The purpose of this website is to consolidate the many websites, videos and news articles pertaining to scientists` concerns over the questionable way that the IPCC and other government funded agencies portray climate change. Their hypothesis states:
For years, climate alarmists have tried to silence the scientific debate on climate change. Why is this important, philosopher John Stuart Mill explains.
Mill outlines the benefits of "searching for and discovering the truth" as a way to further knowledge. He argued that even if an opinion is false, the truth can be better understood by refuting the error. And as most opinions are neither completely true nor completely false, he points out that allowing free expression allows the airing of competing views as a way to preserve partial truth in various opinions.[50] Worried about minority views being suppressed, he argued in support of freedom of speech on political grounds, stating that it is a critical component for a representative government to have to empower debate over public policy.[50] He also eloquently argued that freedom of expression allows for personal growth and self-realization. He said that freedom of speech was a vital way to develop talents and realise a person's potential and creativity. He repeatedly said that eccentricity was preferable to uniformity and stagnation.
- John Stuart Mill
This website will show that there are currently four independant factors contributing to climate change (global warming).
Research has shown that life on earth actually flourishes with warmer temperatures.
CO2 Is Not A Pollutant, Rather It Is A Vital Plant Nutrient.
Climate Alarmism Is Harmful To People`s Wellbeing, The Economy, Energy Stability And Causes Divisiveness In Society.
Consensus on AGW is vague and any scientists that publicly disagree with AGW get shunned.
Climate change alarmist/activist: A person who believes humans are causing climate change through the manufacturing of greenhouse gases such as CO2.
Climate change skeptic: A person who believes that climate change DOES exist, that humans are increasing greenhouse gases and that greenhouse gases can cause increases in
global temperature but question whether human CO2 contribution is enough to affect the climate in a negative way. Rather, a skeptic believes that
current climate change is the result of several factors.
Climate change denier: A term made up by climate change alarmists to refer to climate change skeptics to make it appear as though the
skeptics are denying climate change. This ironically applies more to the alarmists as they seem to deny that climate change could have any natural factors affecting it.
IPCC: Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change - The IPCC produces reports that support the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), which is the main international treaty on climate change.
The treaty from 1992 is "The UNFCCC objective is to 'stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system'".
In other words, the IPCC`s objective is to only focus on greenhouse gases and not any other sources of climate change.
AGW: Anthropogenic Global Warming theory - the belief that humans are causing global warming through the production of greenhouse gases.
In order for any gas to be a greenhouse gas it must be able to absorb infrared light being reflected off the surface of the earth and convert that to heat energy. In Earth`s atmosphere, the predominate GH gases are Water Vapor, CO2, Methane and other trace gases. See chart below.

Some quotes:
CO2 mostly only abosrbs infrared light at two wavelengths: 4.3 and 14.9. According to 2013 article from the Imperial College London that studied Infrared spectral absorption by water vapour and carbon dioxide, they stated, "The CO2 4.3um absorption coefficients are the strongest in the infrared region but are located where the radiative intensity is much weaker. Thus, although it plays a role in the upper atmosphere, this band is unimportant to the greenhouse effect on Earth.", thereby eliminating the 4.3 wavelength absorption and leaving only the 14.9 wavelength (Page 5, 2nd last paragraph).
A Harvard University study, section 7.3.3 Interpretation of the terrestrial radiation spectrum they state, "Contrast this situation to a greenhouse gas absorbing solely at 15 mm, in the CO2 absorption band ( Figure 7-8 ). At that wavelength the atmospheric column is already opaque ( Figure 7-13 ), and injecting an additional atmospheric absorber has no significant greenhouse effect.". Looking at the chart above, one can see that Water Vapor already absorbs most of the 14.9 wavelength leaving little more for CO2 to absorb.
