  • Better Science - Where Is the Recent Warming?
    Better Science - Where is the Recent Warming? Two Friends of Science members published the following letters in the Readers’ Forum section of the September 2012 issue of “The PEG Magazine”, the official publication of the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta (APEGA). HERE'S SOME BETTER SCIENCE Re: Online Denials Not Well Founded, by J. Edward Mathison, P.Geol., and Let's Get Back to Applying Science, by Joe Green, P.Eng., Readers' Forum, The PEG,April 2012. A return to the appropriate application of science would be most welcome. But how do we define Science? Since the 17th century a scientific method with accepted standards has developed. Researchers propose hypotheses as explanations of observed phenomena and design experimental studies to test them. Fundamental is the principle of full transparency, with data and methodology archived and shared so results can be verified and reproduced independently by other scientists. This has not been the pattern for the climatologists in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, who have shown a total disregard for these procedures by withholding data, refusing to reveal or discuss methodology, and essentially ignoring evidence contrary to their hypothesis. PhiI Jones of the Climate Research Unit of the U.K.'s University of East Anglia has not been forthcoming. Despite numerous freedom of information requests and enquiries, data and its associated methodology have not been fully released for independent due diligence. This is notwithstanding that this is the temperature data set presented as primary evidence of late 20th century warming, and the basis for draconian policy and taxation measures.

  • Radio Canada's
    Friends of Science friendsofscience.org climatechange101.ca Press Release November 26, 2019 Radio Canada’s “Décrypteurs” Climate Fail (CALGARY) Friends of Science Society have issued a letter to Radio Canada condemning recent coverage of the CLINTEL “No Climate Emergency” declaration as poor and biased journalism. On Nov. 23, 2019, fact-checkers at Radio Canada’s “Décrypteurs” claim to have deconstructed the list of scientists who issued the Climate Intelligence - CLINTEL “No Climate Emergency” declaration to the UN. A larger group of CLINTEL signatories and expanded scientific explanation was presented on Nov. 20, 2019 to the European Parliament, as reported by the Global Warming Policy Foundation. Radio Canada’s fact-checking team claim few of the CLINTEL signatories are climate scientists, but this is a term which only came into use about 2005. It is irrelevant in the complex field of climate where physicists, atmospheric scientists, geoscientists, astrophysicists, oceanographers, volcanologists and chemists among others, all have input to and understanding of climate change science. Radio Canada relies on information from the International Fact Checking Network (IFCN). IFCN certified “Climate Feedback” as an accurate source to evaluate such climate news, but it is really a group of self- interested scientists who issued a disrespectful and fact-fail review of the CLINTEL ‘No Climate Emergency” document, as detailed in this Friends of Science rebuttal. While the “Décrypteurs” claim some CLINTEL signatories are not scientists, it is ironic that CBC/Radio Canada regularly report on Al Gore’s climate proclamations and give headline coverage to Greta Thunberg, neither of whom are climate scientists and both of whom are engaged in a global carbon offset promotion scheme.

  • BLACK SWANS by Dr Gerrit J. Van Der Lingen (© 2015)
    BLACK SWANS By Dr Gerrit J. van der Lingen (© 2015) Christiana Figueres is a Costa Rican diplomat. She was appointed Executive Secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) on May 17, 2010. She succeeded Yvo de Boer. The UNFCCC organises annual climate conferences, called COPs (Conferences Of the Parties to the UNFCCC). The first one was held in Berlin in 1995. The last one (COP20), at the time of writing this essay, was in Lima, Peru, 1-12 December 2014. Christiana Figueras chaired that conference. In her opening address she said, among other, the following: “The calendar of science loudly warns us that we are running out of time”, and “Here in Lima we must plant the seeds of a new, global construct of high quality growth, based on unparalleled collaboration building across all previous divides. History, dear friends, will judge us not only for how many tonnes of greenhouse gases we were able to reduce, but also by whether we were able to protect the most vulnerable, to alleviate poverty and to create a future with prosperity for all”. Maurice Newman, Chairman of the Australian Prime Minister’s Business Advisory Council, wrote an article in The Australian newspaper of 8 May, 2015, titled: “The UN is using climate change as a tool, not an issue”. About Christina Figueres he wrote: “Why then, with such little evidence, does the UN insist the world spends hundreds of billions of dollars a year on futile climate change policies? Perhaps Christiana Figueres, executive secretary of the UN’s framework on Climate Change has the answer? In Brussels last February she said, “This is the first time in the history of mankind that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally, within a defined period of time, to change the economic development model that has been reigning for at least 150 years since the Industrial Revolution.” In other words, the real agenda is concentrated political authority.

