    Ghouls Do Nepal

    John Robson comments on key items from the latest Climate Discussion Nexus weekly "Wednesday Wakeup" newsletter (https://climatediscussionnexus.com/newsletter/), starting with media and activist vultures swooping on tragedy in Nepal to say they don't know what happened but they know it was due to climate change, and claiming such things have become more frequent with no evidence whatsoever, plus more evidence that Canada's international green man of mystery, now Prime Minister, Mark Carney is still a climate zealot with a foggy mind, and MSN inventing mass flight of rich people from vast climate-change-created wastelands, claims that some new discovery upset everything scientists thought about megalodon for 190 years without mentioning that ocean science might be unsettled on climate and media raving about record wildfires in the face of clear contrary data because they have a model, and wrapping up with an installment in our #CanaryInAClimateWorld series on Will Happer on the lamentable politicization of climate science, Tony Heller noting that Greenland is gaining ice, and the impact of more atmospheric CO2 on Japanese larch which, for once, is a larch and is from Japan.

    John Robson comments on key items from the latest Climate Discussion Nexus weekly "Wednesday Wakeup" newsletter (https://climatediscussionnexus.com/newsletter/), starting with what ever happened to Canada's international green man of mystery, now Prime Minister, Mark Carney (plot spoiler: nothing, he's still a climate fanatic as his new "green taxonomy" demonstrates), renaming the Anthropocene the Pyrocene without it causing more fires, alarmists suddenly saying now isn't the time for diesel to get more expensive, AI climate dystopia, the New York Times overlooking the Urban Heat Island yet again, and Britain being wet-dry because of climate change, moving on to Arctic ice still not melting, Roger Pielke Jr.'s new "Dashboard" showing that extreme weather isn't getting worse generally, what we don't know about oceans, and wrapping up with an installment in our #CanaryInAClimateWorld series on Ian Clark changing his mind, a study of cloud cover over the Mediterranean over a thousand years that shows it correlates with temperature unlike CO2, and the impact of more atmospheric CO2 on Japanese honeysuckle.

    World Off Fire

    John Robson comments on key items from the latest Climate Discussion Nexus weekly "Wednesday Wakeup" newsletter (https://climatediscussionnexus.com/newsletter/), starting with more hysteria about wildfires even though as of August 5 every single continent was below the 2012-25 average for fires and North America, Africa and South America were at record lows for that period, the Canadian government being bad at fighting fires then blaming climate, claims that smelly seaweed in Mexico is a new and climate-related problem, and National Geographic not realizing hippopotamus bones in Britain from 120,000 years ago mean it was hotter then, plus an obsession with carbon emissions from ancient Amazonian civilizations, and the alarmists' new obsession with there never having been earthquakes until Henry Ford invented climate, plus climate alarmist realism falling flat, and wrapping up with an installment in our #CanaryInAClimateWorld series on Ian Plimer and the vexed question of natural warmings, a real forest scientist who makes actual predictions about fire based on real data, and the impact of more atmospheric CO2 on Japanese cedar even though it's not cedar and isn't from Japan.

    Real Problems

    John Robson comments on key items from the latest Climate Discussion Nexus weekly "Wednesday Wakeup" newsletter (https://climatediscussionnexus.com/newsletter/), starting with a discussion of real environmental problems that get neglected because of the obsession with climate and carbon, and real environmental achievements that get ignored for the same reason, plus the ongoing delusion that if climate change is a serious problem it must be cheap and easy to fix, news that science found a whole new continent under the sea but already knew everything about oceans and climate and still does, June 2026 being one of the coolest months in the last three years despite all the hysteria, climate Karens in Canada, and alarmists turning on Microsoft instead of wondering what it now knows that it once didn't, moving on to another kooky geoengineering scheme, to ward of solar "geomagnetic storms" from space instead of protecting infrastructure here on Earth, and Adam Smith shooting down the argument that EVs are a strategic industry even if they're not popular, and wrapping up with an installment in our #CanaryInAClimateWorld series on Nobel laureate Dr. John Clauser being too harsh for our taste on climate alarmism but absolutely right about the beauty of science, more data on Canadian Arctic sea ice not melting, and from the CO2Science.org archive evidence that sweet potatoes, which are neither potatoes nor yams but relatives of Morning Glory, also grow bigger and better if there's more CO2.
