Are global temperatures rising? Surely, they were rising from the late 1970s to 1998, but 'there has been no net global warming since 1998.'

Do you really like studying?" Mattia nodded. "Why?" "It's the only thing I know how to do," he said shortly.

The climate change debate is basically not about science; it is about ideology. It is not about global temperature; it is about the concept of human society.

The close relationships between the abrupt ups and downs of solar activity and of temperature that I have identified occur locally in coastal Greenland; regionally in the Arctic Pacific and north Atlantic; and hemispherically for the whole circum-Arctic, suggesting that changes in solar activity drive Arctic and perhaps even global climate.
-- Willie Soon
