By Paul Homewood It was not just the US which had catastrophic weather in the 1970s. This article in the NOAA magazine of April 1974 shows just how worried scientists and governments were about global cooling:

In summary, this “strategy” is nothing more than a modern-day environmental quixote, tilting at windmills of pollution with a lance of impracticality and a shield of buzzwords like “environmental justice.”

Access to reliable and affordable power is just another thing Westerners have taken for granted, for far too long. A band of weather-obsessed ideologues have set about methodically destroying our once perfectly affordable and thoroughly reliable power supplies, by propounding the delusional notion that wind and solar can replace that well-designed system which has powered […]

Crony capitalists wallowing in wind and solar subsidies and their ideologue enablers make sure the buck always stops with you. The cost of those subsidies is not only endless, it is simply staggering. In Australia the combined figure for subsidies to wind and solar is now in excess of $15 billion annually, and with the […]

Famous British playwright William Shakespeare wrote about endemic Malaria in Britain in the 1500s. Malaria was the scourge of Scandinavia and Russia right up until the 20th century. But this has not stopped greens falsely claiming Malaria is a disease of warm climates.

By Paul Homewood One of my regular contacts has analysed wind power data over the last five years, using the official half-hourly National Grid data. The analysis highlights just how intermittent wind power can be: https://www.nationalgrideso.com/data-portal/historic-generation-mix/historic_gb_generation_mix

Almost without fail every time there is some oddball or unique weather event, climate alarmists immediately rushed to blame it on climate change whether or not there’s any facts to support it. Such is the case with Uber alarmist bill McKinnon founder of 350 dot org as well as “third act” and a supporter of […]

A decade from now, the wind and solar transition will resemble Alice’s trip down the rabbit hole – a place inhabited by lunatics and where nothing makes sense. Massive and seemingly endless subsidies have perverted the ordinary signals that free and open markets deliver. In Europe, the grand wind and solar rush has come to […]

Paul Sutton explains in his Daily Sceptic article There’s Nothing “Scientific” About Climate Models. Excerpts in italics with my bolds and added images. On Sunday’s BBC Politics, Luke Johnson asked for evidence that the recent Dubai flooding was due to climate change. Chris Packham glibly responded: “It comes from something called science.” This simply highlighted […]

“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert”. - J Robert Oppenheimer.
