A new nature plant study shows the average size of trees in the Amazon has been increasing by 3.2% every decade, directly tied to rising CO2 levels. For years, models and media warned of Amazon collapse, but field data from almost 200 forest plots over 30 years show the opposite. Both large canopy trees and smaller understory trees are growing bigger. In southwest Amazonia alone, between 11 and 17 gigatons of extra biomass are being added each year, carbon that the models didn't account for. CO2 isn't killing the forest, it's feeding it. The Amazon today is stronger, bigger and more resilient than it was a generation ago. The planet overall is greener, more CO2, more growth, more life.

Western Europe’s heatwave lasted 7 days and covered roughly 1.2 million km². The Alaska-Canada-Greenland cold anomaly has lasted 17 times longer and covered ten times the area — roughly 12 million km² across four months. For a full breakdown (and more) see today's Substack: https://t.co/OUbDKufSH2

A new study asserts that modern warming is nothing new. The paper argues that today's modest warming since the Little Ice Age is part of a long rhythm of natural swings, not a one-off CO2 story. The Holocene record shows repeated cool pulses called bond events, separated by strong warm phases. These included the early to mid-Holocene peak, the Roman Warm Period, the Medieval Warm Period, and then a downturn into the Little Ice Age before the rebound of the 19th and 20th centuries. During past warm phases, the Arctic often had little summer sea ice, many northern glaciers shrank or disappeared, and the Sahara turned green under a much stronger monsoon. These shifts tracked solar cycles, orbital geometry, ocean circulation changes, and volcanic jolts - drivers powerful enough to reshape rainfall belts and ice cover. The paper concludes that modern climate models overweight CO2 and underweight these natural forcings.

US rainfall has shown no trend for over half a century now. NOAA data from 1970 to 2025 shows no long-term change. Spikes and dips prove short-lived, not signs of crisis. If CO2 drives extremes, we should see more heavy rain. As geologist John Dodders explains, for every one sea rise the climate models predict 7% more atmospheric moisture. That should mean heavier rainfall events. But NOAA's own long-term stations don't show it. The claim is therefore falsified by the data. The records show natural variability Nothing more.

Svalbard, a remote Arctic archipelago, holds inconvenient secrets about our climate history. A new study reveals it was up to 9C warmer around 10,000 years ago when CO2 was just 260 parts per million. Despite this warmth, glaciers didn't vanish. They survived, supported by increased snowfall. Svalbard then cooled for the next 8,000 years while CO2 kept rising. No tipping points, no runaway melt. Yet today's climate models project the same 8 to 9C of warming by the year 2100 (using the discredited RCP8.5 scenario), and predict widespread glacier loss. That directly contradicts the historical record. Even the study's authors admit the future may follow the past. Warmer, wetter conditions could bring more snowfall, stabilizing or even growing glaciers. The fatal flaw in climate modeling has raised its ugly head once again. It can't replicate history. And when the past contradicts your theory, it's the theory that's broken, not the past.

A new study tested the Doomsday Glacier narrative - not with flaky climate models, but instead with bedrock cores near Thwaites Glacier. Today, the drill sites sit under about 41 meters of ice. But during the Holocene, as little as two meters remained. Then the ice thickened again. The scare story says modern retreat means inevitable collapse. However, the physical record says ice has thinned before and then recovered. There is no "Doomsday" Glacier - just bad science.
