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

Global temperature anomalies on both land and sea are dropping like a stone. Net Zero-obsessed mainstream media, science and politics do not do cooling. Confirmation bias that holds humans responsible for hockey-stick style global warming with all its risible \u2018settled\u2019 notions has gravely damaged genuine climate science. But the world is cooling rapidly and the silence from the mainstream is both laughable and disgraceful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exhibit 1: The accurate UAH satellite record<\/a> shows the plunge clearly with the difference or anomaly from the 1991-2020 average falling during 2025 to end the year at just 0.3\u00b0C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Needless to say, mainstream media ignore satellite temperature data. In January 2022 at the height of the Greta climate hysteria, Google AdSense banned a page promoting the monthly update on the grounds of publishing \u201cunreliable and harmful claims<\/a>\u201d. In the UK, the stone-dropping global inconvenience was passed over recently in favour of highlighting the latest hooey from the Met Office claiming another local \u2018hottest year evah\u2019 based on its junk, unnaturally heat-ravaged weather stations. Rather than advance a balanced global view (or even mention it), the Met Office activists proclaimed that its six hundredth of a degree centigrade \u2018record\u2019 was made 260 times more likely<\/a> due to humans fiddling with the weather. Such imaginative precision from such junk data is a wonder to behold. Science, it is not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The UAH scientists, Dr Roy Spencer and Professor John Christy, also produced results showing how the monthly temperature anomalies have fallen over the last two years. The table below shows both a global figure and measurements broken down in a number of regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

To the left, the red global anomaly in April 2024 was a two-year high, as was the figure next to it for the northern hemisphere. The other columns continuing from the left are the southern hemisphere, tropics, mainland US, the Arctic and Australia. Across all regions, a downward trend can be clearly seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exhibit 2: Along the equatorial Pacific Ocean, sea surface temperatures (SSTs) have been falling for months. In its recent report<\/a> on the formation of El Ni\u00f1o <\/em>(warming) and La Ni\u00f1a<\/em> (cooling) oscillations, the US weather service NOAA provides the latest three-month running anomalies. Since last September, NOA notes \u201cbelow average SSTs persist across most of the equatorial Pacific\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Note the warming oceans around 2015-16 caused by a particularly strong El Ni\u00f1o<\/em>. The recent El Ni\u00f1o<\/em> also caused warmer oceans, or \u2018boiling\u2019 to accurately report the sentiments loudly bloviated by the Guterres\/Gore\/Kerry gang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the latest graph showing SSTs from 60\u00b0S to 60\u00b0N.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Again, it seems temperatures are coming off the boil, with 2026 starting cooler than 2025, which was cooler than 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The last few years have witnessed extraordinary climatic events combined with astonishing levels of scientific disinterest in the causes of them. The \u2018agreed\u2019 answer of course was always to hand \u2013 it was humans wot did it, we have the computer models to prove it. And if you don\u2019t agree with us, then don\u2019t slam the door behind you. Writing recently on Judith Curry\u2019s blog<\/a>, Javier Vinos wrote that what he termed the 2023 event revealed the \u201cgreatest failure of climate science\u201d. Vinos is a leading proponent of the suggestion that the massive underwater Hunga Tonga volcano eruption in 2022, which increased water vapour in the upper atmosphere by up to 13%, was the prime cause of all the weather anomalies. Water vapour is a powerful warming gas of relatively short duration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The scale of the massive increase in stratospheric water vapour can be seen in the latest measuring chart from NASA shown below. There is still a lot of extra water compared to the years before 2022, but it is gradually decreasing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Activists jumped on all the unusual weather events to promote a politically acceptable, pre-defined narrative. But the large blips since 2023 cannot be explained by anthropogenic causes since such changes if they occur are small, regular and only noticeable over a long period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reason climate science in general has failed to rise to the discovery challenge over the last few years, observes Vinos, is due to strong confirmation bias. \u201cThe first step to learning from the 2023 event is accepting its exceptional nature, which many fail to do,\u201d he argues. Rather than trying to determine the causes of the event, scientists have attempted to fit it into the dominant narrative using models, he charged. Vinos\u2019s contribution makes interesting reading and offers a convincing argument to lay much of the blame for the recent dramatic but temporary climate changes on an event unique in the recorded record. Unlike Hunga Tonga, most onshore volcanic eruptions emit large quantities of particles into the atmosphere which can lead to temporary but noticeably global cooling. Meanwhile, Vinos states that \u201cclimate science has failed the test of an externally forced natural climate event\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The great tragedy of the settled climate science era, now facing increased scrutiny, is the draining of public confidence in once revered scientific institutions. Covid was hardly a high point in medical science, while climate fear mongering is in danger of becoming a social joke. \u2018Boiling\u2019 oceans and constant risible records are mixed with obvious pseudoscience such as human \u2018attribution\u2019 claims. The blast from Hunga Tonga may well help in blowing away much of this fake news for good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