  • Kyoto Accord
    Kyoto Accord A reproduction of the 2002 debate solicited by APEGGA Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta Published in “The PEGG” journal and on-line Between Matt McCulloch, P.Eng., is with the Calgary office of the Pembina Institute for Appro- priate Development, in a lead technical role in the institute's Eco-Solutions Group. Dr. Matt Bramley is the Pembina Institute's director of climate change. And Dr. Sallie Baliunas is deputy director at Mount Wilson Observatory and an astrophys- icist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. Dr. Tim Patterson is professor of geology (paleoclimatology) in the Department of Earth Sciences at Carleton University. Allan M.R. MacRae, P.Eng., is a Calgary investment banker and environmentalist. Views expressed are not necessarily those of any institution with which they are affiliated. This paper reflects the scientific view of Friends of Science Society whose scientific advisors in 2002 included Dr. Sallie Baliunas and Dr. Tim Patterson. THE KYOTO ACCORD Editor's Note: The PEGG solicited the following exchange on the Kyoto Accord and the science behind it, in an effort to provide two divergent views of the debate. The Point side is in favour of the science behind Kyoto and its implementation; the Counterpoint side dis- putes the science and doesn't agree that the accord, as it currently stands, is an accepta- ble way to address climate change. Each side received an advance copy of the other's argument, allowing them to write rebuttals, which also appear here. ________________________________________ POINT BY MATT McCULLOCH, P.ENG. and MATTHEW BRAMLEY, PhD Atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs) are rising rapidly as a result of human activities, mainly the burning of fossil fuels.

  • Good News for Greta and WEF on Climate from Friends of Science
    Friends of Science friendsofscience.org climatechange101.ca Press Release February 4, 2020 Good News for Greta and WEF on Climate from Friends of Science (Calgary, Alberta) Friends of Science Society in Canada has produced a new video on CLINTEL's climate intelligence letter to the World Economic Forum (WEF) entitled “Good News for Greta.” CLINTEL, the climate intelligence group of more than 800 international scientists and professionals, including Nobel award-winner Ivar Giaever, issued a new plain language climate science report, sent with a letter to Borge Brende, president of the World Economic Forum (WEF), explaining there is no climate emergency, a position supported by Friends of Science. Friends of Science Society has studied climate science and related energy policies since 2002 and the days of Kyoto. Then as now, the science is uncertain and no emergency foreseen, as explained by Dr. Madhav Khandekar. As outlined in a Jan. 2, 2020, Forbes article by Roger Pielke, Jr., the ‘climate catastrophe’ stems from an influential report funded by two ‘green’ billionaires, which misinterprets certain future climate simulations known as RCP 8.5 and RCP 2.6. Neither of these Representative Concentrated Pathways (RCP) are deemed to be accurate reflections of energy use, nor can they be compared as ‘choices’ since RCP 2.6 reflects a world with 3 billion fewer people. Pielke explains how the frightening but faulty “Risky Business” report interpretations and methodology uses the extreme and unrealistic RCP 8.5, and how this became embedded in scholarly works and media reports alike. Even Mark Carney, the Governor of the Bank of England, relied upon the faulty “Risky Business” report for his well-known “Tragedy of the Horizon” speech to Lloyd’s of London in 2015, just prior to the Paris COP21 conference.

  • Comment Received During the Public Review Period on the Inventory Of
    Comments Received during the Public Review Period on the “Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks: 1990-2008.” Reviewer: Bill Allen General Comment Comment: It’s cooling and temperatures are below the levels of the 1930s! CO2 is not causing warming! Collecting data on "greenhouse" emissions is a total waste of tax payer money! CO2 is required for life to exist on this planet and the more we have the better is for all plant life. Comment: We don't need to be wasting taxpayer money on collecting data on green house gases! This is a surface temperature measurement for Yemassee, SC and as you can see, temperatures have declined since the 1930s; 1934 is officially the hottest year on record in the US. You should be aware of the "urban heating effect" which causes surface temperatures in urban areas to be warmer due to the effects of human activities. The temperatures in downtown large cities are as much as 8 degrees warmer than the surrounding rural areas! There is absolutely no reason to regulate CO2! Comment: The attachment shows how the temperature data shows a warming bias due to the urban heat effect. The first graph shows the temperature much closer to what it really has been, with the hottest years in the 30s. [See Appendix A for additional details.] Reviewer: Francis Jeffrey & Janine Gonsenhauser, Circular Sea [TM] Consulatants Annex 5: Assessment of the Sources and Sinks of Greenhouse Gas Emissions Excluded Comment: We wish to point out that in the section, Annex 5 (PDF) (6 pp, 180K) - Assessment of the Sources and Sinks of Greenhouse Gas Emissions Excluded, the treatment of the Ocean in the category of "non-anthropogenic" effects, or as indeterminate, may be very misleading.

