The new job isn’t anything special. I could leave it without a second thought if something unusual happened—like my ebook sales skyrocketed or I found funding for my research. But as we well know, skeptics are not on the receiving end of billions of dollars in funding, so it may be a few years before I can afford to go back to blogging full time again. I’m already going through blogger withdrawals.

I hope to continue to produce the monthly sea surface temperature and global land+sea surface temperature updates, but it’s unlikely that I will be able to continue to pump out other data-supported blog posts that illustrate the failings in climate models, that expose the flaws in the hypothesis of human-induced global warming and that the present the faults in the studies that support it.

I did start writing a new book back in October and I hope to complete it in the first half 2014. The working title is The Oceans Ate My Global Warming (Subtitle: And other nonsense from climate scientists.) With the new book I’ve been trying to reduce the complexity of my presentations, by limiting my discussions to one topic per short (4-5 page) chapter (lots of short single-topic chapters). Unfortunately, as all but a few best-selling writers know, it’s damn near impossible to support oneself on book sales.

I have really enjoyed my research and sharing what I’ve found. There is much more to be discovered. And it will be found through data analysis, not climate models.
