Solar forcing is not the main cause of current global warming, contrary to claim by Alex Newman in the Epoch Times
Claim:
The Sun and not human emissions of carbon dioxide may be the main cause of warmer temperatures in recent decades. There is a systemic bias in UN IPCC's data selection.
Human-induced increases in greenhouse gases are the primary driver of global warming, contrary to claims in CFACT article
Claim:
They tell us that we are the primary forces controlling earth temperatures by the burning of fossil fuels and releasing their carbon dioxide. I hope my readers can recognize the absurdity of their claims. … increasing sunspots are linked to increases in earth temperature
Electroverse article incorrectly claims the Sun is behind climate change
Claim:
the IPCC is wrong − the sun, not CO2, drove modern global warming
There is overwhelming evidence that current climate change is significantly caused by human carbon emissions contrary to claim in Townhall
Claim:
Human-produced carbon might be one of the factors [of climate change], but there’s simply no evidence that it is a significant one.
Earth's orbit cannot explain modern climate change
Claim:
changes in the solar orbit of the earth, along with alterations to the earth’s axial tilt, are both responsible for what climate scientists today have dubbed as “warming”[...]. In no way, shape, or form are humans warming or cooling the planet
Claim that cosmic rays are a crucial player for current climate change is unsupported
Claim:
Based on the increase of solar activity during the twentieth century, it should account for between half to two-thirds of all climate change
The Sun cannot explain recent global warming, contrary to what Heartland Institute report claims
Claim:
Solar forcings are not too small to explain twentieth century warming. In fact, their effect could be equal to or greater than the effect of CO<sub>2</sub> in the atmosphere.
Analysis of "Climate Exaggeration is Backfiring"
“This picking of quotes that are convenient for Robert Bradley Jr.’s narrative while ignoring what most climate scientists say is one of the most used rhetorical tools of this piece. The other is the use of offensive emotional language to reduce the critical thinking of his readers. People should know that Forbes is nowadays just a blogging platform.”
Analysis of "The Climate Snow Job"
“This article is indeed a snow job, as the title implies. The author has twisted the facts and distorted the science wildly. The author is well known for his wildly inaccurate climate “forecasts”.”
Analysis of "2015 Was Not Even Close To Hottest Year On Record"
“This article makes startlingly inaccurate claims about the earth’s surface and satellite temperature records, as well as attempts to ascertain the earth’s temperatures over the past two millennia through proxy measurements. The author would do well to talk to scientists involved in surface and satellite records and to consult the peer-reviewered scientific literature rather than blogs when writing in the future.”
Analysis of "Your Complete Guide to the Climate Debate"
“This article peddles the usual false statements masquerading as opinion that we have been seeing for years, and would not be published by a reputable publisher. Most of the scientific statements in the article are false or misleading.”
Analysis of “How Arctic ice has made fools of all those poor warmists”
“This “take” on Arctic sea-ice changes, and more generally polar ice evolution, is highly inaccurate and totally misleading. The authors goes to great lengths to try to convince readers that polar ice is doing just fine…”
Analysis of “Earth heading for 'mini ice age' within 15 years”
“The whole argument in the article rests on the incorrect myth that the Maunder minimum caused a “mini ice age” and uses that name to draw specious implications and conclusions.”
Analysis* of Pope Francis’ Encyclical Laudato Si
“The evidence presented in support of the anthropogenic footprint of environmental problems in general and climate change in particular was overall accurate and relevant. ”
Analysis of "9 questions on rising seas"
“This article does a very good job at presenting the main aspects of sea level rise and how it will impact coastal regions…”
Analysis of "The Alarming Thing About Climate Alarmism"
“Tries and fails to make a convincing case for why humans need to worry about climate change less than they currently do.”
Analysis of “2014 Breaks Heat Record, Challenging Global Warming Skeptics”
“This article does a good job of putting the 2014 temperature record in context with quotes from experts and good descriptions of relevant issues such as El Nino.”
