Urban Flooding – It’s Not about Climate
Dr. John Robson investigates the claim that flooding is getting worse because of climate change, and finds that there's no more rain than there ever was, and no more flooding in rural areas. The problem is bungled water management in cities.

More Fake Five-Alarm Crises from the IPCC

Did 2021’s Hot Summer Spark New Green Extremism?

How ESG Standards Favor Toxic Petrostates

Correlation is not Equal to Causation
Here is a decent post on the potential correlation of solar sun spots to long term climate cycles. The reader is reminded that correlation does not equal causation. However, a lack of correlation usually suggests no causation. I will leave it up to readers to look at...
‘Germany’s George Monbiot’ Turns Climate Sceptic
When the Germans start running headlines like that in their biggest tabloid newspaper, you know that for the eco loons Der Krieg ist Verloren. It means “Global Warming stopped twelve years ago,” and it’s part of a serialisation being run by Bild (circulation: 4 million) of Germany’s newest surprise bestseller – a climate sceptical book called Die Kalte Sonne (The Cold Sun).
Global Warming Engine Unexpectedly Slows
As the world suffers through a mix of weather (warm winter temperatures) in the continental US and climate (cold weather) in Alaska and Europe, some interesting new numbers are starting to trickle in.
Government Cold on Coal
The provincial government has blindsided rural Manitobans again with their announcement of a complete ban on the use of coal for space and water heating in 2014. While coal doesn’t have a good reputation when it comes to clean energy, it’s cheap and it generates a lot of heat and in areas that are poorly served by alternatives, such as natural gas, its use is widespread.
Food Inflation and Biofuel Production: Will the Pursuit of Clean Energy be Made Off the Back of the World’s Poor?
Frontier Centre Intern Eric Merkley shows that the use of grains for biofuel production instead of feedstock can contribute to undesirable increases in the price of food.
Greens to Sceptics: Show Us the Money!: The campaign to get a tiny charity to reveal its backers is driven by a desire to stamp out any eco-criticism.
The first question asked about anyone making a non-conforming argument in the climate debate is ‘who funds them?’ And so it is with the Global Warming Policy Foundation (GWPF) – a three-man, cross-party, independent think tank with charitable status, which dared to challenge climate orthodoxy.
Climate Science Review Needed to Inform Pipeline Hearings Better: Real pipeline issues will be better handled with global warming concerns out of the way
The federal government should organise scientific and economic hearings about crucial projects like the Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline in order properly to inform citizens and to dilute the impact of radical climate change environmentalists
