associated with renewable energy solutions to battle "climate change." Even the gung-ho Brits are unwilling to pay the costs.
Now combine the pain of higher electricity costs that customers are feeling in their wallets with the massive tax subsidies necessary to keep the renewable energy prices from absolutely sky rocketing, and it becomes crystal clear that "green" energy initiatives are not economically sustainable.
And when the government subsidies are withdrawn, the solar/wind investments collapse.
Then there is the increasingly significant issue of green energy unreliability that consumers are now experiencing.
Finally, does an aggressive national commitment to wind/solar and other renewables come close to producing the wonderful claims from green energy advocates?
In a word, NOPE.
Back to the beginning of this article: Stupid is as stupid does, which in the case of green energy proponents is fairly obvious.

Another Study Demolishes The Simpleton Belief That CO2 Influences The Climate
Let's be brutally honest: the gullible and very stupid have been brainwashed to believe the propaganda that human CO2 emissions have a significant climate change impact resulting in severe weather events.
As this chart from a peer-reviewed research journal indicates, since ancient times, the climate has been in a constant state of change causing extremely low and high weather events, regardless of the atmospheric CO2 levels.
This group of researchers analyzed an almost 5 century record of streamflow volumes in the Southern Tibetan Plateau. Streamflow volume is driven by precipitation and weather extremes in either direction would be identified with this type of analysis.
"As seen there, perhaps the most striking feature of the record is the short eight year decline in streamflow from the highest value (487.1 m3 s-1) in 1871 to the lowest value (205.4 m3 s-1) of the nearly five-century-long record, which sharp transition was a completely natural occurrence and could not have been due to CO2 (because the vast bulk of the modern CO2 rise has occurred over the past six decades). Aside from the above-mentioned event, the record displays considerable variability at multiple time scales, yet there is no obvious trend or indication that there is anything unusual, unnatural or unprecedented in recent years of the streamflow record that would indicate rising atmospheric CO2 is having an effect....Further analyses indicate these periodicities are likely natural in origin; they correspond well with and are likely significantly driven by ENSO, the Asian summer monsoon, and other large-scale climate circulation features."
Additional examples of research indicating little, if any, climate change attributes related to CO2 levels.

More Proof That Predicted Catastrophic Modern "Global Warming" Does Not Exist
With all due respect to the profession of mainstream journalism, there is no such thing as rapid, catastrophic "global warming."
In fact, there are vast land and sea areas that are not warming, which seriously counters publicized statements that the world is suffering from a "global" climate condition. And claims of rapid, catastrophic "global" warming are simply fictional derivatives of imagination.
For example, the Southern Hemisphere's and tropical-latitude oceans currently have sea temperature anomaly measurements that are essentially the same as those found during the during the period of 1997-1999, some 20+ years ago.
And a critical example of a large land mass without significant warming is the contiguous land mass of the lower 48 U.S. states.
The above chart (click on to enlarge) is a plot of average U.S temperature anomalies and one does not need to be a climate scientist to discern from the plot that the fear-mongering about rapid, dangerous, and catastrophic warming is empirical nonsense.
Putting some flesh on the empirical science bones, the chart is plotted from the datasets produced by the world's only state-of-the-art climate/weather USCRN measurement system with 140 station sites all across the contiguous U.S.
Notice that since the USCRN sites went online in January 2005, over the last 14+ years the average U.S. temperature has had periods of both cooling and warming.
And when comparing the latest August 2019 12-month average (green circle) and the 8-month average (yellow star) with their respective beginning averages in 2005, it's clear that the current averages are lower.
Also, as the chart's 6th degree fitted trend line (black) indicates, the most recent warming has turned towards a cooling direction.
Based on these facts, it can be fairly surmised that the climate doomsday cult prediction of a global warming inferno is without empirical evidence, and it can justly be called anti-scientific as well. With a little greater specificity, the claim that human CO2 emissions has produced a global "tipping point" with runaway warming is demonstrably false.
For the record, including 2005, there has been 441 gigatonnes of CO2 emitted into the atmosphere through 2018, which represents an overall increase of 25%.
But where's the predicted rapid and dangerous "global" warming from all these emissions? Not in the U.S. Not in the immense waters of the Southern Hemisphere. And amazingly, not in a lot of other places: Ireland, China, Greenland, England, Finland, North Atlantic, Sweden, France, Central Europe, Japan, and other various countries.
In summary, apparently for politicians, celebrities, "journalists" and teenagers, science and empirical evidence are no longer to be taken seriously. Thus fossil fuels and their resulting emissions have become convenient scapegoats, nothing more. And wildly speculative climate change predictions are, unfortunately, tipping point catnip for the hysterical and feeble-minded.
Note: As occurs everywhere, in the U.S. during that 2005-2019 time span there were quite a few hot months; but the same can be said about cold months. When all is said and done, the hot period spans are canceled out by the cooler spans, which is what the 'average' natural climate cycle does. There has been regional warming and regional cooling as the the various regional climates continue to change; and climate expert predictions have failed to account for the non-consistent attributes of climate change.

