The really inconvenient truth: real price of our energy

A different take"Economics and business have a notoriously short-sighted, narrow-minded set of considerations. Haven?t we just re-learned that ancient lesson from the hedge funder corruption and the phoney mortgage miasma?"What lesson did you learn? Did these markets fail or did government intervention in market operations corrupted them? Why are tax...

Global dimming and climate change

There's now a summary of the current research findings on global dimming. That is essentially the measurement of the amount of solar radiationthat reaches the earth's surfacer at a given point. Highly relevant to weather, climate, temperatures. The findings are published in a special edition of the Journal...

Geo-engineering: further discussion

Here's one Euro-mag that contrasts the "quick fix" approach of geo-engineering vs. humans actually changing our heavy use of fossil fuels. Think of this approach as: "I won't stop drinking so where's the hangover cure?" Here's one report that sees the Royal Society report I blogged as...a call...

Colbert heats up global warming

Too funnySo, 350ppm means certain environmental disaster? And we're already above that? Hmmm...Back to the drawing board...I really REALLY resent the Chicken Littles running around screaming their heads off, and I'm gradually getting the feeling that, even if originally well-intentioned, they can't see the forest for the trees.What...

"Meat has a carbon footprint?" This blogger must be ignorant!

One talkback on my locavore blog says; "Meat has a carbon footprint? I guess all the carbon in that cow comes from pixie dust, eh? Or maybe we drill oil out of the ground and grow cows out of it." Wow! Carbon footprint is a tough concept, I see....

A bit of global warming data to accept or dismiss as is your wont

So, If the previous high markwas 1998, not 2008, what happened to the temperature from 1999 to 2008?dismissntSo?Where I live it can be minus 40 celsius in the winter. Warmer weather is a good thing.

Ford says its greening paint, regardless of the paint's color

Bathing the earth in acid?

Bathing the earth in acid?Did you just say "global warming"?I thought that was out of fashion these days - the enviro-screamers having had to face the ugly facts of it being non-existant, and therefore opting for the words "climate change".And what's up now? "oceanic acid stomach"?Is there no end to...

Bathing the earth in acid?

The head of NOAA says global warming has an evil twin. It's a variety of oceanic acid stomach. The chemistry is pretty straight forward for those who managed first-year chemistry in high school. CO2 + H20 = H2CO3. That would be carbonic acid, not the...

Solar cycles, weather and climateThere we go...That's all I really wanted to see... some alternatives to the hyped/politicized CO2 warming theory.

Carbon Wars in the U.S. Senate

The Waxman-Markey bill passed the House by seven votes. It will be mucher closer than that if and when the 100-member U.S. Senate votes on their version of this bill. Every carbon-conscious lobbyists and arm-twister in D.C. is already at work. Today the man with the bully...

Renewable energy is only a patch--MSFT research head

Stop the release of CO2 says Craig Mundie. Any way and every way. Doesn't Craig understand that it's always about making a profit and you do that by selling more energy, even renewable...not by cutting down on CO2. That's generally a costly public service like clean water...
