Two articles on Tony Blair
He now prefers a ‘technocratic‘ solution to climate change.
And, he is still supporting a digital ID for all the UK.
In defence of dimming the Sun
Not sure about this, but an interesting point of view certainly.

The Overpopulation Fallacy: Why More People Means More Knowledge and Prosperity
Article by Amir Iraji.
For decades, the dominant narrative surrounding population growth has been one of alarm. Thinkers like Malthus warned that population growth would cause mass starvation and ecological collapse. Ehrlich’s 1968 book The Population Bomb famously predicted that hundreds of millions of people would starve in the 1970s due to overpopulation.
Today, concerns are shifting. Many of the same governments that once feared overpopulation are now worried about declining birth rates. Countries like Japan, South Korea, and much of Europe struggle with economic stagnation and aging populations. Even China—after enforcing its coercive One-Child Policy—is now encouraging larger families. This shift raises an important question: where did the fear of overpopulation come from, and was it ever justified?

When a Forecast Flops: Post-Hoc Rationalization in Climate Science
Article by Charles Rotter.
Excerpt:
Mann’s post inadvertently highlights a key issue in climate science: the gap between predictive confidence and observed outcomes. When forecasts fail, climate scientists often claim the climate system is no longer behaving predictably—implying their models are still right, just incapable of adapting to a “changing system.” This raises a critical question: If the system is behaving unpredictably, how can forecasts demand such unwavering trust, let alone justify sweeping climate policies?
It’s a win: Bankers are backing away from the Monster Banking Climate Cartel
It’s become a flood
Article by Jo Nova.
Excerpt:
It’s a good start to 2025 — just quietly, the money is exiting the Monster Banker Climate Cartel. Since the Trump win, the bankers are running away suddenly from the United Nations “Net-Zero Banking Alliance” (NZBA) which is a sub-part of GFANZ (the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero) — the world’s largest and richest climate activists club. GFANZ is the public face of every kind of global financial-bullying-to-save-the-world. Economically, the monster collective could eat whole nations for breakfast. At one point the collective assets-under-management were as valued at the fantastical conglomeration of $130 trillion. It is the hydra-head hissing at superannuation funds and national treasurers that don’t comply with sacred green goals. Who cares what the voters want?
Environmental Kuznets curve
Definition: The environmental Kuznets curve suggests that economic development initially leads to a deterioration in the environment, but after a certain level of economic growth, a society begins to improve its relationship with the environment and levels of environmental degradation reduces.
From a very simplistic viewpoint, it can suggest that economic growth is good for the environment.
However, critics argue there is no guarantee that economic growth will lead to an improved environment – in fact, the opposite is often the case. At the least, it requires a very targeted policy and attitudes to make sure that economic growth is compatible with an improving environment.
