Background
David Rose is a British author and journalist who has published a wide range of articles challenging man-made climate change, frequently citing material and reports from the Global Warming Policy Foundation (GWPF) and global warming skeptics such as Judith Curry, and Benny Peiser, of the GWPF.
Rose is the investigations editor at UnHerd, an opinion-based digital media outlet owned by GB News and Alliance for Responsible Citizenship (ARC) proprietor Paul Marshall.2“David Rose,” Unherd. Archived February 25, 2025. Archived .pdf on file at DeSmog.
Rose has repeatedly suggested the disputed theory that there has been a global warming “pause,” and has previously suggested Britain may experience another ice age. Skeptical Science has described Rose as a “leading purveyor of the myth.”3David Rose. “Forget global warming – it’s Cycle 25 we need to worry about (and if NASA scientists are right the Thames will be freezing over again),” The Mail on Sunday, January 29, 2012.

Davis Rose‘s first job was as a reporter with the London magazine Time Out (1981 – 1984), and his since worked with a range of papers and magazines including The Guardian (which has itself since published critiques of Rose’s articles at the Mail on Sunday), The Observer, and BBC Current affairs TV. Rose became a freelance writer in 2000, later a contributing editor of Vanity Fair in 2002, and in 2008 a special investigations writer for the Mail on Sunday.7“David Rose: writer and journalist,” LinkedIn.

Writing in the New Statesman, Rose described his work with British intelligence disseminating what he described as “sheer disinformation.” According to Rose, if he was told something by the secret service and it proved to be false, “there would be no comeback, no accountability. I could put up, or shut up.” He also added “To my everlasting regret, I strongly supported the Iraq invasion, in person and in print.”9“Spies and their lies,” New Statesman, September 27, 2007.

DeSmog previously reported on David Rose’s “misinformation legacy,” pointing to an article by The Guardian’s George Monbiot who summed up Rose’s errors over time. Monbiot also wrote of Rose’s potential role in the Iraq war, noting that The Observer “was strongly influenced by Rose’s reporting” at the time. “Rose’s articles for the paper uncritically reported the claims made by Ahmed Chalabi and the Iraqi National Congress about Saddam Hussein’s alleged weapons of mass destruction. Chalabi later admitted that they were incorrect,” Monbiot wrote.10Kevin Grandia. “David Rose’s Misinformation Legacy from WMD to Climate Change,” DeSmog, September 17, 2013. 11George Monbiot. “David Rose’s climate science writing shows he has not learned from previous mistakes,” The Guardian, December 8, 2010.

“Since the Iraq debacle, Rose has latterly been writing articles attacking climate science for the Daily Mail. He has distinguished himself by the same uncritical reliance on dodgy sources that caused his catastrophic mistakes about Iraq,” Monbiot added.
In 2013, Media Matters named Rose’s publication, the Daily Mail “2013 Climate Change Misinformer of the Year” for its stirring up of “faux controversies about climate science.” In 2014, Greenpeace made an official release noting that David Rose is “not a credible source.”12Shauna Theel and Denise Robbins. “Climate Change Misinformer Of The Year: The Daily Mail,” Media Matters, December 30, 2013.

In an article for UnHerd titled “Ed Miliband’s Net Zero plan will make blackouts more likely”, Rose argued that, despite the Labour government’s decarbonisation plan, the UK should “retain all 35GW of existing gas-fired capacity“ for times when the wind isn’t blowing.20David Rose. “Ed Miliband’s Net Zero plan will make blackouts more likely,” Unherd, January 17, 2025.

Rose also questioned the veracity of a statement from the UK’s publicly-owned National Energy System Operator (Neso) that Britain was not at risk of a blackout on the record-breaking cold night of 8 January, suggesting that “Neso claims it could have kept the lights on”, but “has not said exactly how”.
He amplified claims by science denial campaign group Net Zero Watch that “Miliband’s plan to make Britain a ‘clean energy superpower’ […] will make the risks [of blackouts] much worse”

On Twitter, Rose admited doubt on the “promised shale gas bonanza” in the UK. Rose was responding to a Twitter comment by “Bishop Hill” critical of a recent Financial Post article on Blackpool for failing to mention recent drilling by the shale gas firm Quadrilla:21“Well, right now the promised shale gas bonanza looks more distant than sustainable power from nuclear fusion, so arguably not […]” Twitter post by @DavidRoseUK, November 16, 2017.