Other Planets And CO2
Planet | Temp. Day | Temp. Night | CO2 % | Atmosphere Pressure | PPM |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Mercury | 427 C | -173 C | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Earth | 25 C | 20 C | 0.0407 | 1 | 410 |
Mars | 20 C | -63 C | 95 | 0.006 | 953,000 |
Jupiter | 725 C -160 24,000 | 725 C -160 24,000 | 0 | varies with depth | 0 |
On Mars, the night time temperature drops significantly more than on Earth. This is due to the lack of water vapour on Mars. While CO2 is a greenhouse gas and Mars has many times more than Earth, it is very week in Infrared light absoption compared to water vapour. On Earth, water vapour is the main gas controlling temperature.
Venus also has 95% CO2 in its atmoshere but is very hot. It turns out that due to Venus`s very high atmospheric density, CO2 gas behaves more like a fluid there, as noted in the document The deep atmosphere of Venus and the possible role of density-driven separation of CO2 and N2. This behaviour contributes to the high temperatures.
Climate change is real. Whether you are an alarmist or a skeptic there is overwelming scientific evidence showing that earth`s climate changes over time.
According to the Utah Geological Survey, "At least five major ice ages have
occurred throughout Earth`s history: the earliest was over 2 billion years ago, and the most recent one began approximately 3 million
years ago and continues today..." Each ice age was followed by a period of global warming.
"Since 2,500 B.C., there have been at least 78 major climate changes worldwide, including two major changes in just the past 40 years."
"By the end of this 21st Century, a cool down may occur that could ultimately lead to expanding glaciers worldwide, even in the mid-latitudes. Based on long-term climatic data, these major ice ages have recurred about every 11,500 years. The last extensive ice age was approximately 11,500 years ago, so we may be due again sometime soon. But, only time will tell."
Global Temperature Trends From 2500 B.C. To 2040 A.D.
By Climatologist Cliff Harris and Meteorologist Randy Mann
Based on glacier ice core samples there have been at least 5 ice ages (global cooling) followed by a period of global warming each time.
Neither global cooling nor global warming is a new thing that is caused by humans.
Most people are aware that during the Medieval Warm Period Vikings had settled on the southern shores of Greenland as the temperatures
back then were about as warm as they are today and could sustain some farming until the Little Ice Age. However, there was a time even before this that Greenland was even warmer.
According to a Scientific American report from 2007 about 400,000+ years ago Greenland (in the Dye 3 area) had forests, insects and spiders.
"And based on the tree species found, Greenland must have been warmer than 50 degrees Fahrenheit (10 degrees Celsius) in summer and never colder than one degree F (-17 degrees C) in winter, much warmer than present conditions." This means that Greenland has gone
through previous periods of either local or global warming and what it is experiencing today is nothing new and should not be automatically assumed to be a new man-made event.
Greenland Ice Core Analysis Shows Drastic Climate Change Near End Of Last Ice Age The ice core showed the Northern Hemisphere briefly emerged from the last ice age some 14,700 years ago with a 22-degree-Fahrenheit (12 Celsius) spike in just 50 years, then plunged back into icy conditions before abruptly warming again about 11,700 years ago.
Greenland Ice Core Video
As of 2015/2016 California is experiencing a large drought. Many climate alarmists would suggest this is evidence of man-made climate change. According to a ZME Science article "Between 6,000 and 1,000 B.C.E., during the middle of a period called the Holocene, core samples suggest that California went through a dry period that lasted 5,000 years...Sediment records show the Pacific ocean was in a La Nina-like state which drastically reduced precipitations and made California warm and dry.
A similar, albeit much briefer, period was seen between 950 and 1250 C.E, which paleoclimatologists commonly refer to as the medieval climate anomaly." In other words, California's climate changed in the past without AGW so a change today does not automatically mean AGW.
According to a recent Columbia University article about core samples taken nearly 1,000 feet below the Dead Sea there were two major draughts 120,000 years ago and again 10,000 years ago there
were greater than any modern day draught. Again, severe draughts existed before AGW.
