A Response to “Carbon Majors and the Scientific Case for Climate Liability”

By Bruce M. Everett, Ph.D. May 8, 2025 Climate activists insist that (1) the narrative of catastrophic warming is rigorously formulated and beyond refutation and (2) oil and gas companies are global villains that should be brought to account for their sins. The recently published Nature article “Carbon Majors and the Scientific Case for Climate…

By W. A. van Wijngaarden and W. Happer January 2, 2025 Abstract We briefly review the dominant role of clouds in Earth’s climate. The earliest observational studies of heat transfer through Earth’s atmosphere, for example, those of John Leslie around 1800, showed that clouds have a large effect on radiative heat transfer from Earth’s surface…

Gases from Asthma Inhalers Cause Negligible Warming

Read Now
Frits Byron Soepyan January 2025 Abstract: Various educational and medical institutions, as well as policymakers, have expressed concerns regarding the use of metered-dose inhalers to prevent or treat shortness of breath associated with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), as these inhalers use hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), which are greenhouse gases, as propellants. In response, “environmentally…

Methane and Climate

Read Now
The paper’s Abstract explains that while the “radiative forcing” of each methane molecule is indeed 30 times larger than that of a carbon dioxide molecule, the increase in global methane is 300 times less than that of carbon dioxide. As a result, methane is only one tenth (30/300) as powerful in forcing as carbon dioxide, which adds about a degree Celsius to global warming as it doubles in the atmosphere. A methane doubling would provide only a tiny fraction of total greenhouse forcing, the paper says....

Ferdinand Engelbeen, Renee Hannon, and David Burton December 2024 Since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution in the late 1700s, the average concentration of Earth’s atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) has increased by about 140 parts per million by volume (ppmv) to the current amount of about 420 ppmv. This is much higher than concentrations of…
