    Durkin’s “Climate the movie" is out. Here are some links to the science behind it (at least the stuff that I and my close colleagues worked on). Link to the movie: vimeo.com/924719370 a) The sun has a large effect on climate. There are many studies showing this (all the way

    The vimeo link to "Climate the Movie" I shared two days ago has been censored! Fully removed beyond the mere shadow blocking youtube has. Regardless of one’s views on its content, supporting free speech is crucial; opposing it threatens the foundations of western civilization.

    Debunking the solar climate link? One of the arguments used by alarmists who don’t like the idea that the sun has a large effect on climate is claim that because solar activity decreased from the 90’s while the temperature increased is proof that the sun doesn’t have a large

    It's hard to believe, climategate happened exactly a decade ago with no repercussions to those responsible for the scientific misconduct. See the excellent aftermath review by McIntyre & McKitrick: climateaudit.info/pdf/climategatâ€Ķ

    This is typical. When someone cannot address the science, they start smearing. How are the scientific papers related to oil propaganda? I'd wish they payed me, at least I would have been rich.

    I'm supposed to go tomorrow to the EIKE conference on climate change in Munich... and found out that the conference center was bullied to cancel hosting it. What's happening to free speech in Germany??? notrickszone.com/2019/11/19/radâ€Ķ

    For those on #climatestrike pls provide one scientifically valid line of argumentation proving that most of the 20th century warming is anthropogenic & that climate is very sensitive to radiative forcing changes (i.e. CO2) such that future warming will be large. No 97% rubbish!

    Following the forbes fiasco yesterday with @DoronPLevin's removed interview with me, I wrote a summary of the science behind the article. It is a bit long, but tried to cover as much ground as possible. Have fun. sciencebits.com/forbes-censoreâ€Ķ

    Venice's Mayor Luigi Brugnaro said the “dramatic situation” was brought on by climate change. Well, I guess *global* warming started in *Venice* in the 17th century. Graph from journals.openedition.org/mediterranee/7â€Ķ

    It's ironic that people who think it is legitimate to censor opinions different from their own accuse others of being communist. If you think my papers are wrong, address the science. Ad hominems don't reflect well on those carrying it out. Is that why you hide behind anonymity?

    Because you're not looking right, nor do your "experts". Take the OHC, *differentiate* to get heat flux. Correct for volcanoes, and what do you know, you find a very nice correlation, size as expected. Data sets I used found in the next tweet. The sun HAS a large effect. Q.E.D.

    Peter Ridd awarded 1.2m for being sacked by JCU for speaking his mind. Freedom of speech is extremely important for democracy, but just as much to have honest scientific debates. The "Orwellian" university lost.

    The model predictions that you plot exclude the full forcing that the sun has, but which the IPCC and alike ignore. Here, these two papers that unequivocally prove the large solar effect and quantify it, but they are not even mentioned in the IPCC reports:
