The science of science is to robustly challenge the science, and not to just blindly accept it. Climate and energy news from Germany - by Pierre L. Gosselin

“…we conclude that changes in plant decomposition and [soil respiration] due to global temperatures primarily control global CO2 cycles.” − Nishioka, 2026 CO2 changes have been observed to lag temperature changes (warming) via soil respiration since 1979 (r = 0.74). The consistent uni-directionality is T→CO2. Anthropogenic CO2 accounts for 4% of the carbon cycle and […]
Escalating climate language: 25 years ago, 28°C was “pleasant”…today it is called “extremely dangerous”. The following video link compares two different forecasts for warm summer weather but are allegedly from a couple of decades apart. I can’t be sure of their authenticity, but the language tone differences between back then and today are definitely accurate! […]
In an interview on a Bild podcast, Swiss-based meteorologist Jörg Kachelmann strongly criticized Germany’s approach to dealing with heatwaves and climate issues, telling the German audience, “You’re a really crazy country.” Article here online: nau.ch Kachelmann told Bild the current European heatwave is unprecedented but that Germany and Switzerland got relatively “lucky” because the core […]
The bleaching and heat stress narrative that says rising CO2 is an existential threat to coral reef habitat has not been realized. Since reliable monitoring began 40 years ago, scientists (Ceccarelli et al., 2026) provide graphical evidence there has been no significant overall net change in coral cover throughout the Northern, Central, and Southern Great […]
Scientists (Yilgan and Jónsdóttir, 2026) report annual mean sea ice extent in the Greenland Sea was 8.4 times greater in 2023 (2,403.6 km²) than in 2019 (287.6 km²). In the month of January, the sea ice extent was 6.4 times larger in 2024 (20,308 km²) than in 2017 (312 km²). Hand-in-hand with the recent sea […]
Currently there’s much hysteria across the German media surrounding this summer’s hot weather and drought. Without surprise, it’s allegedly unprecedented. But an old archive film from the German government shows how bad the situation was back in 1949. The Rhine River was nearly dried out! The video speaks of a “waterway without water” and that the […]
Cloud cover changes are a “top-down dynamical driver” of Earth’s climate. A July 2026 Environmental Research Letters paper authored by Bellocchi et al. attributes ~80% of the rise in Earth’s absorbed solar radiation since 2000 to declining high-reflectivity cloud cover, primarily from circulation-driven contraction of storm-cloud zones. The study highlights the climate’s “albedo governance,”…
In new research (Liu et al., 2026), scientists acknowledge clouds “markedly impact near-surface air temperatures” by altering the radiation budget and driving heating rates across the Arctic. For example, a cloudy day in winter may deliver 20-30 W/m² of cloud radiative forcing (CRF), warming the Arctic surface by 6-9°C. However, due to massive uncertainties in […]
A weather site’s amazingly sloppy measuremnt goes viral across Germany… Much of Europe has been enduring a heat wave and below normal precipitation. Not surprisingly, the media are busy using the hot weather to further promote climate alarm and get more clicks however they can. One way to accomplish this is to use sompletely bogus […]
“Heat Deaths” According to the RKI By Frank Bosse There is a publication by the RKI [Robert Koch Institute] on “Heat and Excess Mortality in Germany.” The methodology is also explained in it: calendar weeks with a mean temperature above 20°C are filtered out, and then the excess mortality figures provided by the Federal Statistical […]
The CO2-induced “polar amplification” narrative peddled by climate alarmists has just taken another hit. It has previously been shown increasing CO2 by over 120 ppm (278 ppm to 400 ppm) cools the Antarctic climate (Notholt et al., 2024). These scientists found there has been a slight (-0.01°C) overall net cooling CO2 influence since 1750. Image […]
A recent investigative interview by Apollo News featuring former Hamburg Environmental Senator and energy expert Fritz Vahrenholt has sparked intense debate over the stability of Germany’s power grid and the future of its industrial economy. As Germany aggressively transitions away from traditional baseload power and over to erratic renewable energies like wind and sun, government […]