Snowpocalypses Are Increasing? Researchers Debunk That Flaky Alarmist Claim
Climate doomsday snowflakes believe that snowflake storm intensity and frequency are increasing, due to man-made climate change from CO2 emissions.
To press there unsubstantiated claims, they even created new names - snowapocalypse, snowmageddon, snowzilla - for normal winter related weather events that used be called 'snowstorms' in more sane times.
Have CO2 emissions increased the intensity and frequency of modern era snowstorms versus the weather experience of the past?
Nope.
The adjacent graph represents the latest peer-reviewed research examining the historical record of large snowstorms over the past 1,000+ years in the Mediterranean region.
As the researchers documented, both the intensity and frequency of modern-era "snowpocalypses" are neither extraordinary nor exceptional when empirically analyzed in the full context of historical records.
"In particular, less snow fell during the Medieval Warm Period (~800-1300) while snowfall was much more prevalent and severe thereafter during the Little Ice Age (~1300-1850), which latter era witnessed the two "snowiest" centuries of the past millennium (the 17th and 16th centuries). Milder conditions followed thereafter with reduced snowfall severity conditions occurring from the 18th century onward to today. And of the most recent decades, Diodato et al. say that "snow occurrences have remained unchanged," adding that "the recent reduction in Italian snowfall intensity is not unprecedented over the past millennium, since comparable patterns of low snowfall intensity also occurred during the Medieval Climate Anomaly.""
Another example of 'those pesky stubborn facts' obliterating the climate change doomsday cult's narrative.
Additional severe weather event graphs.
Good News: Latest Research Confirms Rapid Greenland Ice Melt Has Disappeared Over Recent Years
Climate change hysteria has frequently focused on Greenland's past ice sheet loss of both mass and area.
Two new peer-reviewed studies debunk, with the current empirical evidence, another climate doomsday scenario promulgated by the alarmist cult. Specifically, the doomsday prediction that heavily populated coastal regions will soon be submerged due to Greenland's ice melt.
In fact, the ice loss deceleration has reached the point where scientists are now using the term 'stabilized' in reference to the ice sheet conditions in Greenland.
“The period 2007–2012 underwent a rapid loss of glacier area, compared to 2013–2018, in which glacier area was relatively stable, associated with a small area change."
The documented and unexpected deceleration is believed to be a result of a decrease in solar short-wave radiation, due to the unexpected increasing cloud coverage over recent years in the Greenland region.
Both of these unexpected events were not predicted by the "sophisticated" climate models and the "experts."
Additional documented prediction failures.

Gaslighting By Fake News: The Press Gets Debunked Again, This Time Over Alabama & Hurricane Dorian
What's new? Well, it's the same old, same old mainstream fake news.
How many hours and ink were spilled about SharpieGate? So much so that even crazy MSNBC started wondering about it.
The press went out of their way to mock Trump regarding the storm track of Hurricane Dorian and the potential of it causing serious issues for the state of Alabama. They essentially reported that Trump was lying and made up the threat to Alabama.
But as is almost always the case, this fake news by the mainstream press has been debunked. Plus, they were exposed as gaslighting the public about the original hurricane tracks predicted by NOAA.
The adjacent image is from NOAA and it reveals one of their original projected tracks of Hurricane Dorian.
NOAA actually went out of its way to support Trump's assertion about the threat to Alabama
And even CNN had an early report on the potential hit to Alabama, much to the chagrin of "anchor" Don Lemon.

Hurricane Fake News Emergency Alert: The U.S. Mainstream Media Is Prepared
With Hurricane Dorian headed towards the Florida coast, the mainstream media, Democrat politicians, social media influencers, and, of course, Hollywood celebrities are well prepared to provide us with their usual hurricane "science" discourse.
Instead of blathering on in attempts to convince their audiences about how hurricanes are getting worse and that evil Trump and those oil-loving Republicans are to blame, wouldn't it be great if they simply shared the real hurricane climate science and the empirical evidence?
Unfortunately, this is really wishful thinking on our part that our supposed betters would actually self-educate themselves before repeating anti-science fake news and climate change disaster porn.

Global Warming Causes Increased Rainfall Frequency & Intensity? Study Determines It's Not True
The climate change prediction that increased atmospheric CO2 and resultant global warming would cause a greater frequency and stronger intensity of rainfall has long been a staple of CAGW doomsday alarmism.
But has it proven to be true?
A recent study, conducted for the northern India geographic region, found that the hypothesized significant impact on rainfall - due to CO2 emissions and global warming - is not evident.
"In a test of this hypothesis, Kant (2018) examined the precipitation records of four major weather stations in Uttar Pradesh, India, namely Bareilly, Allahabad, Lucknow and Babatpur, over the period 1969 to 2014"....."In contrast to model predictions, Kant reports that "rainfall of different intensities in yearly, monthly, June-September (monsoon) [periods] for all the four stations is not statistically significant." Thus, it would appear that neither the CO2 rise nor the temperature increase of the past four-and-a-half decades was sufficient to drive changes in hourly rainfall intensity in northern India."
Those stubborn facts just keep ruining the doomsday cult narrative.

Another Study and Another Blow To Consensus "Fact" That Modern Climate Warming Is Unprecedented
Study after study has provided a multiplicity of evidence that the modern 21st century warming is not unprecedented, much to the chagrin and angst of elite alarmists and doomsday claimants.
Now we have a recent peer-reviewed study that examines 2,000 years of temperatures, which clearly reveals a past that indeed was warmer than present (see adjacent chart).
"Aside from the obvious millennial-scale climate oscillation seen in the temperature reconstruction, it is important to point out that there is nothing unusual, unnatural or unprecedented about current temperatures on the southern Tibetan Plateau (STP). As indicated by the horizontal red line depicting the current temperature, there have been multiple times during the past two millennia when temperatures were warmer than present, including the 400 year period from 850-1250 AD, despite their being 50% less CO2 in the atmosphere than there is today. Because of this fact, it is clear that rising atmospheric CO2 is having little, if any, effect on current STP temperatures witnessed during the Current Warm Period."
"But if not CO2, what is or could be the cause of the 20th century warming? Based on additional analyses performed by Guo et al., it was their conclusion that changes in solar irradiance "played the most important role in influencing the climatic variabilities over the STP on a multi-centennial timescale.""
Conclusion: Mainstream media, Democrat politicians, and Hollywood celebrities continue to spread consensus anti-science claims in regards to the current global warming facts.