Some scientists also believe that Mars is undergoing climate change. "All around the ice cap, there is evidence for a climate change from ice age to interglacial period...". On Mars, where there are no humans, the ice caps have also been shrinking (last paragraph). Ice caps melting due to natural climate change is not unique to Earth as seen also on Mars.
The greenhouse effect ratio between SF6 and CO2 is 24,900:1. In section 7.4.2 Application, final paragraph, they state, "...we see that over a 100-year time horizon, reducing SF6 emissions by 1 kg is as effective from a greenhouse perspective as reducing CO2 emissions by 24,900 kg. Such considerations are important in designing control strategies to meet regulatory goals!".
SourceSF6 is a colorless, odorless, non-toxic, non-flammable compound with high chemical stability, obtained through chemical reactions between sulfur, and fluorinated gas produced by the electrolysis of anhydrous hydrofluoric acid (HF). SF6 absorbs at wavelengths 10.3 and 10.7, right where there is no absorption from either Water Vapor or CO2.
SF6 is another significant source of fluorinated gas emissions. This gas is mainly used by the electric power industry as an insulator and arc interrupter. The other important source of SF6 emissions is from its use as a cover gas in magnesium production. Total SF6 emissions equal 7160 tonnes annually.1
EPA: Overview of Greenhouse Gases Provides a percent distribution and Global Warming Potential value.
SF6 is used extensively in equipment for the transmission and distribution of electricity. Emissions occur through leakage and maintenance losses. SF6 is also used as a cover gas to protect molten magnesium from oxidation. Emissions are caused during the production process when the gas is released into the atmosphere. Source. Ironically, as society switches to electric vehicles and thereby increases the transimission of electricty to charge these vehicles, more SF6 will be leaked into the atmosphere which has a far greater greenhouse effect than CO2.
Climate change: Electrical industry`s `dirty secret` boosts warming. Some quotes from the BBC article:

Albedo is the reflective properties of an object and how much energy it retains versus reflects away from itself. The earth also has an Albedo effect. Dr. Denis Rancourt gave a lecture in 2015 at the University of Ottawa on the effects of albedo and climate change. Universe Today published an article in 2004 that explains how albedo rose from 1985 to 1996 and heated up the earth. As far back as 2004 scientists already suspected that albedo might also be contributing earth`s temperature increase.
The easiest example to give on albedo would be comparing two similar objects of different colour on a sunny day, such as a white car and a black car parked next to each other in a parking lot. If you were to touch both cars with your hands you would notice that the black car is much warmer.
Since industrialization, humans have transformed the surface of the earth through deforestation and therefore its albedo effect. In the mid 1800`s there were no paved roads and few concrete cities. The cities we had were for a population of about 1.5 billion people, now we have cities for 7.5 billion people, about a 500% increase. Compare the temperature of grass on a sunny day to a paved road and there is a big difference. As of 2017 there is an estimated 38,491,768 km of roads in the world, something that didn`t even exist 170+ years ago. To see how cities affect albedo, at night take a drive in the country outside of a city then drive into that city and you will notice up to a 5 degress Celsius increase since concrete cities store energy(heat) that is then released back into the atmosphere at night.
Improved estimates of preindustrial biomass burning reduce the magnitude of aerosol climate forcing in the Southern Hemisphere The albedo effects of smoke prior to the industrial revolution has a greater influence on climate than first estimated.
Earth is dimming due to climate change. "...referring to the earthshine data from 1998 to 2017...Once this significant additional solar energy is in Earth's atmosphere and oceans, it may contribute to global warming, as the extra sunlight is of the same magnitude as the total anthropogenic climate forcing over the last two decades."
A GSA article estimated that "83 percent of the total land surface...is directly influenced by human activities." This influence affects Albedo.

Climate change to open up 'frontier' farmland, but experts urge caution.
- In a few more decades, potatoes from the Russian tundra and corn from once-frigid areas of Canada could be added to the list as vast swathes of land previously unsuited to agriculture open up to farmers on a hotter planet.
