Dr Chris Scotese, author of the Paleomap Project, says of those times, in the early Triassic, ~245 million years ago,

“Warm Temperate climates extended to the Poles.”

The science of plate tectonics was unknown in my days as a Geology Continue reading ““Climate Change Making Days Longer,” studies say, Part THREE”

I used the 19 August 2023 meeting of CASF as an opportunity to describe some of what I call the “insanity” of the climate alarmist Continue reading “In Search of the Perfect Dozen Graphics to show the Climate Alarmists are Wrong”