Climate Doomsday Dies In Illumination: Severe Weather, Greenland, Corals, Extreme Precipitation, Global Cooling, & Existential Threat
It's been a bad week for the climate doomsday acolytes.
The bright white light of empirical evidence, new analyses, and recent published studies, which the mainstream media does not report on, continues to seep into the public consciousness.
Clearly, the climate facts do not line up well with the doomster claims and narratives, and people are more aware than ever of the falsehoods.
Claim that severe cold weather is result of melting Arctic sea ice is much to do about nothing.
Claim that Greenland was soon to melt to a sea of water was a hoax.
Claim that global warming is posing an extinction threat to the Great Barrier Reef.
Claim that global warming will cause more frequent and intense precipitation events.
Claim that global cooling is not possible due to the greenhouse gas CO2.
Claim that climate change is causing more frequent 'hot' days during summer.
Claim that climate change would devastate food production.
Claim that CO2 is the dominant force behind climate change.
Claim that climate change is an existential threat.
By any measurement, consensus science published by the establishment media is a cornucopia of failed predictions.

The Blacklist: Establishment Anti-Science Journal Advocates For Blacklisting Censorship
The politically correct sewer hole that the once premier science journal Nature has crawled into can no longer be contested.
Its recent publication of a study calling for a blacklist for collusion-censorship by mainstream media and science journals of contrarian scientific opinions and debate is now completely undeniable.
"Nature, the former science giant, just launched the tenets of science over the event horizon. This paper is Argument from Authority rolled into false equivalence, and powered with cherry-picked errors in both category and in categorization. Nonsense on a rocket. It’s not what science is, and it’s not what journalism should be either. And Nature is supposed to be both. Judith Curry calls it The latest travesty in ‘consensus enforcement’ and the worst paper she has ever seen in a reputable journal."
"What’s troubling is not enemies list,they’ve been around for a long time. What’s troubling is that they are now laundered by academic journals & used by scientists & journos to silence or otherwise cause professional harm to their peers. It is really amazing. And it works."

Another Inconvenient Climate Science Truth: Humans Turning World Into A Green Paradise
Per recent multiple peer-reviewed studies, climate doomsday alarmists can no longer deny the scientific consensus: CO2 and global warming are returning the earth's biosphere to a green paradise of lush vegetation. (image source)
“Carbon‐climate interactions led to significant increases in tropical forests and the forests of North America, Eurasia, and China.”
"Due especially to the rise in CO2 concentrations, 52% of the globe’s vegetated lands have shown statistically significant greening/gross primary production trends since 1981, whereas just 12% of vegetated areas have been browning. CO2’s greening effect has been underestimated by 60% with outdated models."
"According to scientists, the overwhelming majority of the “significant increases in tropical forests and the forests of North America, Eurasia, and China” since the early 1990s can be attributed to the combination of CO2 fertilization (56%) and climate change (35%)."
"Historical increase of atmospheric CO2 concentration, from 280 to current 400 ppm, has resulted in enhanced GPP [gross primary production/greening] due to its radiative and physiological effects"
"Our central finding is, the effect of ambient CO2 concentration on terrestrial photosynthesis is larger than previously thought, and thus, has important implications for future carbon cycle and climate.”
“Climate change associated with rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration may have impact on crop production and soil health. Increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration may enhance crop growth with higher demand for nutrients by the crop....Grain and biomass yield of rice was significantly higher under elevated CO2 condition."
“The relative top heights of the young [Ed: tree] stands [Ed: sessile oaks] were significantly higher than of the older stands, which means that the overall growing conditions were better in the last 30-35 years due to atmospheric changes..."
And humans, the industrial revolution, and economic prosperity deserve a robust round of applause from everyone.

Dear Greta: Sorry, But The Science Tells Us There Is No Climate Change Crisis
The doomsday weary populace of the world is plagued by an overload of climate change false messiahs who really should not be listened to, but unfortunately, the extremely gullible continue to do so.
And the major promoters of climate-porn to the gullible is none other than the mainstream media, and pandering liberal/left politicians who can't even pass a basic fact check by a comrade-in-arms news outlet.
And it is with great and absolute certainty that no one in their right mind should be listening to Greta Thunberg. A teenager who is even more gullible - due to a woeful lack of humility, experience, wisdom, and knowledge - than even the anointed elites.
Now compare the anti-science falsehoods from the mouths of political partisans, Hollywood celebrities, and teenager messiahs with the recent real-world facts and evidence being published about the climate and the empirical science.

