It is no longer global warming because it isn't.

It is climate change because it does.

Men are never so likely to settle a question rightly as when they discuss it freely.

— Thomas B. Macaulay (1800-1859), Essay on Southey's Colloquies

All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

World on Fire Hottest Year Ever


#WorldonFire #HottestYearEver

"There were just 26 stations in 1880, only 4 in the southern hemisphere. Even in 1900, the 664 global stations was only 2.8% of the number in 2000.”

Contrary to what Greta Dumberg believes the world is not on fire and it is not the hottest year ever. Does Greta know the past in Sweden was warmer than it is now when CO2 levels were much lower than we currently enjoy?


And in the winter of 2020 parts of Sweden have been buried in white global warming.


The Medieval, Roman, Minoan periods and the Holocene Climate Optimum have all  been as warm or warmer than the present during the last 10,000 years - at a time when CO2 was at 280 ppm compared to today’s 415ppm. 

Some 2020 Examples of our world on fire are presented to counteract the continuous one sided presentation of weather events that support the alarmist view of a world warming out of control due to the human emission of CO2 from the burning of fossil fuels. 

Despite the rising heat trapping CO2 in our atmosphere: 


















Nothing that has occurred during the winter of 2019-2020 stands outside the bounds of natural variability. We have seen it all before.  

#ThereIsNoClimateEmergency

Climate change is NOT a clear and present danger. Has there ever been a year without extreme weather? Unwelcome  weather does NOT care how much CO2 is in the air. 





Climate Indicators from Around the World


Sea level  indicators - tide gauges, hotel building on island nations, beaches and atolls growing, hotel building where land sinking





























Around the world  much evidence of cooling can be found. 

The sea rise is not accelerating. 

Extreme weather is not increasing. 

Arctic sea ice is close to the long term mean.

Polar bears are fine.

Winter snow mass is on the rise.

Coral reefs continue to prove their resilience. Millions of years on the planet gives them a lot of experience with adaptation.

It was warmer in the past when CO2 was lower. How could that happen if CO2 is the driving force behind rising temperatures. 

Obviously, rising CO2 is NOT the climate change culprit. 

There is no need for an assault on our emissions.  In fact, rising CO2 is beneficial as the planet has been greening and crops have been increasing as CO2 has risen.

CO2 is clean and green. We owe CO2 an apology. 

TeenAge Dropout Misleads and Miseducates


And the world hails her as a guru. Why do we search for the omniscient among us? There are no people with special universal knowledge. We find our way through experiment and observation. 


Our house is on fire, I am here to say our house is on fire. According to the IPCC we are less than 12 years away from not being able to undo our mistakes.”

And in support of that assertion about a world on fire Mother Nature presents the following evidence. As heat trapping CO2 warms the world:



Wonder if Greta is enjoying what our house on fire has brought her? 











Does Greta know that less snow is evidence of a warming world? Does Greta know that CO2 was lower in the past than it is now? How can a world be warmer than it is now if rising CO2 is the driving force of rising temperature on our planet? Should record setting cold and snowfall be showing up in a house on fire? 

Teenage dropouts demonstrate why they should return to school and not be revered by a world searching for a messiah where none exists.

Hypocrite of the Year 2019



Could it be a tight race? Here are my nominations. No doubt there are thousands of other people of whom I am unaware who should not be so unfairly overlooked.





And the IPCC for ignoring the following:



It’s a tough choice. All would be worthy of this prestigious award. 

One can question TIME’s 2019 selection for POY. Other qualified persons of note: 




TIME does not have an enviable record of tasteful POY picks.

Just a little history of who was once considered “Person Of The Year” according to TIME magazine:
1938 -Hitler
1939 -Stálin
1942 -Stálin
1979 -Khomeini
2007 -Putin

When we idolize an out of school teenager as the world’s savior and guru haven’t the adults of the world admitted they don’t know what they are doing? Elevating a teenager to an exalted status is an abdication of responsibility and an admission that the alarmist cause is intellectually bankrupt.

Hocus Pocus Here is Your Diagnosis








Top down control


A changed economic system.

A changed way of life.



While the ruling elites continue to live as if there is no crisis.



This act is getting old. Let’s return to the real world and







CO2 is clean and green. Who knew.


And then the truth even from those who would control us.

"The proponents of the scary emergency need to be called out on this contradiction. No IPCC science supports the climate emergency. What the proponents of climate emergency are calling for is all cost with no benefit."
No wonder I am a skeptic of anthropogenic global warming/climate change - the news is so much better.

Many people have already reached the same conclusion.

Who to Believe?



The UN IPCC?


Millionaires?

Royalty?
Hollywood stars?
Politicians?

Vietnam News?
The Pope?
The Green Party of Canada?
Greta Thunberg?
Or scientists...
Or the peer reviewed scientific literature...
Or the expressions of Mother Nature... 


during solar cycle 24 minimum. 

Heat trapping CO2 wherefore art thou?