“Global average temperatures over land have plummeted by more than 1C since the middle of this year – their biggest and steepest fall on record,” Rose writes. ” The fall, revealed by Nasa satellite measurements of the lower atmosphere, has been caused by the end of El Nino – the warming of surface waters in a vast area of the Pacific west of Central America.”22“Stunning new data indicates El Nino drove record highs in global temperatures suggesting rise may not be down to man-made emissions,” The Mail on Sunday, November 26, 2016.

David Rose contributed a piece for The Mail on Sunday with the title “Why all you’ve been told about these polar bears could be WRONG.” The story cites anecdotal reports from a single Inuit village on the Western shores of Hudson Bay in Canada to refute the widely held belief that climate change poses an existential threat to the animals.28David Rose. “Why all you’ve been told about these polar bears could be WRONG,” The Daily Mail. December 29, 2018. Archived January 4, 2019. Archive.is URL: http://archive.vn/Fqt0w
Rose was told of increased sightings of the bears and more frequent interactions with villagers, including one fatal attack on an Inuit hunter. After visiting the remote village, Rose concluded that reports of dwindling numbers of polar bears and declining health in remaining animals due to climate change were overstated:
“Activists claim that polar bears are ‘the canary in the coalmine’ that proves how dangerous climate change is, not only to bears but humans. But what if they chose the wrong species? And if the scientists are wrong about the bears, will it be only the Inuit who become more skeptical?”29David Rose. “Why all you’ve been told about these polar bears could be WRONG,” The Daily Mail.

However, he also quoted a representative of Polar Bears International (PBI) who presented the prevailing viewpoint held by scientists and conservationists:
“According to PBI’s conservation director, Geoff York, ‘what we’re seeing across the Arctic as sea ice recedes is that more polar bears are spending time on shore… It is creating that perfect storm of potential for human-bear conflict’.”30David Rose. “Why all you’ve been told about these polar bears could be WRONG,” The Daily Mail.

David Rose published a piece in The Mail on Sunday titled “Exposed: How world leaders were duped into investing billions over manipulated global warming data.” In the article, Rose claimed to reveal “astonishing evidence that the organisation that is the world’s leading source of climate data rushed to publish a landmark paper that exaggerated global warming and was timed to influence the historic Paris Agreement on climate change.”32“Exposed: How world leaders were duped into investing billions over manipulated global warming data,” The Daily Mail, February 4, 2017.

As DeSmog UK reported, the Mail on Sunday was forced to publish a correction for Rose’s article after the Independent Press Standards Organisation (IPSO) ruled that the Mail on Sunday had “failed to take care over the accuracy of the article” and “had then failed to correct these significantly misleading statements.”33Matt Ridley. “Politics and science are a toxic combination,” The Times, February 6, 2017. 34“Federal scientist cooked climate change books ahead of Obama presentation, whistle blower charges,” Fox News, February 7, 2017.

David Rose writes an “exclusive” for the Mail on Sunday making a number of inflammator claims about the background to a scientific paper, published in the journal Science, which updated global temperature data to account for changes in the way ocean temperature measurements were taken.
In summary, Rose’s story claimed a “whistleblower”, retired National Oceanic and Atmsopheric Administration scientist John Bates, had revealed that the paper, led by his former superior Tom Karl, had been rushed, used flawed data and had been politically motivated. Further, the story claimed that this single paper had “strongly influenced” that climate negotiations in Paris in late 2015. Rose’s story was based heavily on a guest blog post, written by Bates, on the blog of contrarian scientist Judith Curry.
Scientists and other journalists discovered several major flaws in the story. Climate Home spoke to several UN climate negotiators, who explained the Karl paper had no influence on the Paris talks. A factcheck at Carbon Brief by Berkeley Earth climate scientist Zeke Hausfather showed how Rose had ignored other scientific articles which had confirmed the work done by Karl et al. The claim that the Karl paper was “rushed” was refuted by the editor of Science, who revealed that in fact that paper had taken longer than usual to go through peer review at the journal.

Writing at the Mail on Sunday, David Rose claims to have exposed the “‘Green Blob’ financed by a shadowy group of hugely wealthy foreign donors is driving Britain towards economically ruinous eco targets.”65David Rose. “EXPOSED: How a shadowy network funded by foreign millions is making our household energy bills soar – for a low-carbon Britain,” Mail on Sunday, October 25, 2014.

