Vermont Prone to Flooding: Then and Now

By James Steele This week, a USA Today headline screamed: “Dramatic flooding was rare in Vermont’s capital. Expect it more amid climate change.” Similar hyperbolic claims appeared throughout the click-bait media-verse of the New York Times, Washington Post, CNN and others. Preferring to weaponize weather, the media rarely provide scientific historical context. Perspective is just…

Flooding Our Minds with a River of Climate Fear Mongering

UCLA’s Daniel Swain and NPR’s David Romero Collude to Flood Our Minds with a River of Climate Fear Mongering! By Jim Steele There have been many news articles about the human suffering caused by the floods that inundated the town of Pajaro in Monterrey County, California on March 11, 2023. But NPR’s article This Winter’s…

The Denigration Of The Department Of Defense By Climate Crisis Politics

The video explains why the recent Department of Defense’s Climate Risk Analysis does nothing to improve the alerts and preparation for wildfires and extreme weather that has been provided by the military in the 1960s. Instead of ordering the DOD to engage in valuable red team blue team exercises regards climate change impacts on wildfires,…

How Antarctica Caused Global Cooling or Why Earth Remains in Ice Age Mode for Next 200 Million Years

Due to the formation of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, enabled by plate tectonics, Antarctica became thermally isolated from the rest of the earth initiating 1) a permanent ice cap, 2) extensive sea ice that extruded cold brine that filled the ocean's bottom water, and 3) Intensified upwelling that increased productivity that drew down atmospheric CO2 to current levels. As a result of increasing cold Antarctic Bottom Water, oceans ventilated its its displaced ancient bottom water heat. As a result of a 50 million year cooling trend, the earth is now locked into a fluctuating balance between cold ice ages and warm interglacials Jim Steele is Director emeritus of San Francisco State University’s Sierra Nevada Field Campus, authored Landscapes and Cycles: An Environmentalist’s Journey to Climate Skepticism, and proud member of the CO2 Coalition....

The Emperor Penguin Extinction Scam & Sea Ice Dynamics

Despite climate model predictions that Emperor Penguins face imminent extinction due to rising CO2, observations and scientific evidence reveal Emperors are thriving and increasing, as sea ice and Antarctic temperatures are behaving the opposite of model predictions Jim Steele is Director emeritus of San Francisco State University’s Sierra Nevada Field Campus, authored Landscapes and Cycles: An Environmentalist’s Journey to Climate Skepticism, and proud member of CO2 Coalition...

How CO2 Saves the Earth: Greenhouse Gas have Vital Warming & Cooling Effects

While CO2 warming effects have raised earth's temperature to present levels, CO2's absorbed wavelengths are nearly saturated. More CO2 will have reduced warming effects going forward. On the other hand, more CO2 increases collisions with O2 and N2 allowing those air molecules to release heat absorbed from conduction with the ground to be radiated back to space Those cooling effects offset warming, reduce dangerous inversion layer heating, and maintain a balanced climate Jim Steele is Director emeritus of San Francisco State University’s Sierra Nevada Field Campus, authored Landscapes and Cycles: An Environmentalist’s Journey to Climate Skepticism, and proud member of CO2 Coalition...

Sea Level and Thriving Komodo Dragons

In contrast to catastrophic speculation from climate models, and media hype, the scientific evidence reveals rising CO2 has NOT caused a dangerous rise in sea level and has NOT threatened Komodo Dragons with extinction Jim Steele is Director emeritus of San Francisco State University’s Sierra Nevada Field Campus, authored Landscapes and Cycles: An Environmentalist’s Journey to Climate Skepticism, and proud member of the CO2 Coalition....

Warming and Drying part 2 Natural Cycles, Climate see-saws and failed models

Natural cycles like the Madden Julian Oscillation and the El Nino Southern Oscillation cause regions of rising moist air and precipitation varying with regions of sinking cloudless dry air that allow intensified solar heating and modern and historical regional heatwaves and droughts.Climate hypothesis suggesting global warming will cause wet regions to get wetter and dry regions to get drier is not supported by observations Jim Steele is Director emeritus of San Francisco State University’s Sierra Nevada Field Campus, authored Landscapes and Cycles: An Environmentalist’s Journey to Climate Skepticism, and proud member of the CO2 Coalition....
