A stalagmite in a West Virginia cave has yielded the most detailed geological record to date on climate cycles in eastern North America over the past 7,000 years. The new study confirms that during periods when Earth received less solar radiation, … [Read more...] about 7000 Year Climate Record Shows Century-Long Droughts in North America and 1500 Year Solar Cycle

Climate Skepticism now Mainstream, But Australian PM Hides behind White Coats?
Popular Australian television current affairs program 60 Minutes ran the skeptical line on climate change on Sunday night. To be sure, there were only two skeptics on the segement Professor Richard Lindzen and Dr David Evans, but they did get a fair … [Read more...] about Climate Skepticism now Mainstream, But Australian PM Hides behind White Coats?
Gordon Robertson on a Molten Core
I have become curious about something. The core of the Earth is alleged to be molten. It's also a fact that the deeper you dig into the Earth, the warmer it gets. Where is that heat coming from... surely not from the Sun. What's the possibility that … [Read more...] about Gordon Robertson on a Molten Core
William Kininmonth on the Radiation of Energy and Global Warming
Could ‘the greenhouse effect’ be one of those things that everybody claims to understand because it is apparently so important, but in reality it is not supported by a credible scientific literature? That's the view of Bill Kininmonth, meteorologist … [Read more...] about William Kininmonth on the Radiation of Energy and Global Warming
Arctic Sea Ice Refuses to Melt
"Just a few weeks ago, predictions of Arctic ice collapse were buzzing all over the internet. Some scientists were predicting that the 'North Pole may be ice-free for first time this summer'. Others predicted that the entire 'polar ice cap would … [Read more...] about Arctic Sea Ice Refuses to Melt
Alan Siddons on Radiative Equilibrium
Radiative equilibrium is one of the foundation stones of radiative forcing theory. But it is not a law of physics, only a rather archaic and untested supposition found in climatology textbooks alone. "For the Earth to neither warm or cool, the … [Read more...] about Alan Siddons on Radiative Equilibrium
