The Climate Establishment is now pivoting from overt apocalypticism to what might be called ‘non-alarmist alarmism’, says Tilak Doshi. This is a posture that formally disowns the discredited scenario RCP8.5 while preserving every policy conclusion that scenario was used to support.

CO2’s greenhouse effect is the result of its interaction with the infrared of the electromagnetic spectrum, which is now largely saturated at today’s CO2 concentration of about 420 parts per million (ppm), say William Happer and Richard Lindzen. With so little unaffected infrared radiation left to interact with CO2 molecules, adding more of the gas is having a trivial effect and will produce even less warming in the future.

One of the most persistent claims in (European) climate politics is that weather disasters are becoming increasingly expensive because climate change is making extreme weather worse. But a new analysis by Roger Pielke Jr. shows that once economic growth is properly accounted for, Europe’s weather-related disaster losses have remained essentially flat since 1990. The post Europe’s weather losses are not rising (once adjusted for growth) appeared first on Clintel.

The highly touted renewables provided only 6% of the world’s primary energy supply last year, according to the Statistical Review of World Energy, released earlier this week. Robert Lyman analyses the important overall statistical trends for the Friends of Science Society.

We can now see a familiar rhetorical manoeuvre from the Climate Establishment, says Tilak Doshi: Every crisis becomes a reason to accelerate the energy transition, and every inconvenient cost is attributed to insufficient commitment to the cause.
