Winners' Remorse

Dr. John Robson comments on key items from the latest Climate Discussion Nexus weekly "Wednesday Wakeup" newsletter (https://climatediscussionnexus.com/newsletter/), starting with this weird story out of Illinois where the legislature mandated the extinction of hydrocarbon energy and now everyone's stunned that a major power plant is literally leaving the state, plus yet more meetings that will suddenly save the climate, the Canadian government going in another circle on the Memorandum of Misunderstanding, and the Iran War supposedly causing condom shortages as well as energy and everything else, and wrapping up with another installment in our #DOEDeepDive into last summer's "red team" climate report from the U.S. Department of Energy, going deeper into the studies that wrongly said climate change would harm agriculture, more evidence that hurricanes are declining (so does CO2 get credit?) and from the CO2Science.org archive evidence that Hairy Bracken and Woolly Bracken are hard to tell apart but both like CO2.

Useless Politicians

Dr. John Robson of CDN denounces excessive attention to politicians who shy away from principle instead of to those who work from coherent ideas to bold policies.

Carbon Discredit

Dr. John Robson comments on key items from the latest Climate Discussion Nexus weekly "Wednesday Wakeup" newsletter (https://climatediscussionnexus.com/newsletter/), starting with trouble in the carbon credit "market" as the only customer decides it's not valuable PR, Canada's Liberals stealing opposition MPs and ideas, while wasting money on EV facilities, more meetings on climate, some obscenity on climate, European fatuity on the Straits of Hormuz, moving on to Lucy Biggers on how much worse Net Zero would be, airlines backing away from it, Australia's government going Baghdad Bob on energy shortages but with a "Four Point Plan" for fatuity, strange dreams of reviving the Inflation Reduction Act, and wrapping up with another installment in our #DOEDeepDive into last summer's "red team" climate report from the U.S. Department of Energy, this time on climate change and agriculture, the Little Ice Age making Stradivarius violins sound so good, and from the CO2 archive Gum Arabic loving CO2, by gum.

Dire Straits

Dr. John Robson comments on key items from the latest Climate Discussion Nexus weekly "Wednesday Wakeup" newsletter (https://climatediscussionnexus.com/newsletter/), starting with more apparently surprising news about how disruptions in world trade affect "renewables" as well as oil and gas, more apparently surprising news that the US network of temperature monitoring stations are poorly placed and even more poorly maintained, blaming CO2 for El Niño's predicted impacts and BC salmon alleged being hammered by habitat loss, pollution, stuff and oh also climate change, moving on to there still being no energy transition, more meetings on climate as if none had ever been held, asking why Roger Pielke Jr. still keeps one foot, or toe, in the climate alarmist camp, and Heatmap cheering for China, and wrapping up with another installment in our #DOEDeepDive into last summer's "red team" climate report from the U.S. Department of Energy, this time on Extreme Event Attribution, a man-made water crisis in the US southwest because people forgot droughts are natural there, and from the CO2 archive Avicennia marina being a plant not a marina, and one that loves CO2.

Ehrlich Thought People Were Bugs

Dr. John Robson comments on key items from the latest Climate Discussion Nexus weekly "Wednesday Wakeup" newsletter (https://climatediscussionnexus.com/newsletter/), starting with more reflections of anti-human doomster Paul Erhlich, as cruel as he was wrong, moving on to the latest herd-of-independent-minds doomsaying over the climate being "out of balance" like never before, both terms being undefined, more evidence that at a micro level we know little of climate so the models can't know everything globally, green energy creating horrible waste, bug-food factory failure, and enthusiasts for giving up oil bitter that Trump made Cuba give up oil, moving on to more proof that we need oil to live just in case anyone really doubted it, and the hollow fakery of "carbon markets", and wrapping up with another installment in our #DOEDeepDive into last summer's "red team" climate report from the U.S. Department of Energy, this time on the IPCC's desperate failed lunge to identify "Climate Impact Drivers", and yet another study proving cold is more deadly than heat but this time also that it hits the poor hardest.

There's No Pleasing Some People

Dr. John Robson comments on key items from the latest Climate Discussion Nexus weekly "Wednesday Wakeup" newsletter (https://climatediscussionnexus.com/newsletter/), starting with the irony that climate alarmists who spend decades trying to raise the price of hydrocarbon fuels so people would use less of them are unhappy that the Iran War has raised the price and reduced the availability of... hydrocarbon fuels, and bizarre claims that given that war foreigners are praising the Canadian government for having its act together on energy and waving money at us, and wrapping up with another installment in our #DOEDeepDive into last summer's "red team" climate report from the U.S. Department of Energy, this time on the strange alchemy of attribution, the puzzling case of various estimates of global surface warming trends converging when the underlying data on sea surface temperature, which is 74% of the Earth's surface, are so different, and finally from the CO2Science.org archive, Harding Grass loving CO2 as much as cattle love Harding Grass.

The Energy Independence Snooze Button

Dr. John Robson comments on key items from the latest Climate Discussion Nexus weekly "Wednesday Wakeup" newsletter (https://climatediscussionnexus.com/newsletter/), starting with the strange way governments, including in Canada, supposedly learned a lesson about energy and sovereignty when Russia invaded Ukraine, moving on to the US giving the IEA an ultimatum to drop its climate obsession, the EU not dropping its climate obsession, new claims that a three-year blip has overthrown climate science, and wrapping up with another installment in our #DOEDeepDive into last summer's "red team" climate report from the U.S. Department of Energy, this time on sea levels, Qing-bin Lu's prediction based on his theory that halo-GHGs not the orthodox kind were driving late 20th-century warming that arctic ice will stop melting, which it seems to have so the orthodox models got tweaked to predict a hiatus, and, from the CO2Science.org archive, Buffel Grass loving CO2 although people can't seem to decide whether they love it.

Sun Tan Oil

Dr. John Robson comments on key items from the latest Climate Discussion Nexus weekly "Wednesday Wakeup" newsletter (https://climatediscussionnexus.com/newsletter/), starting with California being obliged to import oil from the Bahamas because their wacky climate policies assumed away the importance of hydrocarbon energy and crushed their ability to produce it... but then they turned out to need it anyway, the bankruptcy of Britain's first (and probably last) electric airline, the Tony Blair Institute mumbling that Britain needs a climate policy reset where they do the same stuff but this time it works, and a long story on how climate change already impacts our lives that actually admits it doesn't, and wrapping up with another installment in our #DOEDeepDive into last summer's "red team" climate report from the U.S. Department of Energy, this time on wildfires, more on Qing-bin Lu's theory that halo-GHGs not the orthodox kind were driving late 20th-century warming, and from the CO2Science.org archive, Barnyard Grass loving CO2 more than people seem to love it.
