The Fight for the Climate Narrative

https://tajschoolofhealth.com/treatments/ So it’s not surprising that lots of people got peeved with the way the BEST story played out in the media. People who feel strongly about climate issues are invariably disappointed with climate media coverage. Hence the perpetual effort to shape the climate narrative. It was perceived by some that Muller overplayed the BEST results…Continue Reading…

The Climate Standoff

https://islamanswers.co.uk/zakat-calculation/ Josh, the favorite cartoonist of climate skeptics, gives his take on Judith Curry’s public spat with Richard Muller. ******************************************************** That is certainly the perception that the Greek choruses at WUWT and elsewhere are doing their best to reinforce.

A Climate Soap Opera

Is Judith Curry throwing Richard Muller under the bus in this newspaper article, as Anthony Watts chortles here? Or has Curry been played by the notorious David Rose, the author of the Mail piece? Either way, Watts, ever the dramatist, channels his inner Godfather with this faux exasperation: I try to get away to work on…Continue Reading…

The Gap Between Climate & Energy Reality

Order Tramadol Online I imagine that some folks in the climate policy and politics arena have been growling at this essay in Nature by Jane C. S. Long. Why would that be?

Speak the truth in love to evangelicals you know. That will require looking for openness to conversation with evangelicals wherever it can be found. Willis, in classic…Continue Reading…

A Better World is the Story

https://www.sienatartufi.com/gallery/ I had just finished up a post when I came across this 2009 cartoon from USA Today at Andy Revkin’s tumblr site.

Climate Dead Enders

https://newzpad.com/apple-its-time-to-fold/ Elisabeth Kübler-Ross famously coined the five stages of grief: 1) Denial, 2) Anger, 3) Bargaining, 4) Depression, 5) Acceptance Anthony Watts appears to be stuck at stage 2. Oh sure, he’s still very much in denial over this, but make no mistake, he’s also fuming and furiously spinning. It is highly doubtful that any amount of peer review–when…Continue Reading…

When Global Warming Isn't Scandalous

Many climate skeptics perturbed about the BEST results are complaining that the media has gleefully hyped the story. There is certainly evidence of widespread coverage in newspapers and the blogosphere. But the story has been virtually ignored by cable TV and mainstream broadcast outlets. Last night, Jon Stewart had some fun comparing that dearth with…Continue Reading…

Debating How to Debate Severe Weather

https://flamengi.cat/contacte/ The Planet 3.0 post I was praising the other day has generated an interesting thread, especially this exchange, which starts with a great question from one commenter: Can I ask, particularly of those who are professionally immersed in this, does the difficulty in talking about extreme events stem from a genuine lack of knowledge and…Continue Reading…

Why Culture Matters

https://www.amainstitute.com/upcoming-training-courses/ I’m very much intrigued by a paper published this week (by Simon Donner) in the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society. It touches on themes that are of longstanding interest to me. I have a short riff on Simon’s paper at the Yale Forum on Climate Change & the Media.