  • From: John Mashey
    Another Attack on Consensus - Monckton/Schulte/Ferguson/Morano/Asher vs Oreskes & Consensus ANOTHER ATTACK ON GLOBAL WARMING’S SCIENTIFIC CONSENSUS A Case Study of Personal Harassment and Amplification of Nonsense by the Denialist PR Machine John R. Mashey, updated March 23, 2008, V 7.0, replaces earlier versions ABSTRACT Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW) - the idea that recent temperature rises are substantially caused by humans – is supported by a very strong scientific consensus. But for ideological or economic reasons some people are absolutely sure that it cannot be true, frequently attack it. They are often called contrarians or denialists as a result. They try to manufacture doubt on the consensus among the public, not by doing good science, but by applying PR techniques well-honed in fights over tobacco-disease linkage. These are amplified by widespread use of the Internet, which can quickly propagating nonsense faster than truth. A recent, well-coordinated transatlantic attempt to attack the consensus included: - A not-very-good anti-consensus paper written in the UK by an NHS King’s College endocrinologist, Mr Klaus-Martin Schulte, not obviously qualified for this task, - of which much was posted by Viscount Christopher Monckton at a Washington, DC denialist website of Robert Ferguson, and publicized by Marc Morano of Senator James Inhofe’s staff. - The non-story then propagated rapidly and pervasively through the blogosphere. - This expanded further into personal harassment of a US researcher, Dr. Naomi Oreskes.

  • The Global Warming Scam
    THE GLOBAL WARMING SCAM BY VINCENT GRAY APRIL 2008 (Revised October 2008) 2 THE GLOBAL WARMING SCAM by Vincent Gray Climate Consultant 75 Silverstream Road, Crofton Downs, Wellington 6035, New Zealand Email [email protected] (Revised October 2008) ABSTRACT The Global Warming Scam has been perpetrated in order to support the Environmentalist belief that the earth is being harmed by the emission of greenhouse gases from the combustion of fossil fuels. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was set up to provide evidence for this belief. They have published four major Reports which are widely considered to have proved it to be true. This paper examines the evidence in detail and shows that none of the evidence presented confirms a relationship between emissions of greenhouse gases and any harmful effect on the climate. It is the result of 18 years of scrutiny and comment on IPCC Reports and of a study of the scientific literature associated with it. In order to establish a relationship between human emissions of greenhouse gases and any influence on the climate, it is necessary to solve three problems - To determine the average temperature of the earth and show that it is increasing - To measure the concentrations of greenhouse gases everywhere in the atmosphere - To reliably predict changes in future climate None of these problems has been solved. It is impossible to measure the average surface temperature of the earth, yet the IPCC scientists try to claim that it is possible to measure “anomalies” of this unknown quantity. An assessment of all the temperature data available, largely ignored by the IPCC, shows no evidence for overall warming, but the existence of cyclic behaviour.

  • Infiltration
    Denialist s Infiltration The effect of condoning psychologically intimidating language in a climate science peer-reviewed journal A Case Study By Michelle Stirling ©2015 This paper was contributed to Friends of Science Society. 0 Infiltration: The effect of officially condoning psychologically intimidating language in a climate science peer-reviewed journal A case study By Michelle Stirling Abstract Vested interests and professional positioning have led a long-term attack on dissenting views on climate change. Various psychological intimidation tactics have been employed (name-calling, bullying) to denigrate and isolate researchers whose views and research dispute the findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reports. In most areas of science, new perspectives are welcomed and discussed in a collegial manner. The author examines a case study of a recent peer-reviewed paper in climate science, “Seepage: Climate change denial and its effect on the scientific community” Lewandowsky, Oreskes et al (2015), in which disparaging words have infiltrated peer-reviewed works thus becoming officially condoned as an acceptable part of the scientific language. The author evaluates the claims of seepage against the norms of conduct of the National Academies of Science, the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the American Psychological Association to evaluate whether or not this infiltration constitutes a form of Type Two Scientific Misconduct (Cabbolet 2013).1 As reported by Cabbolet, this form of scientific misconduct operates on two levels, that of the researchers and that of the peer-reviewers, and it creates a powerful, inappropriate precedent that endorses name-calling. If so, this infiltration of the terms ‘climate change denial’ and ‘contrarian’ would set a peer-review precedent that would create a psychological and socio-economic threat to dissenting researchers in a field intended to be open to inquiry.
