ICYMI..

As I wrote. Starmer knows he’s running out of road.

Surly not..

Despite the RECORD SMASHING heat wave over the southwest. GLOBAL TEMPERATURES ( which are a poor metric for climate anyway) are almost .3C lower than last year at this time. Wicked cold in Canada offsetting US warmth

The signal for a robust El Niño for the peak of Atlantic #hurricane season (Aug-Oct) continues to grow. El Niño typically reduces Atlantic hurricane activity via increases in vertical wind shear. We'll have lots more to say with CSU's initial 2026 hurricane forecast on 9 April

Water vapour accounts for 95% of greenhouse gases. CO₂ around 0.04% of the atmosphere. Volcanoes, oceans, and natural cycles dominate earth’s climate system. Yet we’re told human CO₂ is the driver of climate change. Questioning that isn’t denial, it’s basic science.

No comment..

Britain cannot deliver on its ambitious Net Zero push because the world does not have enough minerals to do it, a leading scientist will warn. @SimonMichaux, a world-leading mineral adviser, said Net Zero targets must be scrapped and replaced with an entirely new plan in order for the UK and other industrial countries to "maintain society to current standards". “This is an emperor-has-no-clothes moment – not just for the UK, but for the whole world." #CostOfNetZero

Research commissioned by the Government and published on its website last week has proposed to use smart meters to deter the "immoral" use of central heating. dailysceptic.org/2026/03/19/exp…

The late Paul Ehrlich was always catastrophically wrong. He predicted famine and death from population growth, fuelling sterilisation campaigns and boosting environmentalist misanthropy. What a wretched legacy, says Simon Evans buff.ly/kW95f3R

𝗔 𝗥𝗲-𝗟𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗮𝘁 ‘𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗲𝘁’ (𝗦𝗶𝗺𝗼𝗻, 𝗘𝗵𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗵, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗮𝘂𝗹 𝗦𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗻) Paul Ehrlich is still predicting humanity might resort to cannibalism amid ecological doom, yet historian Paul Sabin bizarrely casts Ehrlich's nemesis, Julian Simon, as the villain for "fueling uncivil discourse." Simon won their famous bet on resource prices by proving human ingenuity trumps scarcity fears. But Sabin's book whitewashes Ehrlich's track record of failed alarms and harmful policies. Why flip the script like this? It's a masterclass in biased history. Read the full article: wattsupwiththat.com/2026/03/18/a-r…

While everyone fixates on the heatwave in the western U.S., Alaska, Canada, and the eastern U.S. are very cold relative to average. People seem to forget that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Fairbanks, Alaska, for instance, bottomed out at -40°F yesterday morning. That marked the 7th occurrence this month—a new record (they date back to 1904). With 31 such readings this winter, that's the 4th most on record. I am not downplaying the heatwave out west; it's very impressive and record-shattering in many cases. But events this extreme tell us nothing about long-term climate. Even without global warming, this heatwave would still be occurring right now, and it would still be record-shattering because temperatures would only be a degree or two cooler at most. We are seeing daily and monthly records for stations being broken by five or ten degrees plus. Drs. Cliff Mass and John Christy discussed this during the Pacific Northwest heatwave of 2021. 🔗journals.ametsoc.org/view/journals/…

Labour’s steel strategy is a betrayal of British Steel It will destroy many thousands of skilled jobs in Scunthorpe and beyond Only Reform will renew the blast furnaces & grow British Steel to ensure we retain strong virgin steel making capability

“We Need A Reality Check On ENERGY!” | Starmer Announces £53m Help For Heating Oil Bills. Keir Starmer announces a £53m support package to help vulnerable households struggling with rising heating oil costs. About 1.5 million UK homes rely on heating oil, which is not capped by Ofgem. Prices surge after the Iran conflict disrupts global oil supplies via the Strait of Hormuz, leaving many rural families facing sharply higher energy bills.

As ever, the great @mattwridley nails it. The late Paul Ehrlich was a brutal, wannabe totalitarian who got almost everything disastrously wrong. That he was so widely feted suggests that humans really want his millenarian, dystopian fantasies to come true.thefp.com/p/paul-ehrlich…

A tale of two charts.. I noticed that a pre-industrial 50 year base from 1850-1900 had recently been used, to promote the climate catastrophe 1.5C. A check with NASA revealed the earliest 30 year base was only available from 1881-1910. Further.. there wasn’t many world weather stations to record the 20 year period to measure between 1911-1930, let alone the pre-industrial era.. go figure