Rose then goes on to lament the supposedly small budgets of climate change denial groups like the Global Warming Policy Forum. The Global Warming Policy Forum is an extension of The Global Warming Policy Foundation (GWPF), conducting activities outside of the nonprofit Foundation’s abilities as an “educational charity.” According to Rose, the Forum “has an annual budget of £300,000 and employs just three people.”66“Who We Are,” The Global Warming Policy Forum.

David Rose authored a similar article on the Antarctic in July, 2014, again quoting Judith Curry: “We do not have a quantitative, predictive understanding of the rise in Antarctic sea ice extent,” she said. Curry also repeated the debunked myth of a 16-year global warming “pause”:71David Rose. “Global warming computer models confounded as Antarctic sea ice hits new record high with 2.1million sq km more than is usual for time of year,” The Mail on Sunday, July 5, 2014.

The Committee on Climate Change reviewed Rose’s claims, among which include the agreement between observed temperatures and model predictions, the so-called “pause” in temperature rise, and climate sensitivity. Below is a portion of their response:81Steve Smith. “Climate science remains robust despite claims in the Mail,” Committee on Climate Change, March 26, 2013. Archived December 29, 2016.

“We conclude that the approach to global and UK emissions reductions underpinning the Climate Change Act remains appropriate despite the assertions in the article. Nonetheless, as ever, it will continue to be important to monitor developments in climate science closely and draw out any policy implications.
Of the four scientists quoted in the Mail article, three (Myles Allen, James Annan and Piers Forster) have since publicly criticised it. The chart used appears to have been copied from the blog of a fifth climate scientist, Ed Hawkins, who has also taken issue with the article’s interpretation of it.
A chart of observed global temperatures against climate model outputs is the main evidence provided in the article. It claims that the chart “blows apart the scientific basis” for reducing emissions. This is simply incorrect, and reveals a misunderstanding of what the chart shows – a pattern of observed temperature over the last sixty years within the range of model outputs”82Steve Smith. “Climate science remains robust despite claims in the Mail,” Committee on Climate Change, March 26, 2013.

“EXPLODING THE MYTHS ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE”
MYTH The world is continually getting warmer.
TRUTH Official Met Office data shows no statistically significant global temperature rise since January 1997. The fact was confirmed last week by Raj Pachauri, chairman of the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Many scientists say this means forecasts of how much warmer the world will be by 2100 must be revised downwards. Pachauri disagreed: for him to be convinced, the ‘pause’ would have to last 30 years.MYTH Global warming is already causing extreme weather.
TRUTH If anything, weather has become less, not more extreme in the past 50 years. Professor Roger Pielke Jr of Colorado University – no climate sceptic – last week said that the past seven years had been the longest period ever recorded without a Category 3 or stronger hurricane hitting America, and that drought has decreased since the mid-20th Century. The IPCC admits there is no evidence that global warming has caused more storms in the tropics.MYTH If we don’t take swift, drastic action to cut CO2 emissions, the world will soon become uninhabitable
TRUTH The ‘pause’ in rising temperatures, along with new research into the decline in the sun’s output and other natural factors, is leading many scientists to lower estimates of how fast carbon dioxide warms the world. Until now, the IPCC has suggested that doubling CO2 causes a worrying increase of 3.5C, but many experts say it is about 1.7C. The computer models still say the world will be at least 2C warmer by the end of the century, but they failed to predict the pause.MYTH We’ve got to do our bit, even if it hurts. If we cut emissions, the rest of the world will follow.
TRUTH The fiasco of the 2009 UN climate conference in Copenhagen proved that China, India, Brazil and other fast-growing nations are simply not prepared to make any binding commitments to reduce their emissions. However, by cutting our own ever more deeply, all we do is increase the already rocketing price of our energy and so drive jobs abroad – while making almost no difference to world CO2 levels.MYTH The faster we cut carbon in our power generation, the more prosperous we will be.
TRUTH We face declining energy capacity, while the Government targets on 2030 emissions would mean few firms will be willing to invest in the one proven type of power source – gas – that can fill the gap relatively cheaply. Instead of ‘green growth’, we face years of impoverished stagnation, while industry flees Britain and our sky-high energy prices.MYTH The Arctic is going to be ice-free in summer in a few years.
TRUTH Although last summer saw a return to the relatively low levels of ice seen in 2007, the growth of Arctic winter ice this year is the fastest on record. Canadian archaeologists have been finding evidence the ice cover shrank to half its current extent during a warm period 7,000 years ago – but never vanished entirely.
