Arctic sea ice extent is about the same now as it was 36 years ago, when the Chinese government banned and criminalized dissent.

The BBC ran an article this week quoting Harrison Schmitt in 1972, showing a picture he took, and comparing it to a recent picture.  The point was to show how earth had changed due to global warming.  The pictures didn’t show any such such thing, and Harrison Schmitt is a high profile climate skeptic.

“the areal extent of sea-ice in the Northern Hemisphere has varied about a constant climatological level but in 1972-1975 sea-ice extent was significantly less. ”

Fifty years ago climate scientists wanted to melt the polar ice caps to save us from global cooling. Now they want to blot out the sun to save us from global warming.

Fifty years ago, climatologists wanted to save the ignorant peasants from global cooling.

“Climatologists are pessimistic that political leaders will take any positive action to compensate for the climatic change, or even to allay its effects. They concede that some of the more spectacular solutions proposed, such as melting the arctic ice cap by covering it with black soot or diverting arctic rivers, might create problems far greater than those they solve. But the scientists see few signs that government leaders anywhere are even prepared to take the simple measures of stockpiling food or of introducing the variables of climatic uncertainty into economic projections of future food supplies. The longer the planners delay, the more difficult will they find it to cope with climatic change once the results become grim reality.”

The year 1601 was the coldest year on record, following the year 1600 eruption of Mt. Huaynaputina in Peru.  This led to mass starvation and crop failures.  The UK Government is attempting a repeat.

Sea surface temperatures have been rapidly declining.  This experiment appears to be timed to take credit for something which was already occurring.

There have been more than 6,000 crimes reported in Washington DC so far this year.  This map shows the first 1,000 of that list.  The map shows that there have been no crimes committed by Congress.

“Climate 200 plays a critical role in the David and Goliath battles independents have against the major parties.

It is no longer just candidates and parties that participate in elections – many fossil fuel backed third party organisations also aggressively campaign against candidates pushing for greater climate action.”

“Last month, something revolutionary quietly took place. On March 28, 2025, the world received its first-ever monthly Climate Data update on global greenhouse gas emissions—derived not from self-reported pledges or slow-moving government reports, but from direct, verified observation. Using satellites, sensors, and artificial intelligence, Climate TRACE delivered precise emissions data with just a 60-day lag.”
