Frits Byron Soepyan, William Happer, Gregory Wrightstone December 2024 Abstract: There is a growing concern in the medical industry regarding the emission of anesthetic gases, such as sevoflurane, nitrous oxide, isoflurane and desflurane, into the atmosphere, because these anesthetic gases are greenhouse gases. To determine if these concerns are sensible, we compiled the information regarding… Continue Reading

Effects of Net Zero by 2050 – Summary Physics Proves that Policies by the United States and Other Countries to Reduce CO2 Emissions to Net Zero by the Year 2050 and Eliminate Fossil Fuels Will Have A Trivial Effect on Temperature and Weather, But Disastrous Effects for the Average Citizen and Countries Worldwide We are… Continue Reading
R. Lindzen, W. Happer, and W. A. van Wijngaarden June 2024 Many people are surprised by how little warming would be averted from adoption of net zero policies. For example, if the United States achieved net zero emissions of carbon dioxide by the year 2050, only a few hundredths of a degree Celsius of warming… Continue Reading

Pennsylvania’s Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative Relies on Faulty Data – Why RGGI is a “solution in search of a problem”
The Governor and other officials have relied heavily on the state’s Climate Action Plans and specifically on the 2018 Pennsylvania Climate Action Plan3 in order to support their claims of current and future devastating impacts of continued CO2-driven warming. Assertions in the Climate Action Plan are refuted by the analysis of Gregory Wrightstone, Executive Director of the CO2 Coalition and an expert reviewer for the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s 6th Assessment Report (IPCC – AR6).... Continue Reading

Equal Warming, 1900 to 1950 versus 1950 to 2018: Why the UN Knows the First Half was Natural (2020 April)
Mathematics and Statistics Professor Caleb Stewart Rossiter Helps You “Do the Math” of Logarithms CO2 has a logarithmic effect on temperature. Using log math, CO2 levels from 1950 to 2018 have 5.23 times the impact of levels from 1900 to 1950. That means there was no measurable warming from industrial CO2 emissions in the earlier… Continue Reading