Corporate Green Virtue Signaling Not All It's Cracked Up To Be: Budweiser's Wind Turbine P.R. Disaster
Don't be impressed by Budweiser's clean energy virtue signaling.
They must hope you'll be too beer drunk that you'll miss the serious issues that their "green" wind energy projects are creating for both nature and humans.
Master Resource has a good write-up in regards to the severe shortcomings and unintended consequences of Budweiser's lame efforts to appear corporately responsible for the environment and climate.
“It’s time for Anheuser-Busch to shed its superficial ‘green’ veneer and take corrective action to reverse the harms its wind purchases have caused. This includes publicly abandoning the ‘100% renewable energy’ goal which, if continued, is certain to bring more, and greater international destruction.”
CO2 Acidification: Is The Southern Ocean Marine Food Chain Ecosystem At Risk?
A recent "study" by "scientists" playing with their computer climate model simulations guesses that there might be a future depth shift of the Southern Ocean carbonite event horizon based on simulated output from the model.
Editor Note: The aforementioned depth shift is speculated to occur when human emissions of CO2 infiltrate the ocean's waters, thus causing an acidifcation process associated with lower pH.
They report that maybe the ocean's pteropods species (a sea snail) will be harmed and may not be able to adapt.
The model output results do not seem to correlate well with known scientific facts..."Some estimate it began as early as 2006 in discrete locations, while others predict it will begin as late as 2038. The research suggests that the change may be inevitable..."
Their scientific conclusion from zero empirical evidence? "If that occurs, it could impact marine food webs significantly and lead to cascading changes across ocean ecosystems, including disruptions of vital global fisheries." And, "These factors put us closer to a threshold that might be harmful for a lot of organisms,."
In comparison to the above "scientists," there are scientists who actually conduct experiments to determine outcomes that are based on observed reality and not simulations.
For example, this 2018 study by 9 scientists determined that actual phytoplankton organisms, a major food source for the Southern Ocean ecosystem, were test for survival in waters with a lower pH - i.e. acidified waters. The scientists found the increased levels of CO2 "did not have a significant impact on the [phytoplankton] community, either individually or in combination with other factors,".
Then there is this study by 7 scientists who investigated the impact of different levels of elevated water CO2 on Southern Ocean adult krill, a crucial marine food staple for blue whales and other mammal species.
What did they find? "Ericson et al. state that "the measured physiological processes in adult Antarctic krill were robust to near-future ocean acidification (1000-2000 µatm pCO2)." In particular, they note that "the survival rate of krill subject to near-future pCO2 increased by up to 11%" and that such pCO2 levels "did not affect the size of adult krill," nor their ability to moult, grow, store fat or mature."
Getting back to the pteropods, this 2018 scientific study with the apt title, "Pteropods counter mechanical damage and dissolution through extensive shell repair", pretty much counters the pteropod doomsday scenario conjured up by the computer simulation jockeys.
The study's 5 scientists determined the following: ""the ability of L. helicina [pteropod] to repair shell damage in naturally undersaturated conditions indicates that this species has more potential to counteract the deleterious effects ocean acidification may have on their shells than previously considered." ...it adds "to the growing body of evidence that many polar calcifiers, exposed to undersaturated waters, can withstand and repair damage to their shells, perhaps on account of natural exposure to heightened physical and chemical variability, which have resulted in organisms developing or exhibiting an inherent resilience strategy.""
In summary, per the real-world science, the Southern Ocean food chain ecosystem appears not to be at risk for CO2 emissions.
One should remember that there is no computer simulation substitute for real scientific investigation and research.
Unfortunately, climate computer models have harmed the scientific endeavor and reputation with simulated doomsday results that have little basis in reality. It is our opinion, as we have stated before, policymakers across all forms of government should never rely on output from computer models - they are fundamentally flawed and promulgated by agenda-driven "scientists."
7/1/19-7/13/19: Democrats' Divisiveness, Hate & Violent Rhetoric Tearing At Fabric of Society
Not only are the liberals/leftists/progressives taking their opinions and policy positions to the extreme fringe left of American politics, in doing so they are producing a very loud and vocal stream of hate, intolerance, violence, intimidation, harassment, mistruths, distortions, degradations, censorship, incitement, and anti-American sentiments that are unprecedented in modern U.S. history.
The daily sources of these destructive and divisive forces are numerous and widespread, including Democratic Party politicians, mainstream media, Hollywood, government employees, educational institutions, non-profit organizations, the tech industry, entertainment personalities, and even the Democrat voter base.
Below are a multitude of headline examples from the first couple of weeks of July 2019 that provide ample proof Democrats have become seriously unhinged from Americans, thus threatening the peaceful coexistence and mutual collaboration of our diverse 'melting pot' of different ethnicities, religions, and political opinions.
Democrats have eagerly put a target on our joint society and cultural structure, which makes one sometimes wonder if they are actually colluding with the Chinese and Russians to bring America down.

