RSSThroughout Earth’s history, there is evidence of large carbon dioxide releases, greenhouse conditions, ocean acidification, and major changes in marine life. About 120 million years ago (mya), during the early part of the Cretaceous period, a series of massive volcanic eruptions pumped huge amounts of carbon dioxide into Earth’s atmosphere. During the Aptian Oceanic Anoxic [...]
In recent news we had that China has surpassed the USA as the worlds largest energy consumer. It’s now the “Big Boy” on the block. All the proposed CO2 “control” treaties to date have given a ‘free pass’ to the poor underdeveloped world on the theory that they needed special favors to ‘catch up’ to [...]
It is being hyped as the summit that will save the planet. But, according to critics, next week’s climate change talks in Copenhagen are more likely to cost the earth. Researchers yesterday estimated that the bill for the 12-day jamboree will top £130million – and will generate as much greenhouse gas as an entire African [...]
We all grew up believing that oil is a fossil fuel, and just about every day this ‘fact’ is mentioned in newspapers and on TV, often when quoting supposedly learned scientists who should know better. However, let us not forget what Lenin said — “A lie told often enough becomes truth.” Soon after the end [...]
Potential Dependence of Global Warming on the Residence Time (RT) in the Atmosphere of Anthropogenically Sourced Carbon Dioxide Robert H. Essenhigh Department of Mechanical Engineering, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio 43210 Energy Fuels, 2009, 23 (5), pp 2773–2784 DOI: 10.1021/ef800581r Publication Date (Web): April 1, 2009 Copyright © 2009 American Chemical Society Abstract: 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 [...]
Indian and German scientists have said that a controversial experiment has “dampened hopes” that dumping hundreds of tonnes of dissolved iron in the Southern Ocean can lessen global warming. The experiment involved “fertilising” a 300-square-kilometre (115-sqare-mile) area of ocean inside the core of an eddy — an immense rotating column of water — with six [...]
Avoiding the hothouse and the icehouse By controlling emissions of fossil fuels we may be able to greatly delay the start of the next ice age, new research from the Niels Bohr Institute at University of Copenhagen concludes. The results have been published in the scientific magazine, Geophysical Research Letters. From an Earth history perspective, [...]
High CO2 boosts plant respiration, potentially affecting climate and crops Embargoed for release: 9-Feb-2009 17:00 ET (9-Feb-2009 22:00 GMT) The leaves of soybeans grown at the elevated carbon dioxide (CO2) levels predicted for the year 2050 respire more than those grown under current atmospheric conditions, researchers report, a finding that will help fine-tune climate models [...]
