New paper on Earth's global mean temperature & CO2 levels for the last 485 million years.

"A 485-million-year history of Earth’s surface temperature" Judd et al 2024

"Atmospheric CO2 exerts a dominant control on GMST, both today and in the geologic past"

I had an engagement with blogger, failed California gubernatorial candidate, and self-identified reporter Michael Shellenberger this past week, which started out being about this new paper being heralded by climate skeptics as disproving global sea-level acceleration. (LONG 🧵)

NOAA scientists must get approval for all international:
Meetings (in person and virtual)
Emails to colleagues
Phonecalls, Zoom, etc.

Cross-border research funds are frozen.

Words like climate change are red flags for review.

New post on The Climate Brink from Zeke @hausfath.bsky.social about our climate future. With current policies, we’re on track for a bit less than 3C, with 2030 NDCs we’re on track for about 2.5C, and with net zero pledges we’re on track for a bit less than 2C.

Joe Rogan made a misleading claim about the Los Angeles wildfire recently. However, whatever the ignition source may turn out to be, (lightning, power cable, accidental, arson) Climate change makes it easier for fires to start and to spread. This video explains why: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-dz...

This is a GREAT reply to the #ClimateChange talking point "But the climate ALWAYS changes!"

"Earth’s climate has fluctuated through deep time, pushed by 10 different natural causes. Here’s how each compares with today's far more RAPID manmade climate change."

Unsurprisingly, Kemi Badenoch (who herself is mixing with fossil fuel lobby groups) has nominated climate change denier and member of the BP funded Institute of economic affairs Toby Young as a life peer. Toby is a massive source of disinfo on social media, See www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlfW...

Contributing to the *ongoing record low* sea ice conditions in the #Arctic (for this time of year; see yesterday's posts) is a very slow freeze-up in the Barents Sea region... Compare 2024 to the 1980s (purple lines)

Data from NSIDC Sea Ice Index v3. Map of this region zacklabe.com/arctic-clima....
Line graph time series of 2024's daily Arctic sea ice extent compared to each year from 1979 to 2023 as shown with thin lines in colors from purple to white. This graph is for the Barents Sea region only. There is large daily variability, but a long-term decreasing trend during all months of the year. A seasonal cycle is also visible in this region.

Wielicki is a dishonest disinformer about climate change. He misrepresents himself as an "expert", but it's not his field.

See this long thread (50+posts) refuting his disinformation.

Includes the incident where he got caught using Chat-GPT to create a list of fake papers.

Your graph is an old fake. It's from Monte Heib's (mining engineer) blog

Wielicki couldn't get tenure at UAH.

His h-index was really low (9) & he was making a fool of himself by posting easily refuted disinformation & ignorant opinions about climate change on social media.

Matthew Wielicki (aka Matt-GPT) claimed he was being "silenced" when he got caught out using Chat-GPT to create quotes from fake non-existent papers.

This was after he tried to cover it up by insulting & "silencing" (blocking) everyone who re-posted the evidence. 😂

See Matthew Wielicki's posts on X about getting his account suspended.

He's still lying and misrepresenting himself as an "expert" on climate change. It's not his field. He has zero published research papers on climate change.

He monetises disinformation on social media.