Climate Doomers: How Accurate Are Their Predictions?
Climate change predictions by alarmist scientists and activist 'doomers' have been absolutely atrocious. Possibly (being generous), there has been limited 'accuracy' here and there, but remains sufficiently insufficient to demonstrate even a minuscule level of actual, consistent reliability.
The constant litany stream from politicos, media sources and celebrities of failed climate catastrophe predictions is wide and deep and seemingly knows no bounds.
And this article provides a brief summary of where we are headed, if these bureaucratic-loving and power hungry politicians produce policies and regulations based on the proven failed prediction capabilities of the "experts." Needless to say, it's not going to be very pretty if they are successful.
The good news is that these establishment elites self-identify as liars since no truthful person would ever repeat anti-scientific, imbecilic doomsday trash, such as the end of humanity within a generation.
The bad news is that the USA's Democratic Party embraces the lies and is eagerly pushing the climate anti-science alarmism on a daily basis as the 2020 election edges closer.
Blatant significant dishonesty to mislead voters is a risky electoral strategy yet, unfortunately, now appears to be a go-to favored method for most Democrats on a host of important issues.
UK Project Reveals Cost of Retrofitting Homes To Reduce CO2 Emissions Is Exorbitant & Not Viable
The project architects had hoped for achieving an 80% CO2 decrease by replacing all existing appliances with newer more efficient ones; by increasing full wall insulation; by adding underfloor insulation; and etc.
Instead, a 60% CO2 reduction was achieved. The estimated cost of doing the same for every UK home would amount to a total of $5.6 trillion, which is about $193,000 per home (there are 29 million UK homes). The payback period from the energy savings for each home owner would be 150 years.
Assuming that same style of retrofit was done for the approximately 138 million U.S. homes, which tend to be larger than UK homes, the total retrofit cost would be some $26 trillion for just a 50-60% CO2 reduction.
And that's just for the U.S. residential units. Add on the retrofit cost of all commercial, industrial, and government structures and entire cost for the U.S. would be significantly higher.
It's not just the UK retrofit project that throws real shade on the Green New Deal's insanely expensive concept of retrofitting homes for "maximum" CO2 reductions. A study out of Australia suggests that decreases in both CO2 and total home energy usage would not be significant in long run.
Those Stubborn Facts: Research Indicates That CO2 Emissions Have Zero Impact On Temperatures In Central Asia
Central Asia represents a large swath of the globe's land area where one would expect that the "powerful" temperature impact of humanity's CO2 would be rather robust.
Although the area exhibited warming in the 20th century, it is not much different than earlier warming from periods centuries ago (see graph at bottom).
And there has been a recent late 20th century cooling that is attributed to natural factors.
"[T]he recent cool-moist period from 1985 to 2000 has been related to the Arctic Oscillation...During this recent cool-moist period, ice mass accumulation of the glaciers in the Russian Altai Mountains was observed and Narozhniy and Zemtsov (2011) connected this phenomenon to annual precipitation increased by 8% – 10% especially in winter and spring (April-May) as a result of a strengthening of the zonal circulation over the Altai Mountains.”
Conclusion: Those stubborn facts again get in the way of the catastrophic anthropogenic global warming doomsday claims. Central Asia's warming and cooing during both the past and modern era look to be more a function of natural volcano variations and ocean oscillations.

Ocean Acidification Study: Unexpectedly, Atlantic Salmon Grow & Thrive With Increased Acidification
Acidification of ocean waters from human CO2 emissions has raised concerns that aquatic life would be severely impacted. Yet, actual studies testing acidification levels on different species more often than not reveal that sea life is not impaired.
Adding to that empirical evidence is a new study on Atlantic salmon smolt.
"In a test of the above hypothesis, McCormick and Regish examined "the effect of future ocean acidification on the salinity tolerance and early seawater growth of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar smolts."..."Results of the analysis, in the words of the authors, revealed that "ocean acidification will not negatively affect the survival and ion regulatory ability [and, hence, salinity tolerance] of S. salar smolts," Furthermore, McCormick and Regish add that "rather than have a detrimental effect, ocean acidification conditions may actually improve the growth of S. salar in the first 2 weeks after seawater exposure." With respect to this latter parameter, Figure 1 graphically portrays the mean specific growth rates of the fish inhabiting the two seawater pH regimes, revealing 40 percent higher specific growth rates of Atlantic salmon in the ocean acidification treatment compared to ambient seawater pH."
Possible conclusion: CO2 makes for very happy fish.
New Study: U.S. States That Imposed Renewable Energy Goals Resulted In Consumers Paying An Additional $129 Billion
Green Renewables: It's all about the Benjamins.
Every country that has attempted to force solar and wind energy sources on their national grid have all discovered the same thing: the cost of retail electricity jumps with the consumer being the ultimate chump that has to fork over more money to the providers.
Study out of University of Chicago has determined the same result happened in the 29 U.S. states that imposed Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS).
"RPS "significantly increase average retail electricity prices, with prices increasing by 11% (1.3 cents per kWh) seven years after the policy’s passage into law and 17% (2 cents per kWh) twelve years afterward," the economists write."..."All in all, seven years after passage, consumers in the 29 states had paid $125.2 billion more for electricity than they would have in the absence of the policy,"
And the money flowing out of consumer wallets - for dubious climate change "improvements" - will only keep climbing faster as renewable % goals are increased.
And making the pain even worse for consumers. is the following comment from the researchers:
"But are renewables cost-effective climate policy? They are not. The economists write that "the cost per metric ton of CO2 abated exceeds $130 in all specifications and ranges up to $460, making it at least several times larger than conventional estimates of the social cost of carbon."
That last comment indicates the massive stupidity of today's virtue signaling politicians who could care less about the real impacts on society and constituents when imposing regulatory schemes that have been proven failures wherever implemented.
Green New Deal Footprint: 100% Solar or Wind Renewable Energy Sources Require A Ludicrous Amount Of Land Space
(click on to enlarge)
The Green New Deal, as supported by most Democrats, envisions a U.S. power consumption market that is 100% served by renewable energy sources - primarily solar and wind renewables.
Is it hypothetically possible that either solar or wind, or some combination of the two, could deliver 100% of U.S. energy needs in the future?
Sure, but in reality it would not be practical, nor achievable, nor a desired outcome.
A very gigantic stumbling block to either wind or solar are the ludicrously huge land space requirements that are essentially insurmountable.
Using the total U.S. power 2017 consumption (estimated) as the goal to be met, either the wind or solar solutions would need to be able to generate 97.7 'quads' (97.7 quadrillion BTUs) on a yearly basis. That BTU figure converts to approximately 28,633 annual terrawatts, which in turn translates to an annual 28,633,000,000,000,000 watts consumed.
As the adjacent graphic indicates, whether it's a 100% wind renewable solution or a 100% solar solution, the approximate space needed in the continental U.S. would be astronomical for either, making these energy solutions politically and economically nonviable.
In contrast, even with current reactor technology, the land requirement for a nuclear solution (see green-filled rectangle on map) is a physical sliver of either solar or wind needs. In fact, the land needed by nuclear would amount to an approximate space as small as Connecticut.
And if the U.S. were to pursue a Gen-IV nuclear technology solution, such as molten salt reactors, the new reactors could be placed on the existing nuclear plant sites to use the old radioactive waste as fuel that is currently being stored at nuclear sites. Yes, Gen-IV technology can consume the old stored waste as fuel.
And because nuclear facilities produce energy 24/7/365, they do not require the same natural gas, pumped storage, or battery storage back up capability that wind and solar require, due to their being intermittent sources of energy. (The method of back up needed by renewables will also add to the the total land area requirements, which is not depicted on map image.)
Then there is the issue of new electrical transmission lines to be constructed. Because of geographical size of the solar/wind options, the number of new transmission lines to serve all the different wind/solar energy farms will be multiple times more than that required by the nuclear option.
Finally, as a plus, the Gen-IV technology is safe from melt down or potential containment vessel explosions due to its inherent design fundamentals. Conceivably, due to less risk, the total land needed for such technology might end up being less than the older nuclear plant sites.
Due to land requirements alone, it would behoove politicians of both parties to plan for and promote an industry standard design of the Gen-IV reactor technology to be adopted and installed as quickly as possible. It should become the nation's major source of electricity generation, along with smaller installations of solar and wind where locations favor their utilization - i.e., the sunny and windy regions.

