Today’s Weekend Australian includes an article that begins: “Iconic, ailing Australian satirist Clive James has penned a savage essay on climate change alarmism, controversially cooking everyone from Barack Obama to Kevin Rudd to Tim Flannery to Al Gore to Donald Trump in the boiled and rising ocean of his wit…” The essay in The Inquirer section […]
The last few days have been very hot across eastern Australia. The mainstream media have been reporting ‘unprecedented’ conditions. This fits a popular narrative, but its inconsistent with the original historical record. It was very hot in Australia in the late 1800s and the early years of the 1900s, particularly in outback Australia – at […]
After looking at hundreds of temperature series from different locations across Australia, I’ve come to understand that only cities show the type of warming reported by the IPCC, and other such government-funded institutions. Much of this warming is due to what is known as the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect: bitumen, tall-buildings, air-conditioners, and fewer […]
Media reports yesterday claimed that 2016 was another record hot year. However, close scrutiny of all the temperature data from the state of Victoria paints quite a different picture. When all 289 temperature series from Victoria are simply combined, the hottest years are in the early part of the record. In particular, 1914 is very […]
Charts that show year-on-year increases in temperature have become a symbol of all that is wrong with the world – or at least modernity and Western Civilization. So, why then, when such a chart was shown to a studio audience of opinion leaders, did it caused them to break-out in spontaneous applause? The Sydney Q&A […]
Despite an exceptionally cool end to this October, the CSIRO and Bureau of Meteorology have just put out a joint report claiming that there is going to be an increase in the number of hot days and thus an increased risk of devastating bushfires — based on homogenised (remodelled) temperatures, of course. CSIRO experts forecast […]
FOR over a decade the Bureau of Meteorology, and CSIRO have been predicting on-going drought in the Murray Darling Basin. Hundreds of scientists have been employed –at the expense of tax payers – to run General Simulation Models all predicting the same outcome. This forecast decline has been blamed on global-warming and has resulted in […]
The wild, wet weather across southern Australia this spring is a consequence of an unusually strong temperature gradient, especially evident in the following chart as warm water to the north of Australia (especially in the Timor and Arafura Seas), and the cold waters off the southwest of Australia. Former head of Australia’s National Climate Centre, […]

WHILE the storm that hit South Australia yesterday, Wednesday 28 September, was large and intense, the winds do not appear to have been particularly severe – at least not relative to what we often experience in northern Australia. For example, a Category 2 cyclone has wind gusts of at least 125 kilometres per hour. According […]
THERE is nothing new under the sun according to both the Bible and Shakespeare; and One Nation Senator Malcolm Roberts would not purport to be the first to claim the atmosphere cools the surface of the earth that is warmed by the sun. He stated this in his maiden speech in the Australian parliament on […]
