Ron Clutz: "Climate warms and cools without help from humans. Secondly, warming is good and cooling is bad; bad both for us and for the biosphere. The hypothetical warming from CO2 would actually be a good thing.
And so we should take very seriously what Dr. William Happer said. More CO2 actually benefits the world. It's not a pollutant at all, and we should have the courage to do nothing about CO2 emissions."
Earth has emerged from multiple recurring ice-age cycles that have followed the exact same pattern for a million years—warming roughly 5–6°C every 100,000 years.
These warm interglacials did not once trigger a global environmental crisis. Indeed, civilisation itself arose within the 11,700 years of today's warm Holocene interglacial. Reducing a planetary-scale biosphere to a sudden climate crisis within a few decades ignores the entire geological record.
Earth’s living biosphere is dynamic and resilient. This is demonstrated in real time as plants and farm production increase, supported by marginal rises in CO₂ levels at around 1 to 3 ppm a year. The moderate warmth and available carbon are driving a visible expansion of the green leaf plants and cereal crops—as recorded by NASA satellites.
Atmospheric CO₂ is not a threat to on-going life on Earth. The world warms or cools almost entirely from natural cycles and nature's variability. CO₂ is the building block for life—the essential driver of photosynthesis and primary plant productivity on land and in the oceans. There is no evidence CO₂ variations trigger ice age glaciations or drive interglacial recoveries.
These are by and large a the predictable consequences of the Milankovitch orbital cycles, followed by ice-sheet retreat, falling surface albedo, and subsequent shifts in ocean circulation.
The paleoclimate record shows that CO₂ 'follows' the rising temperatures on multi-millennial scales. The net-zero agenda rests on the claim that CO₂ 'leads' temperatures on decades long time scales. Yet the Antarctic ice-core record (EPICA Dome C, Vostok) is specific: temperatures consistently rise several hundred to a thousand years before CO₂ increases.
This lead–lag relationship has been settled science for over two decades (Caillon, 2003; Pedro, 2012; Parrenin, 2013).
Only after the oceans—especially the Southern Ocean—have warmed for centuries does dissolved CO₂ outgas from the deep, slowly raising atmospheric levels.
“CO₂ is geen duivels gas. Het is simpelweg voedsel voor planten.” Dat zei Willie Soon op de EIKE-conferentie in Halle eind juni. Hij betoogt dat CO₂ geen verontreinigende stof is, fossiele brandstoffen welvaart hebben gebracht en natuurlijke koolstofstromen veel groter zijn dan menselijke uitstoot. De aarde wordt groener, geen “emissie-noodsituatie”.

Durban was a hatefest.
That's why so many pulled out of the UN's last Durban event: 🇺🇸 🇦🇺 🇨🇦 🇮🇱 🇬🇧 🇭🇺 🇳🇱 🇦🇹 🇨🇿 🇩🇪 🇫🇷 🇧🇬 🇮🇹 🇭🇷 🇳🇿 🇨🇾 🇸🇮 🇬🇷 🇸🇰 🇷🇴 🇺🇦 🇺🇾 🇵🇱 🇭🇳 🇦🇱 🇲🇪 🇬🇪 🇲🇩 🇷🇸 🇲🇰 🇪🇪 🇱🇹 🇩🇴 🇨🇴 🇸🇪 🇱🇻 🇩🇰 🇪🇸
Urge your government to do the same before Durban 25:

BREAKING: UN rejects US condemnation of antisemitic Durban Conference ahead of UNGA’s 25th-anniversary commemoration, calls Durban “historic” & “important point” in combating racism.
In fact, 38 nations boycotted the UN's last Durban event: 🇫🇷🇬🇧🇩🇪 🇦🇺 🇨🇦 🇳🇱 🇮🇹 🇬🇷 🇺🇦 🇨🇴 🇸🇩 🇪🇸....
Where exactly is the “climate crisis”?
Not in reported disaster frequency.
Not in weather-related losses as a share of global GDP.
And certainly not in human lives... disaster deaths have collapsed over the past century.
CO₂ increased. The planet warmed. Yet humanity became safer, wealthier, and dramatically more resilient.
These charts don’t prove climate never changes. They expose something far more inconvenient: the data do not support the relentless narrative of escalating global catastrophe.
No accelerating disasters.
No exploding relative costs.
No mounting death toll.
If your “crisis” disappears whenever the complete historical record is shown, you’re not presenting science.
You’re selling fear.
The Trump administration has proposed an amendment to the U.S Fifth National Climate Assessment that acknowledges its emission forecasts (the now infamous RCP8.5) are implausible and must not guide federal policymaking.
This is a welcome restoration of scientific integrity, says executive director Angela Wheeler of the @CO2Coalition.
