Increasing numbers of commentators are starting to call peak Net Zero and this process is being helped by the crumbling of the decades-long suffocating stranglehold exerted on \u2018settled\u2019 climate science by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The latest body-blow to its credibility has come from last year\u2019s joint winner of the Nobel Prize for Physics, Dr John Clauser. He has warned the Nobel Foundation not to model a proposed new body to police \u2018misinformation\u2019 on the IPCC, adding: \u201cIn my opinion the IPCC is one of the worst sources of dangerous misinformation.\u201d It would seem unhelpful that at a time when Clauser voiced his criticism, the UN\u2019s Secretary General headed for a public stage and upgraded global warming to \u201cglobal boiling<\/a>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Of course, by ramping up the fear to \u2018boiling\u2019 point, the unhinged Antonio Guterres has fallen into the \u2018worse than Hitler\u2019 trap. Where can you go after you call someone a Nazi, or tell a world audience that the Earth is bubbling beneath its feet?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Details have recently been made public about the\u00a0short speech<\/a>\u00a0Clauser gave to young scientists in South Korea. He implored them to follow the scientific method based on good observations and experiments. Good observations always overrule purely speculative theory, he told them. Referring to climate science, he noted the current world was \u201cliterally awash, saturated, with pseudoscience, with bad science, with scientific misinformation and disinformation\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Referring often to climate science, he told his audience that if they are doing good science they must beware since it may take them on paths that lead them into \u201cpolitical incorrect\u201d areas. \u201cIf you\u2019re a good scientist, you will follow them\u2026 I can confidently say that there is no real climate crisis and that climate change does not cause extreme events,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Easier said than done of course since most scientists are funded in one form or another by governments. In the area of climate, politicians require scientific backing for their collectivist plans to re-order society around Net Zero. Huge amounts of public money are flowing into untested, unproductive new technologies, few of which would be viable in a free capital market. Green subsidy hunters are making serious fortunes with little risk involved. The climate narrative is absurd, says MIT Emeritus Professor Richard Lindzen, but trillions of dollars says it is not absurd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are a number of fault lines that run through the IPCC science narrative. It maintains that all changes in the climate since 1900 are caused by humans burning fossil fuel. This is plainly odd since it asks us to ignore almost all natural variation, having accepted that natural causes were responsible for climate change in the past. It also suggests that the current period in the Earth\u2019s history is the hottest for 125,000 years, ignoring copious evidence that temperatures were much higher in the Holocene Thermal Maximum about 9,700 \u2013 5,700 years ago. The IPCC would have us believe that higher levels of carbon dioxide cause the temperature to inevitably rise, despite observational evidence throughout the paleo record that contradicts that simple hypothesis. After 50 years of trying, not a single credible paper has yet been published providing conclusive proof for the anthropogenic global\u00a0warming<\/s>\u00a0boiling hypothesis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this year, a group of scientists operating through the\u00a0Clintel Foundation<\/a>\u00a0examined the latest work of the IPCC. The authors were damning about its most recent report, finding it emphasised worst-case scenarios, rewrote climate history and had a huge bias against good news. Its standout revelation was that 42% of the IPCC\u2019s claims were based on climate models fed with the implausible assumption that global temperatures would rise by around 5\u00b0C in less than 80 years. Deep in the main body of its work, even the IPCC admits this is of \u201clow likelihood\u201d. Even worse, Clintel noted, was that about half the extreme climate model forecasts found across the entire body of scientific literature are based on this 5\u00b0C boost. It is a fair bet that almost 100% of the clickbait scare stories that dominate mainstream media are taken from these sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The former IPCC author and economics professor Roger Pielke Jr. thinks that the continuing reliance on these implausible assumptions by the IPCC is \u201cone of the most\u00a0significant failures<\/a>\u00a0of scientific integrity in the 21st Century\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tide could well be turning as the voices of previously cancelled giants of science are heard. In the UK, there is increasing media interest in the retrospective uplifts to temperature datasets enabling previous inconvenient pauses to be removed, and \u2018records\u2019 to be declared at regular intervals. Not before time, the Met Office\u2019s habit of declaring heat highs amidst the jet exhaust at British airports is becoming something of a\u00a0national joke<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of those science giants, atmospheric scientist Richard Lindzen,\u00a0recently told a U.S. government body<\/a>\u00a0that climate science \u201cis awash with manipulated data, which provides no reliable scientific evidence\u201d. In his view, the IPCC only issues \u201cgovernment-dictated findings\u201d, noting that the important, and much quoted, \u201cSummary for Policymakers\u201d must be approved for publication by all governments. He further noted that, \u201cmisrepresentation, exaggeration, cherry-picking or outright lying pretty much covers all the so-called global warming caused by fossil fuel and CO2<\/sub>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr Clauser signed off his inspiring talk to young scientists in South Korea by telling them to observe nature directly so they could determine real truth. \u201cUse the information gained from carefully performed experiments and research to stop the spread of scientific misinformation, disinformation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stop Press:\u00a0<\/strong>The new head of the IPCC, Professor Jim Skea, recognises that constantly pumping out apocalyptic predictions which don\u2019t come true is damaging the credibility of the IPCC. In a series of press interviews following his appointment, he warned doom-mongering was doing more harm than good. \u201cIf you constantly communicate the message that we are all doomed to extinction, then that paralyses people and prevents them from taking the necessary steps to get a grip on climate change,\u201d he told one newspaper. The\u00a0Telegraph<\/em>\u00a0has more<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stop Press 2:<\/strong>\u00a0Janan Ganesh, the\u00a0FT<\/em>\u00a0columnist, thinks the Conservative victory in the Uxbridge by-election is the beginning of the end of the pro-Net Zero consensus: \u201cIt was always paper-thin. In 2019, when Bri\u00adtain com\u00admit\u00adted to net zero green\u00adhouse gas emis\u00adsions by the middle of the cen\u00adtury, infla\u00adtion was 2 per cent. A dec\u00adade had passed since the pre\u00advi\u00adous reces\u00adsion. Had politi\u00adcians been frank about the cost of the green trans\u00adition, voters might have felt pros\u00adper\u00adous enough to pay it. Now? Not a chance.\u201d Not paywalled and worth\u00a0reading in full<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
