Global Warming or Climate Change

The Great Green Con no. 1: The hard proof that finally shows global warming forecasts that are costing you billions were WRONG all along Read more:  http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2294560/The-great-green-1-The-hard-proof-finally-shows-global-warming-forecasts-costing-billions-WRONG-along.html#ixzz2NnWIR9Kb Follow us:  @MailOnline on Twitter  |  DailyMail on Facebook No, the world ISN'T getting warmer (as you may have noticed). Now we reveal the official data that's making scientists suddenly change their minds about climate doom. So will eco-funded MPs stop waging a green crusade with your money? Well... what do YOU think? The Mail on Sunday today presents irrefutable evidence that official predictions of global climate warming have been catastrophically flawed. The graph on this page blows apart the ‘scientific basis’ for Britain reshaping its entire economy and spending billions in taxes and subsidies in order to cut emissions of greenhouse gases....

Study of Siberian permafrost caves shows global warming of just 1.5C 'would pump out a TRILLION tonnes of methane and CO2 U.N. studies show global temperatures have already risen by 0.7C  Huge increase in levels of CO2 could accelerate global warming  Infrastructure built on top of permafrost across the world would collapse Governments currently committed to no more than 2C climate change By  DAMIEN GAYLE PUBLISHED:  12:26 GMT, 22 February 2013  |  UPDATED:  14:59 GMT, 22 February 2013 A temperature rise of just 1.5C is likely to release vast amounts of greenhouse gas into the atmosphere from melting permafrost, new evidence suggests. In Siberia alone, the mighty thaw would liberate more than 1,000 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide and methane, experts warn. The extra levels of greenhouse gas are potentially enough to accelerate global warming. Natural ecosystems and human infrastructure would also be seriously disrupted. Frost cryst...

LOS ANGELES – In 1961, President John F. Kennedy asserted that the United States “should commit itself to achieving the goal…of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to earth,” by the end of the decade. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration accepted the challenge. From 1969 to 1972, NASA’s Apollo program achieved six manned landings on the moon – missions that expanded human knowledge, stimulated economic growth, bolstered America’s geopolitical standing at a critical time, and inspired people worldwide. Illustration by Dean Rohrer Since then, NASA has repeatedly overcome adversity in pursuit of important breakthroughs and achievements, including exploring the solar system with robotic spacecraft, peering deep into the universe with space telescopes, and building the Space Sh...

New research suggests that sounds, such as whale noises in the low-frequency sound range, by the year 2100 will be able to travel twice as far as they do now because of global warming. (Captain David Anderson's Dolphin and Whale Safari/Associated Press) Digsby IM, Email, and Social Networks in one easy to use application! http://digsby.com As oceans become more acidic, researchers predict they will carry sound as they did during the Age of the Dinosaurs. Some 110 million years ago, sound is believed to have traveled up to twice as fast through the seas as it does now. Global warming may be changing ocean sounds, taking them back to the acoustics of more than 100 million years ago when dinosaurs roamed the earth, new research suggests. Rising temperatures increase the acidity of the oceans and allow sounds near the surface to travel further than they currently do, says Rhode Island acoustician David G. Browning. He predicts that sounds, such...

By  DAVID ROSE PUBLISHED:  21:42 GMT, 13 October 2012  |  UPDATED:  13:59 GMT, 16 October 2012 The world stopped getting warmer almost 16 years ago, according to new data released last week.  The figures, which have triggered debate among climate scientists, reveal that from the beginning of 1997 until August 2012, there was no discernible rise in aggregate global temperatures. This means that the ‘plateau’ or ‘pause’ in global warming has now lasted for about the same time as the previous period when temperatures rose, 1980 to 1996. Before that, temperatures had been stable or declining for about 40 years.  global temperature changes Research: The new figures mean that the 'pause' in global warming has now lasted for about the same time as the previous period when temperatures rose, 1980 to 1996.

Climate science: A delicate balance James F. Kasting Nature 483 , 537–538 (29 March 2012) doi:10.1038/483537a Published online 28 March 2012 Earth has warmed rapidly before. About 55 million years ago, the temperature of the planet rose by as much as 8 °C over 20,000 years and remained elevated for roughly 100,000 years. The cause is unknown, but it may have been a result of cage-like methane clathrate molecules in the sea floor destabilizing and releasing into the atmosphere huge amounts of greenhouse gas. This Palaeocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum is of great interest to climatologists: the estimated temperature increase is similar to the future warming predicted owing to human activities, although we are perturbing the climate system much faster. Such events show that if you want to understand the climate's future, you need to learn about its past. The Goldilocks Planet — named after the concept that Earth, unlike its planetary neighbours, is just right for life, neither too h...
