Karl Popper was an early critic of the strategies that scientists use to protect the ruling theory.

He saw the problem in institutional terms and the political economist Gordon Tulloch took up the theme and wrote The Organization of Inquiry (1966)

This review of a dreadful book on climate science provides more substance on the context of the problem and the institutional constraints that Popper and Tulloch addressed.

Thanks once again for your valuable analyese during this year!

I have the strong impression that all these "net zero", technically ignorant nutcases who are doing their best to destroy our European civilisation and freedom, will themselves be destroyed by our democratically elected, "extreme rightwing" movements, early in 2026!

One thought to consider, however, is that most of the affordable energy resources that supply more than 80% of our primary energy needs are derived from the World's very finite reserves of fossil fuels!

Happy New Year, everyone!
