The Welcome Demise of Climate Change Catastrophism
Public belief in human-driven climate change and willingness for drastic action are declining, with a key 2024 Nature study retracted for flawed data.
- Recently, the journal Nature formally retracted a high-profile 2024 study after peer reviewers found flawed data and the study's authors withdrew the paper.
- Recent polling shows the intensity of climate dread is weakening, with 69% of the U.S. public saying warming is happening and 60% calling it `mostly human-caused`, Yale Program on Climate Change Communication found.
- Bill Gates wrote on Oct. 28 that `the doomsday view of climate change` is `wrong` and that humanity will `live and thrive in most places on Earth for the foreseeable future`.
- With elites recoiling, leading liberal voices and ruling-class elites retreat from alarmist messaging as American political dynamics shift toward affordability and more hydrocarbon extraction.
- The retracted Nature study had predicted a calamitous 62% decline in global economic output by 2100, but without its data the projection collapses dramatically to around 23%.