Note: The land requirements for nuclear, solar, and wind were supplied from this NEI.org article. The adjacent table is a summary of the basic information used to calculate the land requirements assuming that all power consumption for all sectors would be in the form of electricity from non-fossil fuel sources, including transportation and heating. For the above U.S.map image, the square mile size of each U.S. state -- used to visualize the approximate land mass needed for each energy production source. Best case scenarios assumed for solar and wind capacity efficiency; industry average scenario used for nuclear capacity efficiency. Existing hydro power generation (about 2.9% of 2017 total) would slightly reduce amount of land required by wind, solar, and nuclear. Offshore wind farms could be utilized but they may ultimately be 2 to 3 times more costly; and will be exposed to greater natural weather and environmental stresses that cause more frequent operational maintenance/repair that will likely be difficult and lengthy.
Settled Science? Only 12 Years Until U.S.A. Is Burnt To A Crisp From #CO2 #GlobalWarming & #Climate Change?
(click on to enlarge)
Does @AOC's prediction that we are all going to fry within 12 years because of CO2 emissions have any basis in empirical reality? (Or, for that matter, does her #GreenNewDeal utopia?)
Here is a chart from the NOAA National Centers For Environmental Information. It is a plot of the maximum temperatures for the hottest U.S. month - July - going back to 1895.
The trend line (blue line) plotted by NOAA reveals that maximum temperatures in July have been on a declining trend of -0.07°F per century since 1914 through July 2018.
And if the exact same NOAA plot was done for August maximum temperatures - the 2nd hottest month for U.S. summers - there is a declining trend of -0.26°F per century since 1928.
Unequivocally, the recent maximum temperatures over the most recent 5 years, during the two hottest months of summer, are not unprecedented.
Below is a table of the 10 hottest months since 1895, along with the respective global atmospheric CO2 level at the time. The lack of correlation between hottest years and CO2 is striking.
Clearly, all the human CO2 emissions produced during the modern era have not significantly changed the overall trend of maximum temperatures since the early 20th century.
Conclusion: The AOC climate change fearmongering, along with her fellow Green New Deal Democrats', is a narrative without any empirical evidence. The narrative that U.S. adults, children, and grandchildren will to survive in a 'living hell' that will destroy our society within the next 12 years is highly, highly unlikely. Per the evidence presented in the chart and table, we have survived warmer temperatures in the past, and will do so in the future because we've adapted and can now better cope with both higher and lower temperatures (thank the modern advances in technology, engineering, medicine, and food production and they will continue).
Note: Trend lines are not predictions. They provide a sense of direction from the past to a specific endpoint, but they provide absolutely no proof of what will take place in the future, especially with a global climate that is dominated by large natural oscillations and variations.

Winning: Trump's Energy & Climate Polices Bring Obama's Global Warming Peak To Cooling Climate Status
(click to enlarge)
HadCrut 4.6, the gold-standard global temperature dataset, confirms that Trump's energy and climate policies are delivering dramatic results the benefit of mankind!
After global warming temperature trends hit a post-1950 peak under the Obama administration, Trump has dropped the Obama's scary warming peak to a cooling status for the last 5 years.
Yes, temperatures have now decelerated to a rate of a cooling climate.
Obama couldn't lower the seas as promised but Trump lowered the world's fever of ever increasing temperatures.
One never tires of 'Winning.' :-)

New Peer-Reviewed Study: An Example of Why "Global Warming" Is Not Global
(click on to enlarge)
What many journalists and politicians do not realize is that climate change warming is not global. At any given time, there are regions of the world that are warming, while at the same time other regions are either cooling or exist within a stable temperature range.
An example of the actual real-world climate regime is the South China Sea denoted by the accompanying chart.
A group of researchers from China produced a better methodology to reconstruct a historical dataset of sea temperatures for the month of March from 1893-2011.
The findings from their research?
"...above-average temperatures occurred in 1904-1913, 1929-1948, 1961-1973 and 1991-2006. Below-average temperatures, on the other hand, occurred in 1914-1925, 1949-1960, 1979-1990 and 2007-2011. What is particularly insightful about the reconstruction, however, is the absence of any apparent anthropogenic influence on the 119-year record of SST variability. In fact, there appears to be nothing unusual, unnatural or unprecedented about current temperatures. Indeed, temperatures of the past four decades have remained relatively stable over the whole length of the record."

