“Change Would Be Healthy at U.S. Climate Agencies”​: It has become routine for press releases and the press to avoid mentioning any margin of error.

Thought Piece The evidence continues to mount that several climate agencies, like the NOAA and NASA, have been cooking the climate books for years; and, to make matters worse, the major media exaggerates the cooked books, because it believes that its consumers aren't sophisticated enough to understand the actual numbers and their margins for error. The recent [...]

Where will Clean Power Plan organizers refocus their efforts? “If anything, the CPP is not the cause”​ of changes sweeping the power markets.”​

Thought Piece For all of the credit-taking by the EPA and other federal agencies, I think that Ken Colburn has it just about right. The power markets are inexorably changing over to natural gas, improving/upgrading the power grid, and developing energy efficiencies with the help of their State Utilities Commissioners. In fact, energy efficiencies and emission [...]

“The Climate Intelligence Agency”​ Whatever the reason, no job [Agency] is too irrelevant for global warming to intrude.

Thought Piece Do I repeat myself? Well, then I repeat myself! "Paranoid politics almost never achieves its goal. The obvious prejudices, hyperbole, rhetoric, and shrillness gives it away. As I have said before: Name-calling, smearing and sneering are not arguments." "One gets the feeling that the promised "warfare" by the opposition has just begun and promises [...]

“The irreversible momentum of clean energy”​ by Barack Obama. Subjectivity and immodesty are rarely newsworthy, let alone history.

Thought Piece Dear thoughtful readers, I have chosen the Abraham Lincoln method of writing about matters to which I am close: I waited a couple of days before I published my thoughts. That said, some of you have read a previous editorial comment of mine, "Isn't it horrifying when the major media, universities, environmental media, national [...]

Global Warming Alarmists Claim A Scalp, Drive Skeptical Scientist from University: “more ‘honest’​ place for scientists working in politicized field

Thought Piece Dear thoughtful readers, I have a few thoughts to add to the narrative about the Professor Judith Curry departure from GTU: (1) Dissent is not illegal; (2) persecuting dissenters probably should be; (3) the United States was created by dissenters; (4) skepticism is a building block of  all intellectual inquiry; (5) the politicization of any science will [...]

Thought Piece To enter the dazzling world of the Internet of Things, each of the billions and billions of things need hyper-speed, two-way connectivity and equal speed to download and upload information. What is being called 5 G. The other secret sauce is the same specifications for all platforms-cable, fiber optics and wireless. Sorry, DSL you [...]

Climate change: Fresh doubt over global warming ‘pause’: One-sided “reporting” isn’t a global warming report, at all.

Thought Piece They see black and white and I see red. It is hard not to notice the obvious bias of the BBC writer. How can there be any real debate about "global warming" or its Siamese twin, "climate change." In fact, this "report" may be an example of funding bias. First, I confess to being a [...]
