AI-Led Study Says Natural Drivers Dominate Climate Variability

Energy Security & Freedom (substack) writes :

Anyone seriously examining the arguments over climate change knows the big unanswered question is not whether there is such a thing or not. Climate change is real and has been since the Earth was formed. The only real question today is this:

How much of our recent climate change, regardless of how much there is, can be attributed to natural change versus human causes?

It is the only question that matters and has not yet been addressed adequately to date.

A new analysis, though, casts much new light on the question. And, get this. The lead author is an AI program! Titled “A Critical Reassessment of the Anthropogenic CO₂-Global Warming Hypothesis: Empirical Evidence Contradicts IPCC Models and Solar Forcing Assumptions,” it is the work of Grok, a software company owner, a high school student, and a well-known astrophysicist. That last fact alone makes it fascinating, of course, but the astrophysicist is the famous Willie Soon, which makes it worth examining. Read full article >>>

Good to read that the pendulum is swinging back towards common sense. Ten years ago Boggart Blog was exposing the deception on which the CO2 driven climate catastrophe scare is built.



Expert Smeared by Media and Greenpeace for Debunking Global Warming

It was entirely predictable that soon after Dr. Matt Briggs co-authored a major peer-reviewed climate physics paper exposing serious errors in the hugely expensive and allegedly infallible computer models used by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the left would start the usual tactics of smears and lies to discredit briggs' work and the man himself.

The research document's contributors have been smeared by the New York Times, The Guardian, the Washington Post and the Boston Globe because the errors it revealed suggest that there is no climate crisis after all. The planet as a whole is warming but not so rapidly as to suggest what is happening is something other than the normal climate variation cycle.

Dr. Briggs told Breitbart News that he, Lord Monckton, physicist Dr. Willie Soon, and former Delaware Climatologist David Legates developed a simple climate model that exposed the errors in more complex computer models used by the IPCC. The report was released in a joint article titled: “Why Models Run Hot: Results from An Irreducibly Simple Climate Model.

Dr. Briggs, who has a Ph.D. in mathematical statistics from Cornell University and was assistant editor for the Monthly Weather Review, is widely published on matters concerning climate. He explained that for decades "the computer climate models on which the IPCC and others rely, make forecasts where the temperature will be way up there. But, the reality is the temperature has been way down here. So these monitors are running hot!"

The reason the team know that the models are running hot is based on a 'firm scientific principle,' says Briggs. "If a model is making bad predictions, which these climate models are, the theory that underlies them must be wrong. So these models must be wrong." In saying this he is paraphrasing Richard Feynman, one of the most respected physicists ever.

Briggs explained that atmospheric reaction to carbon dioxide, known as climate sensitivity, is probably set too high in these models. "If you take this climate sensitivity model and tone it down, you get a much closer match to reality." He contends that the computer models are overcompensating for the addition of CO2 to the atmosphere.

Although their findings weren’t that controversial scientifically, it was "unwelcome news" to the IPCC and other 'Warmageddonists'and the left wing politiciized science camp reacted so angrily to cititicism it led a lot of people to conclude thay had a lot to hide; "And that’s when the whole thing began to blow-up," Briggs said.

A Breitbart reporter asked Briggs how he reacts to all the “smug” entertainers, celebrities, personalities, and others who assert that global warming is a settled science. Briggs responded by explaining that what is settled, "is the fundamental, unshakable scientific principle, that if you have a theory that makes bad predictions, that theory must be wrong. And we have had lousy predictions from these climate models for years and years and years. Something must be wrong. This is undeniable."

The smearing of Briggs et al is classical radical left wing tactics. To smear and attack is their modus operandi, truth is irrelevant, the end justifies the means the agenda is to suppress all opposition and create a global, totalitarian , Marxist government - and if you think that might not be so bad, do some research on Russia under Josef Stalin or China under Chairman Mao. Life was not good, people did not live in caring, sharing, all-join-hands-and sing-Kumbaya, utopian harmony. The sharing was that when people have nothing they can share it equally with everybody and be no wprse off and the only equality lay in the fact that everybody had an equal chance of being arrested, given a show trial, tortured until guilt is confessed and executed without ever knowing what their crime was.

