New DOE report final death knell for Net Zero in the U.S. as it breaks down climate science’s flaws
08/05/2025 / By Willow Tohi
A report from the Energy Department challenges climate orthodoxy, asserting aggressive net-zero policies may be more harmful than beneficial.
Scientists criticize climate models (like RCP8.5) for unreliable projections and question extreme weather attribution studies.
The report highlights CO2’s role in global greening and economic benefits versus politicized fears.
A controversial heatwave analysis claims climate change made record temperatures 35× more likely, sparking debate over methodological rigor.
Authors emphasize U.S. climate policies’ negligible global impact and advocate for pragmatic energy solutions.
Last week, a landmark Department of Energy (DOE) report authored by five prominent scientists cast sweeping doubt on the foundational claims of climate alarmism, asserting that aggressive net-zero policies could harm the economy more than warming itself. The 396-page Critical Review of Impacts of Greenhouse Gas Emissions on the U.S. Climate concludes that carbon dioxide-driven climate effects are less economically damaging than often claimed, and that U.S. climate policies would cause “undetectably small” global impacts, with benefits delayed centuries. The report, authored by Dr. John Christy, Dr. Judith Curry, Dr. Steven Koonin, Dr. Ross McKitrick and Dr. Roy Spencer, has reignited debates over the scientific and political narratives guiding energy policy.