- Climate change could expand farmland globally by almost a third, a study by international researchers found last week.
- "In a warming world, Canada`s north may become our breadbasket of the future," the scientists wrote.
Stronger drought resistance of urban vegetation due to higher temperature, CO2 and reduced O3.
Not only do plants benefit from increases in CO2, but plants also become more drought resistant with increases in temperatures.
- The team used statistical analysis and found that enhanced drought resistance of urban vegetation was attributed to increased temperature and CO2 concentration...
- ...temperature can enhance the growth in drought conditions because we see that vegetation has an extended growth season...
First, let`s look at the definition of pollution.
Dictionary.com: the introduction of harmful substances or products into the environment.

NASA.gov: Carbon Dioxide Fertilization Greening Earth, Study Finds
The above two links explain that CO2 is a vital nutrient for plant growth. If CO2 levels were to ever drop to 150 ppm or lower, photosynthesis would stop and most plants would begin to die, followed by humans. Optimum levels of
CO2 for plant growth are 1200 ppm. With our current levels around 410, more would be better, not worse.
Medical science states "Asthma patients reduce symptoms, improve lung function with shallow breaths, more carbon dioxide". How can a pollutant help asthma patients breathe easier? Only if it is not a pollutant.
The Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs states that:
Plant responses to increasing CO2 reduce estimates of climate impacts on drought severity:
"...water savings that plants experience under high CO2 conditions compensate for much of the effect of warmer temperatures, keeping the amount of water on land, on average, higher than we would predict with common drought metrics, and with a different spatial pattern. The implications of plants needing less water under high CO2 reaches beyond drought prediction to the assessment of climate change impacts on agriculture, water resources, wildfire risk, and vegetation dynamics."
Below, you will find other scientific articles that contradict Suzuki and the IPCC regarding the benefits to increased CO2 for plant growth.
An April 2016 study by the Pacific Institute for Climate Solutions found that "greenhouse gas CO2 produces a 'fertilization effect'... more CO2-rich conditions allow high-latitude forests to recover faster from harvest, fire and insect disturbances".
It would be logical to assume that all trees in the world along with other vegetion such as food crops would also benefit from the CO2 increases. Another fact the IPCC always forgets to mention.
Shrub growth helps counteract climate warming, says University of Alberta researcher "Changes to plant life in the arctic may actually help reduce climate warming in some regions, a University of Alberta researcher has discovered."
A July 2013 article from Physics.org, states, "High CO2 spurs wetlands to absorb more carbon", according to a 19-year study published in Global Change Biology from the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center in Edgewater, Md
A November 30, 2015 article from Physics.org,
states, "High concentration of CO2 protects sorghum against drought and improves seeds", according to the University of Sao Paulo`s Bioscience Institute (IB-USP) in Brazil.
"The rising atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2), chief among the greenhouse gases fueling global warming and climate change, is beneficial for the physiology of sorghum, an economically and nutritionally important crop grown worldwide."
Despite all the IPCC doom and gloom predictions of droughts and starvation because of AGW, Africa in recent years is improving and doing very well with their food production.
Africa: Continent of Plenty, a 2013 article from the IEEE,
This chart shows the different milestone ranges of CO2 in ppm. They are:
There is nothing in farming, horticulture or palaeontology to suggest that increases in CO2 is bad. All life does better with increased levels of CO2. Our current levels of CO2 are well below the optimum level for plant growth and we should actually consider increasing this level to support an increasing world population. Trying to lower CO2 levels would likely hinder plant growth and put poor people`s lives at risk.
CO2 levels around 1,300 ppm is good for plant growth. CO2 levels below 340 ppm is bad for plant growth. Life on earth depends on healthy plant growth. It is inconceivable to suggest CO2 is a pollutant and is just an outright lie.
