    Was Nick Hanauer’s TED Talk on Income Inequality Too Rich for Rich People? | Business | TIME.com Their slogan is “ideas worth spreading.” But the folks at TED – the Technology Entertainment and Design nonprofit behind the TED Talks, beloved by geeks and others interested in novel new ideas –...

    Antarctic ice shelves have not been changed in a significant way

    So, just so we're all clear, the authors of this paper examined the Central part of the Antarctic continent...a region dominated by snow accumulation, though still part of the drainage. Contrary to Locust's thread title, this research doesn't at all conclude that Antarctic ice shelves have not...

    Latest Cause of Global Warming: Milk Being Poured Down Kitchen Sinks…

    Point of order, that was a poorly written press release. The greenhouse gases aren't 'created' by dumping milk down the drain. They were created by the enteric bacteria while the cows were producing the milk that eventually gets wasted. The greenhouse gases were created whether the milk was...

    Do you have a problem with this Walter that you care to discuss? I'm content that the Walter mark of disapproval. Though I would be interested to hear what you feel is wrong with the scientific conventions for displaying figures.

    Actually, the data looks fine. The problem with that graph is that the y-axis scale makes it hard to see the actual change. Eyeballing, the temperature change over that time series appears to be close to a full degree of increased temperature, which is consistent with what has happened with the...

    Death knell for AGW

    That's not true. It depends on where the research is published. Some journals' review process allows the researcher submitting their manuscript to suggest the experts who should review their paper, such as the open access journal Remote Sensing. Recently an editor resigned from that journal for...

    Death knell for AGW

    That's an easy one to knock out of the park. The atmosphere is warmer, and as a result the global average water vapour content of the atmosphere has increased by 4%, making the air heavier on average than it was before, not thinner. Climate change doesn't contribute to more home runs. Steroids...

    Death knell for AGW

    No, it wasn't partly right at all. Of course billions will die. But when he says the 'few remaining breeding pairs', he is not implying that people will simply die from old age. The implication was that climate change would leave us with a tiny portion of our current population. Interpreting a...

    Death knell for AGW

    He was alarmist, there's no question about that at all. That scenario he was pushing is highly unlikely. At least he now realizes it. Try to find any scientist actively researching climate who claims anything close to this:Before this century is over billions of us will die and the few breeding...

    I never said you were full of $hit either. I said it was a failure of IPCC quality control. That doesn't mean I'm fine with it, and it doesn't mean I think you're full of $hit. You have comprehension problems. Don't throw another hissy fit now...