And on the other side of the world, we have the example of a cooling Ireland, which clearly seems to have missed this "global warming" that everyone in media, Hollywood, and D.C. continuously claim - obviously, without ever checking the actual evidence.
But, don't hold your breath expecting either the mainstream media or politicians or celebrities pushing the climate change alarmism to inform the public that "global warming" is not truly global.
Climate Change Apocalypse Cult: Does Empirical Evidence Support AOC's Doomsday In 12 Years Prediction?
Does AOC's (Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez) well publicized and dramatic prediction that climate-doomsday will strike humanity in a very short 12 years have any empirical validity?
If indeed that is the case, then surely global warming must be accelerating at a fevered rate that should easily be detected within today's known empirical measurement evidence, or not.
Per the CAGW hypothesis, the coming climate collapse prediction demands that the rapid global warming acceleration be closely linked with the undisputed continuous growth of atmospheric CO2 levels.
But does the empirical evidence support such a link?
The adjacent chart plots the global warming acceleration per century rates (12 month, 36 month, 60 month, and 120 month) using the HadCrut global temperature dataset through February 2019. In addition, the levels of atmospheric CO2 are plotted.
The temperature plots show a wide range of acceleration/deceleration, especially for the shorter time frames.
Viewing the chart (click on to enlarge), it becomes obvious that a major 12-month acceleration trend can turn quickly into a major deceleration trend - a 40 degree +/- change in direction is not uncommon.
Currently, both the 36-month (bright red) and 60-month (bright green) are exhibiting a cooling rate (respectively, a -5.9°C cooling/century rate and a -2.1°C cooling per century rate).
The 120-month acceleration rate is falling but still in warming mode at +2.6°C/century; and the 12-month acceleration rate of 10.9°C warming rate/century has reversed its trend from a -31.8°C cooling rate reached in December 2017.
Putting the current 120-month (i.e. 10-year) acceleration rate in context, as recently as October 2013 there existed a deceleration period - i.e. a minus cooling rate trend. In addition, the February 2019 rate is significantly below the highest warming peaks of November 1983, September 1988, and September 2002; and it is below the pre-1950's peaks of 1941 and 1916.
The good news is that there is no indication in the chart's plots that anything extraordinary is now taking place suggesting there is a total climate system of "rapid" accelerated warming. There is nothing there that would provide a reasonable rational basis for any fear of climate change destruction in 12 years.
Since the actual current trends do not support the AOC climate change doomsday claim, is there at least any empirical evidence that establishes a strong link between atmospheric CO2 levels and rapid acceleration of warming trends?
Nope.
The correlations between the CO2 levels and the rate of temperature increase is close to being nonexistent. For the 12-month rate the r2 is +0.0006; the 36-month r2 is +0.008; the 60-month rate r2 is +0.04; and the 120-month r2 is +0.14.
With such low r2's, the claim that CO2 levels are a dominant forcing which determine the rate of increase in global warming is a hypothesis without empirical clothing. And puts into serious question the validity of the overall CAGW hypothesis.
Conclusion: Based on an analysis of the gold-standard global temperature dataset and current atmospheric CO2 levels, there is conclusive evidence that acceleration/deceleration rates of temperature are within a natural variation range, with little to any apparent relationship or enhancement from greenhouse gases, such as CO2. Doomsday from CO2 greenhouse emissions within 12 years is beyond unlikely.