CO2 does not meet the definition of a pollutant. CO2 is a natually occurring molecule that is benficial to plant growth because it is a plant nutrient. It is also essential to keeping the planet from freezing up. CO2 does not cause any breathing problems in humans and can actually help asthma sufferers. CO2 is no more a pollutant than H2O (water vapor) is. Any website or news article that refers to CO2 as pollution is misleading and deceiving. Water vapor (H2O) is also a greenhouse gas. Will the alarmists one day refer to water as a pollutant too?
The below image was taken from a typical climate change report. Notice how most of the graphs start at different years, depending on when the data was favourable for them to start charting.
The source (select page 38) of the chart above comes from globalchange.gov, a website funded by 13 US government agencies. The graphs around the central image explain how measured data is affecting the planet because of CO2. The graphs are based on real data, however the graphs don`t show all the data.

Antarctic ice loss has tripled in a decade. If that continues, we are in serious trouble. This is an example of a typical

NASA Study: Mass Gains of Antarctic Ice Sheet Greater than Losses
A new 2015 NASA study says that an increase in Antarctic snow accumulation that began 10,000 years ago is currently adding enough ice to the continent to outweigh the increased losses from its thinning glaciers.
The research challenges the conclusions of other studies, including the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) 2013 report, which says that Antarctica is overall losing land ice.

While solar panels and wind turbine construction has decreased in price, the production of electricity from these sources still tends to be the most expensive. The most affordable and clean way to produce electricity is nuclear. California is very pro green energy with the use of solar panels however they also have the highest electricity rates in the USA paying as much as 40% more. Calif. Power Rates Go Up 80 Percent. Despite California`s over production of unpredictable electricity, they also mandated that all new houses are to have solar panels installed on their roofs. This will not only drive up the cost of electricity even more but also increase the cost of buying a house!

The structure of the IPCC is set up in such a way to create bias to AGW. Authors and experts who submit research to the IPCC must conform to a
preconceived expectation that AGW is real, IPCC Authors and Experts.
Authors: "...selected by the relevant Working Group/Task Force Bureau... from among experts listed by governments and participating organizations...". In other words, only scientists from
an accepted list by their government are allowed to submit research to the IPCC.
Review Editors: "... ensure that all substantive expert and government review comments are afforded appropriate consideration by the author teams, advise Lead Authors on how to handle contentious/controversial issues...". In other words, articles must reflect government views
and contentious/controversial issues must be dealt with. Scientific articles that disagree too much with the government and IPCC are subject to some kind of editing.
For years many scientists have spoken up about their disagreements with the IPCC results. Below are some brief samples of scientists and their concerns with the IPCC:
Some scientific studies that actually state that current climate models are inaccurate:
Cancel-culture not only exists in climate science but also other parts of society. Recently, J. K. Rowling was cancelled from the Harry Potter 20th anniversary special because her views on what is a biological female vs transgender people. If J. K. Rowling can be cancelled from her own creation, then anyone can be cancelled for not being politically correct.
Cancel culture is everywhere. New scientists just beginning their careers and perhaps starting a family cannot afford to risk their careers fighting a large political battle. It is easier to just turn a blind eye and "do their jobs".
Why the deception about CO2 and its effects on climate? The most common and repetitive reason humans deceive other humans is money. CO2 is everywhere from transportation, energy, livestock, agriculture, construction, etc. By turning CO2 into a commodity, governments have given a monetary value to an otherwise natural and meaningless gas. It can be traded (for cap-and-trade points) and taxed.
A very large and powerful organization called the Socialists International, which seek to establish democratic socialism, has an objective of forming one large global government. They support the UN as this global government. Earlier versions of this group consisted of socialist, communist and anarchist political groups and trade unions.
