An outpouring of skeptical scientists who are members of the American Chemical Society (ACS) are revolting against the group’s editor-in-chief — with some demanding he be removed — after an editorial appeared claiming “the science of anthropogenic climate change is becoming increasingly well established.”
The editorial claimed the “consensus” view was growing “increasingly difficult to challenge, [...]

Setting unattainable emissions targets is not a policy — it’s an act of wishful thinking, argues one political scientist. Instead, governments and society should focus money and attention on workable solutions for improving energy efficiency and de-carbonizing our economies.
by Roger A. Pielke, Jr.
Excerpts:
Fifty years ago, political scientist Harold Lasswell explained that some policies are all [...]
Energy company E.On used “misleading” images to try and promote a wind farm, advertising watchdogs have ruled.
The Advertising Standards Authority upheld a complaint that the material was misleading because it showed turbines that were significantly smaller than those that could be constructed.
The promotional material for E.ON’s proposed West Ancroft wind farm, just south of Berwick-upon-Tweed, [...]
You will need a brolly on holiday in the UK in August – the Met Office is issuing a revised forecast for more unsettled weather well into the month.
It is a far cry from the “barbecue summer” it predicted back in April.
The news will raise questions about the Met Office’s ability to make reliable seasonal [...]

We have studied solar variations during the Holocene (i.e. [...]
Constraints on future sea-level rise from past sea-level change
Mark Siddall, Thomas F. Stocker & Peter U. Clark
Abstract:
It is difficult to project sea-level rise in response to warming climates by the end of the century, especially because the response of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets to warming is not well understood. However, sea-level fluctuations in [...]
Once the lure of communism seduced the idealistic. Today’s environmental ideologues risk becoming just as dangerous. The Times.
A new paper has been published in the Journal of Climate by Jason Box, Lei Yang, David Bromwich, and Le-Sheng Bai entitled: ‘Greenland Ice Sheet Surface Air Temperature Variability: 1840–2007′
Journal of Climate
Volume 22, Issue 14 (July 2009)
Article: pp. 4029–4049
The Abstract states:
Meteorological station records and regional climate model output are combined to develop a continuous 168-yr [...]
