World Climate Declaration There is no climate emergency
clintel.org, August 31, 2022, world climate declaration
Climate science should be less political, while climate policies should be more scientific. In particular, scientists should emphasize that their modeling output is not the result of magic: computer models are human-made. What comes out is fully dependent on what theoreticians and programmers have put in: hypotheses, assumptions, relationships, parameterizations, stability constraints, etc. Unfortunately, in mainstream climate science most of this input is undeclared.
To believe the outcome of a climate model is to believe what the model makers have put in. This is precisely the problem of today’s climate discussion to which climate models are central. Climate science has degenerated into a discussion based on beliefs, not on sound self-critical science. We should free ourselves from the naïve belief in immature climate models. In future, climate research must give significantly more emphasis to empirical science.
There is no climate emergency
A global network of over 1200 scientists and professionals has prepared this urgent message. Climate science should be less political, while climate policies should be more scientific. Scientists should openly address uncertainties and exaggerations in their predictions of global warming, while politicians should dispassionately count the real costs as well as the imagined benefits of their policy measures.
Natural as well as anthropogenic factors cause warming
The geological archive reveals that Earth’s climate has varied as long as the planet has existed, with natural cold and warm phases. The Little Ice Age ended as recently as 1850. Therefore, it is no surprise that we now are experiencing a period of warming.
Warming is far slower than predicted
The world has warmed significantly less than predicted by IPCC on the basis of modeled anthropogenic forcing. The gap between the real world and the modeled world tells us that we are far from understanding climate change.
Climate policy relies on inadequate models
Climate models have many shortcomings and are not remotely plausible as global policy tools. They blow up the effect of greenhouse gases such as CO2. In addition, they ignore the fact that enriching the atmosphere with CO2 is beneficial.
CO2 is plant food, the basis of all life on Earth
CO2 is not a pollutant. It is essential to all life on Earth. Photosynthesis is a blessing. More CO2 is beneficial for nature, greening the Earth: additional CO2 in the air has promoted growth in global plant biomass. It is also good for agriculture, increasing the yields of crops worldwide.
Global warming has not increased natural disasters
There is no statistical evidence that global warming is intensifying hurricanes, floods, droughts and suchlike natural disasters, or making them more frequent. However, there is ample evidence that CO2-mitigation measures are as damaging as they are costly.
Climate policy must respect scientific and economic realities
There is no climate emergency. Therefore, there is no cause for panic and alarm. We strongly oppose the harmful and unrealistic net-zero CO2 policy proposed for 2050. If better approaches emerge, and they certainly will, we have ample time to reflect and re-adapt. The aim of global policy should be ‘prosperity for all’ by providing reliable and affordable energy at all times. In a prosperous society men and women are well educated, birthrates are low and people care about their environment.
Epilogue
The World Climate Declaration (WCD) has brought a large variety of competent scientists together from all over the world*. The considerable knowledge and experience of this group is indispensable in reaching a balanced, dispassionate and competent view of climate change.
From now onward the group is going to function as “Global Climate Intelligence Group”. The CLINTEL Group will give solicited and unsolicited advice on climate change and energy transition to governments and companies worldwide.
* It is not the number of experts but the quality of arguments that counts

Es gibt keinen Klimanotstand
clintel.org/germany-wcd,
Ein Zusammenschluss von 1200 Wissenschaftlern und Fachleuten wendet sich mit dieser wichtigen Mitteilung an die Öffentlichkeit: Die Klimawissenschaften müssen dringend entpolitisiert werden. Gleichzeitig sollte die Klimapolitik wissenschaftlicher werden. Wissenschaftler müssen verbleibende Unsicherheiten klar benennen und Übertreibungen in ihren Klimavorhersagen vermeiden. Politiker sollten das Kosten-Nutzen-Verhältnis ihrer Klimapolitik realistischer einschätzen.
Klimaerwärmung hat anthropogene und natürliche Ursachen
Geologische Untersuchungen belegen, dass sich das Klima stets gewandelt hat, geprägt durch ein natürliches Wechselspiel zwischen Kalt- und Warmphasen. Die Kleine Eiszeit endete um 1850, wobei die darauffolgende moderne Ewärmung gut ins Bild passt.
Erwärmung läuft langsamer ab als von Modellen vorhergesagt
Das Klima hat sich in den letzten Jahrzehnten lediglich halb so schnell erwärmt wie ursprünglich vom Weltklimarat IPCC auf Basis von Computermodellen vorhergesagt. Dies zeigt, dass wir die klimatischen Zusammenhänge noch immer zu schlecht verstehen, um hierauf weitreichende Planungen gründen zu können.
Klimapolitik fußt auf unausgereiften Modellen
Klimamodelle haben noch zu viele Schwächen und eignen sich daher nicht als politische Planungsgrundlage. Die Erwärmungswirkung des CO2 wird in den Modellen signifikant zu hoch angesetzt. Für das Wachstum von Pflanzen bringt eine höhere CO2-Konzentration in der Atmosphäre sogar Vorteile.
CO2 stellt die Nahrungsgrundlage der Pflanzenwelt dar
CO2 ist kein Giftstoff, sondern ist die Basis der Photosynthese. Eine höhere CO2-Konzentration lässt die Erde ergrünen, kurbelt das Pflanzenwachstum an. Auch die Landwirtschaft kann profitieren, da sich Ernten steigern lassen.
Extremwetter vom Klimawandel weitgehend unberührt
Bislang konnte keine Zunahme von Hurrikanen, Überflutungen, Dürren und anderer Extremwetterarten festgestellt werden, trotz Klimaerwärmung. Hingegen haben einige Klimaschutzmaßnahmen bereits starke ökologische Schäden angerichtet und hohe Kosten bei geringem Nutzen verursacht.
Klimapolitik muss wissenschaftliche und ökonomische Realitäten anerkennen
Es gibt keinen Klimanotstand. Es gibt daher auch keinen Grund in Hysterie und Panikmodus zu verfallen. Wir sind gegen die geplante Klimaneutralität bis 2050, die viel Wohlstand in der Gesellschaft vernichten wird. Wir haben mehr Zeit für die Dekarbonisierung und die Entwicklung adäquater technischer Lösungen. Ein lohnenderes Ziel internationaler politischer Anstrengungen sollte die verlässliche Versorgung der Weltbevölkerung mit erschwinglicher Energie sein. Dies wäre die Grundlage um Armut effektiv und entschlossen zu bekämpfen. Wir sollten den Menschen Zugang zu Bildung verschaffen, die Geburtenrate nachhaltig senken und uns auf Umweltschutz im ursprünglichen Sinne konzentrieren.