The United Nations is an unelected global government organization that has ties into almost every country and industry around the world. Its bank is The World Bank (Document). "Based on an agreement between the United Nations and the World Bank in 1981, Development Business became the official source for World Bank Procurement Notices, Contract Awards, and Project Approvals". The World Bank or the World Bank Group is also a sitting observer in the United Nations Development Group. From here you can see how the World Bank tracks each country`s CO2 emissions: Document. From here you can see how the World Bank now tracks CO2 pricing as if it were a commodity: Document.
The IPCC is funded by governments from many countries around the world (an IPCC Trust Fund established in 1989 by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO)).
The UN, IPCC and World Bank are financially tied to each other. The UN funds the IPCC which in turn promotes AGW which then allows The World Bank to place a financial price on each country`s CO2 emmissions which then generates revenue from all the Paris Accord countries (as of March 2019, 195 members have signed on). It is a circular hierarchy.
What does the UN want with all this money? According to their Agenda, they administer a global welfare program where rich countries financially support poor countries. How much money do they need? The UN has 17 goals and according to Goal 17, section Data, monitoring and accountability, for 2016 they spent $623 billion on global welfare.
Christine Stewart - Former Federal Liberal Minister of the Evironment: "No matter if the science of global warming is all phony...climate change [provides] the greatest opportunity to bring about justice and equality in the world." a.k.a. carbon taxes for social welfare.
Turning CO2 into a commodity that can be taxed has made for a quick and easy way to get more money from working people. While welfare in itself is not a bad thing, when it is controlled by an unelected political organization like the UN, the people paying this tax have no say in how much they pay or how it is used. This is undemocratic and dangerous. With billions of dollars at stake to be made, this cannot be overlooked.
The average human lifespan is about 85 years, give or take 10 years, So, any events that occurred 95 or more years ago are long forgotten with humans living today. This means heat waves, forest fires, flooding and droughts that occur today appear to be a new phenomenon that we don`t think occurred centuries before, or at least so the alarmists and politicians would have us believe.

This is from the perspective of one scientist, Dr. William Happer. Many other scientists have similar experiences.
This is from the perspective of another scientist, Dr. Judith Curry. Many other scientists have similar experiences.

For years Dr. Happer has warned politicians about the fallacies of climate alarmism including a 2010 Hearing on Climate and Energy. Similarly in 2018, President Trump tried to warn Germany and other European countries about depending on Russian gas for their energy. In both cases, world politicians just could not comprehend their warnings until 2022 with the world energy crisis.
COVID-19 was/is a virus that caused severe illness and death to many people, far worse than the seasonal flu. Fighting this illness required that our governments had to take extreme measures to protect its citizens, including violating our Charter of Rights at times. This included being forced to wear masks, social distancing, not visiting family and friends, isolating for two weeks at a time, disclosing your medical status to your employer and threats of being fired if you do not, etc. While these measures were necessary to save lives, it also became a rehersal and blueprint for how our governments could possibly violate our rights for other causes.
Many governments are now calling climate change a serious threat to humanity. They have begun taking away our rights by telling us what kinds of cars we can and cannot drive, how we must heat our homes, how much we should travel by plane to other countries, how much meat to eat, carbon taxes to take away our savings, etc. Citizens being complacent with these violations only encourages governments to take more away from us. Being a silent majority is no longer acceptable and is actually dangerous for future generations
Let not any one pacify his conscience by the delusion that he can do no harm if he takes no part, and forms no opinion. Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing. He is not a good man who, without a protest, allows wrong to be committed in his name, and with the means which he helps to supply, because he will not trouble himself to use his mind on the subject. - John Stuart Mill
Society can and does execute its own mandates: and if it issues wrong mandates instead of right, or any mandates at all in things with which it ought not to meddle, it practises a social tyranny more formidable than many kinds of political oppression, since, though not usually upheld by such extreme penalties, it leaves fewer means of escape, penetrating much more deeply into the details of life, and enslaving the soul itself. - John Stuart Mill
This is a list of all the science articles referenced in the paragraphs above. This shows how many scientific articles there are that contradict the IPCC's claims to a CO2-only climate change scenario.