Latest Peer-Reviewed Research: Canadian North Experienced Warmer Temperature Periods Than Modern Era
Both higher and lower temperature spans during pre-industrial periods are evident in the boreal forested areas of Quebec, Canada.
"Hoping to provide some additional knowledge of Holocene climate fluctuations in the boreal region of north-eastern Canada, the six researchers thus developed a new summer temperature proxy by analyzing chironomid assemblages from lake sediment cores obtained from Lac Aurelié. The new record spanned 8200 years with an average temporal resolution of 45 years."
During the Holocene Thermal Maximum, temperatures were approximately 0.9°C warmer than now; and during the Medieval Warming Period, temperatures were about 1.0°C higher than in modern era.
The Little Ice Age period from the 1400's to 1800's had summer temperatures cooler than modern era by 2.1°C.
"In light of the above findings, it would appear that there is nothing unusual, unnatural or unprecedented about current summer temperatures in central Quebec, which fall well within the range of natural variability for this area."
Climate Change: Worried About A 2 Degree Rise In Temperatures? Don't Be
|
|
This article points out the fact that Europe has already experienced a 2 degree Celsius temperature increase since 1750, as shown in the chart on the right.
Yet, the predicted climate change apocalypse, cataclysm, disasters, calamities, tragedies, and destruction from the global warming 2°C meltdown have not taken place across Europe and don't seem likely to happen anytime in the near future.
Instead, as the left chart indicates, overall death rate has plummeted, along with an incredible increase of livelihood prosperity and health; and all the while when atmospheric levels of CO2 were growing fast. Way back in 1750, Europe was just starting to crawl out of the depths of Medieval backwardness with the onset of the Age of Enlightenment.
"In summary:
•We’ve done the two degree Celsius experiment.
• The lack of any climate-related catastrophes indicates that warming is generally either neutral or good for animal and plant life alike.
• Climate related deaths are only about a twentieth of what they were a hundred years ago.
• The people of the planet generally don’t see climate as an important issue. Fact Check: They are right."
What if another 2 degree increase occurs across Europe by 2100AD? Probably Europe will gain even more prosperity, health, and happiness and still without the doomsday scenarios portrayed by "experts."
In The Real World, Existential Threat of Global Warming + Climate Change Is A Double-Nothingburger
The mainstream journalists have been reporting over the last 20 years that global warming was dangerously accelerating due to greenhouse gas emissions, primarily CO2.
They reported that this rapid temperature elevation would bring untold climate change disaster and calamity to humanity - per the climate model based speculations - if we did not cease using the fossil fuels that produced the CO2.
Yet, despite growing emissions that now surpass 400 ppm in the atmosphere, at the end of 2018, according to HadCrut annual global temperature dataset, the globe warmed by a measly +0.056°C since 1998 - not even a tenth of a degree over 20 years.
A nothing-burger.
(Note: see the +0.056°C increase on adjacent thermometer where the small white dots represent the 1998 temperature.)
If that 20-year amount of "warming" is repeated every 20 years, then by the end of 100 years, global warming would have increased a barely measurable +0.3°C degree. This is not your AOC's warming that will end the world in a short 12 years.
In addition, the last 20 years of actual warming does not match well with the predicted warming from the most sophisticated climate models' compilation. For the 20 years ending 2018, the models' approximate mean estimate of global warming is +0.50°C .
Thus, the expert predicted warming is roughly 8 times greater than actual.
All of the above tells one that actual warming has not been either extreme or dangerous.
This has been literally worry-free warming over the last 2 decades notwithstanding the climate model scenarios of excessive near-death-warming that must be upon us.
Besides the recent actual tiny warming, there also have been multiple peer-reviewed studies published over the last 12 months that establish catastrophic global warming to be more science fiction than scientific reality. For example:

SUMMARY: There exists no empirical evidence, nor research studies based on actual empirical evidence, indicating that humanity is being threatened by disastrous warming or associated climate change manifestations. On the contrary, real world indications are that natural climate changes do occur but they do not amount to the claimed existential menace, even with the increase of atmospheric greenhouse gases. These facts confirm that proposed billions to trillions of American's dollars should not be spent on unproven and highly controversial attempts to fix what amounts to non-threatening global "warming" and mild climate "change."
Latest Peer-Reviewed Research: "North America (180-0°N, 15-60°N) has been characterized as a “major cooling center”"
From this recent article, the main takeaways from 2019 study are:
North America (180-0°N, 15-60°N) has been characterized as a “major cooling center” by the authors of a new paper (Gan et al., 2019) published in Earth and Space Science...The continent warmed from 1982-1998, but a cooling trend since 1998 has nearly wiped out all the previous warming...Overall, there has been no significant temperature change in North America since 1982.
Climate science alarmists are devastated by these findings and are scrambling to smear its scientific authors rather than challenge the empirical evidence, one would imagine.
Then again, possibly the alarmists will finally admit defeat by accepting the skeptical AGW viewpoint - that CO2 is not the dominant forcing in climatic trends, it is a minor one at best.
The authors of this study assess the likely reason for the cooling as being a natural climate change phenomenon from one of the known natural oscillations/cycles.
This study should again confirm that current climate predictions from "experts" and their computer models have been fabulously wrong.
Conclusion: Politicians and bureaucrats should table any discussions and regulations in regards to actual climate and energy policies, since the assumptions and hypothesis being utilized are clearly without scientific merit.
Amazingly, Another Country With A Winter Cooling Trend, Despite The 'Warming' Prediction Due To CO2
A few days ago, we discussed Japan's cooling winter temperature trend and now it's Germany's turn. If Italy also develops a similar cooling trend, it will be the new #ClimateChange Axis, so to speak.
As usual, we are beating a dead horse - climate expert predictions that are based on the trace gas CO2 are worthless.
No climate or energy policy should ever be based on computer models that are focused on human emission of carbon dioxide. These models cannot simulate natural climate cycle variation at all and thus make for incredibly lousy prediction outputs.
Just another case of those stubborn facts getting in the way of pseudo science by simulation.
Climate Science Truth-Crisis: The Climate Change Fear-Mongering Is No Crisis
The Democrats are now pursuing a media propaganda strategy that purposefully misleads the American public with #hysterical claims about climate change.
The propaganda represents a 'truth-crisis' that has no basis in reference to empirical evidence.
Joe Bastardi, who has some 35 years of weather/climate forecasting at prominent organizations, provides the adjacent climate evidence that clearly debunks the cult-like nonsense about "disastrous" climate change impacts.
Top-Left: Global warming has not caused permanent droughts in the U.S. that are claimed by alarmists.
Top-Right: Snow coverage is actually increasing across the N. Hemisphere contrary to doomsday #experts."
Bottom-Left: Occurrences of violent tornadoes in the U.S. have dropped significantly since 1954.
Bottom-Right: Opposite of the Democrats' propaganda, both the frequency and intensity of hurricanes has declines in total contrast to the UN's and official climate agencies have predicted.
Although the climate change fear-mongering by the Democrats is required to justify their proposed socialist 'Green New Deal', in reality, the climate crisis does not exist.