The Global Warming scare was always about total control for the left, the elimination of all political diversity, with few or no freedoms for the individual. As Marx wrote in The Communist Maifesto, the concept of the individual will become obsolete, only the 'collective' (the State) is important, individualism is the antithesis of collectivist ideology as defined by The Frankfurt School.

What the 'agenda' needed was a common enemy, an existential threat that would unite the people of the world around a common cause.

In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. All these dangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only through changed attitudes and behaviour that they can be overcome. The real enemy then, is humanity itself." - Club of Rome, premier environmental think-tank, consultants to the United Nations

"We need to get some broad based support, to capture the public's imagination... So we have to offer up scary scenarios, make simplified, dramatic statements and make little mention of any doubts... Each of us has to decide what the right balance is between being effective and being honest."
- Prof. Stephen Schneider, Stanford Professor of Climatology, lead author of many IPCC reports

"No matter if the science of global warming is all phony... climate change provides the greatest opportunity to bring about justice and equality in the world."
- Christine Stewart, former Canadian Minister of the Environment

“The data doesn't matter. We're not basing our recommendations on the data. We're basing them on the climate models.”
- Prof. Chris Folland, Hadley Centre for Climate Prediction and Research.

Proof enough? Not for the left wing promoters of the climate change fraud, a million pieces of evidence, scientific and empirical, must have been offered by those who challenge their quasi - religious dogma. They dismiss it all and simply will not listen to anybody who questions their certainties.

It really does not matter how many scientific papers disproving this monstrous global warming fraud scam are written, the left are just not interested in either in science, or the truth.

They will slag us sceptics off at every turn, whether we are right or wrong, because that's what the agenda demands of them. They will continue to publish claptrap backed up by bogus 'science' and manufactured statistics, with added impetus, this year, because the desired result at the Paris conference on climate change depends upon it.

We know, and they know that none of their "evidence" stacks up, and is blatantly fraudulent, but they will continue to tell themselves, and each other, that they're right, and that the rest of the world must kowtow to their demands, in order to "save" itself. And since the era of the Ancient Greeks, Phobos and Diemos (fear and panic) have been the most efficient way to control the population, so the politicians are happy to get on board with anything that offers to prolong their grip on power.

Having worked with computers for over thirty years, I could without much difficulty make a computer model that says anything I require it to, a computer model is nothing more than a set of calculations, if data gathered from real world observations is used they can be useful (although in the case of the climate there are too many unknowns to build a relable picture) use made up data as the climate science lobby have (their habiyt of 'adjusting' data has been exposed), so they proves absolutely nothing.

But as is shown above science is not an effective weapon to fight political agendas, propaganda and dogma.

Anyone who reads comment threads on internet news sites will be aware of the consequences of opposing the left wing agenda. The hate attacks will be relentless; racist, right wing extremist, and denier are among the milder terms of abuse. And people who insist on defending diversity of ideas will be pursued around the web, attacked and undermined anywhere they try to express an opinion.

But this is par for the course. Just check out the history record for those that resist totalitarian control in places where Marxist or Socialist regimes have gained total power. Hundreds of millions have suffered and a hundred million have died.

In Britain, Germany, Sweden, France we have been lucky, our socialist parties have always been a mix of left wing authoritarianism and democratic liberalism. But the left, having infiltrated education, the public services and the justice system are currently in no mood to compromise with anyone. The behaviour when trying to shout down intelligent debate on the climate change fraud illustrates that.

Official Advice - Prepare For Blackouts This Winter

The UK government is putting plans together for days of organised blackouts this winter, in what they call a "reasonable worst-case scenario" for energy shortages, according to reports in manstream media. Naturally they are blaming this on the embargo on importing gas from Russia but in reality Britain has never imported any more than a small amout of its gas from Russia. The real reason politicians and energy company CEOs are panicking is entirely due to their obession with obtaining all our energy from intermittent sources like wind and sunshine ...
