RealClimate: Climate Scientists response to DOE report

2 Sep 2025 by Gavin 6 Comments

As we’ve mentioned, Andrew Dessler and Robert Kopp have been coordinating a scientific peer review of the DOW ‘CWG’ Critique of Climate Science. It is now out.


The comments are available here, and there is a press release that gives a summary. It has been picked up by some the media already: NY Times, The Guardian, CNN, Axios etc.

This effort brought in 85 scientists (13 times as many as the CWG report – a clear example of Brandolini’s Law!) who cover a much broader range of expertise that the DOE report. One of the quotes from the scientists (not US-based interestingly) is a good summary:

This 2025 DOE report does not evaluate the extensive available evidence in good faith.

One person who commented on the chapter 6 on Extreme events and Tropical Cyclones is Kerry Emanuel, and he has expanded his comments into a post here. (Note if any of the other scientists involved would like to do similarly, just drop us a line).

Note that comments on the EPA proposed ruling are due September 22, 2025.
