The Sun has hit a 100-year low in sunspot activity, a 50-year low in solar wind pressure and a 55-year low in radio emissions. Who predicted this would happen? A couple of papers spring to mind: Fairbridge, R. W. and Shirley, J. H. (1987): Prolonged minima and the 179-year cycle of the solar inertial motion. [...]
New Scientist, also known as Nude Socialist magazine, never misses the opportunity to use the derogatory phrase ‘climate-change deniers’ in order to smear sound scientific argument against an unverifiable computer modelled catastrophe driven by harmless aerial plant food gas. The latest opportunity has arisen courtesy of a new paper in Science magazine by Trouet el [...]
A new explanation for the cause of changes in the chemical makeup of the oceans through recent Earth history is put forward in a paper published in Nature (26th March, 2009). Scientists from the Universities of Southampton and Bristol suggest that adjustments in ocean chemistry through recent geological time are driven by variations in the [...]
A study by the University of Leeds, published in the science journal Nature, measured the girth of 70,000 trees across 10 African countries and compared them with similar records made four decades ago.On average, the trees were getting bigger faster and researchers found that each hectare of African forest was trapping an extra 0.6 tons [...]
As summer comes to an end in the Southern Hemisphere, we have ‘exciting’ news that an ice bridge has ruptured in Western Antarctica. More evidence of ‘global warming’ or more evidence of how the West Antarctic has behaved over the past 14 million years? ANTARCTICA: Freeze-Dried Findings Support a Tale of Two Ancient Climates A [...]
London is less vulnerable to rising sea levels caused by global warming than experts realised, according to a new analysis. Experts at the Environment Agency said the Thames Barrier will protect the city for decades longer than engineers thought, with a six-year study revealing that the barrier’s original designs overestimated the threat from climate change. [...]
The US must balance science with what is politically and technologically achievable on climate change, America’s lead negotiator has said. Speaking at UN talks in Bonn, Jonathan Pershing said the US must not offer more than it could deliver by 2020. Poor countries said the latest science showed rich states should cut emissions by 40% [...]
Peter Lilley [LilleyP@parliament.uk] You may be interested in the attached letter to the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate change about the astonishing revisions to his estimates of the costs and benefits of the Climate Change Act. LETTER TO SECRETARY OF STATE FOR ENERGY AND CLIMATE CHANGE Dear Secretary of State You recently slipped [...]
