Global Warming?

There are fanatics, charlatans, and sci-****** on all sides of the climate issue which raises so much doubt in the laity as to randomize any impetus to find the truth and take appropriate action which might be available as a remedy if initiated in time.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist but... I wonder who would profit the most monetarily and or politically by having little or no action taken regarding climate change.

Stir the pot and keep things sufficiently chaotic such that there will be no discernible mandate to greatly change the status quo.

This wouldn't be the first time.

Meanwhile as the planet overpopulates and the rain-forests vanish we can pretend everything is OK. After all there is no consensus on this issue so apparently it isn't a big deal.

Got an inch of snow this morning but temps forecast to be in 60's for the weekend. That's a change ;) ;)

The argument that everyone is doing it doesn't wash. Only those pushing man made global warming are making up fake science, hiding their research and destroying evidence. One side of this has an agenda and it's prettty simple, They want to tell the rest of us how to live, make money and advance their standing.

The other side just wants them to go away.

Do you really want more Al Gore's in the world?

I hesitate to even enter this discussion, because I'm not going to change anyone minds, and you certainly aren't going to change mine. However, if you're talking about GLOBAL warming...then don't say because this winter is warm in North America, we're all going to die. I've read that Europe and Asia are having one of the coldest winters on record. It has to do with the jet stream, not GW!

On the first part I will say we need to agree to disagree but as to the AG thing... I'd be happier with one less not more.

Don't read this if your mind is made up and you don't want to be confused by facts.

Fish of Antarctica threatened by climate change

Now for some good news... on the solar electricity front...

Engineers create tandem polymer solar cells that set record for energy-conversion

Think clean air doesn't matter? Think Government set OK pollution levels are safe?

Even moderate air pollution can raise stroke risks

Of course you can claim anything with which you disagree is the product of sci-****** being paid to tailor their results for Daddy Bigbucks.

And now for a few comments from the Porcine Ambulator...

You're right. It confused me pretty good. How did those fish survive when the planet warmed and cooled naturally? Since this time the planet is warming is so different then the other times, we better worry about how they will adapt like they did all those other times.

It does make me wonder how hard you have to "WANT" to believe something for an stories like this to pass the smell test.

10% might be a 'record' for 'tandem polymer' or multi-layered solar cells but single layer cells have already hit the 40% efficiency level. So this really isn't _that_ big of news. It is a milestone in the development of multi-layered solar cells which have a theoretical efficiency that is higher than single layer cells.
