Global warming is 'twice as bad as previously thought'

Precisely and just so. We know we are contributing, and some studies show a somwhat ill-boading correlation between the mean globe temperature and the start of our industrial age..either way, we should, according to history, probably be in an ice age now..but even between ice ages, the...

What's the prettiest country?

I thought Australia would be pretty pretty. It wasn't very much so, at least not where (when) I was. Mostly just hot, dry, and yellow :P I thought Iceland would be mighty pertty. It really wasn't, I mean, rocks, rocks, rocks, rocks, rocks, 1 bush, rocks, rocks, moss? Mist? Cool capital...

Report: Global warming approaching critical point

And, believe it or not Chickenman, but some do it out of conviction and passion. And if Chricton says Global Warming is a myth then..I'd like to see him stare down an ice-core sample ;)

Report: Global warming approaching critical point

Irwin: Where does it it isn't so already? This isn't fringe science, sheesh. The IPCC is all about 'fringe science', right? Seriously, you can't find many environmental scientists claiming global warming is a myth anymore. Get your head out of the tar-pit. Or better yet, go stay in some...

Report: Global warming approaching critical point

Do you know that we should really be in one now? What do you know of the ice ages, both the 'big' and the 'small' ones? Who said centuries? We already feel the effects today..and according to most models, we are looking att pretty bad scenarios in 50-100 years..how far, statistically, between...

European Union Democracy

Of course the EU can be exited. Not very easily, but for the country desperate enough.. The U.S and the EU are both..diversity coiled together. They are both experiments.

Report: Global warming approaching critical point

Why would it be silly? We can predict rain or shine 10 days out pretty accurately nowadays, comparatively speaking, and the ways of predicting the weather 50-100 years from now are somewhat different. From what we can tell, the the temperature has not risen as fast as it has recently. Ice...

Report: Global warming approaching critical point

Sigh. If there as as bang-head-against-wall smiley I'd include it in this post. I would be prepared to listen to any arguments against humans affecting global warming in bad way, if you actually had any. Michael Crichton isn't the environmental scientist I'd listen the most keenly to(he is...

'Potentially bad climate change', perhaps. Still, the temperature is an average for the globe.

huygens probe landing this morning

Macbaine: How would that happen? It is built by the ESA. NASA has cosntructed a few of the instruments on it, however. Why would the ESA buy something and then practically call it European? Now? It defies logic. " Radio telescopes on Earth confirm that the European Space Agency's...

In pictures: War in Chechnya

1. The Chechnyan people want independence, they have wanted that ever since the Russians first came and tried to put them under Mother Russia's heel. 2. Annihilating a people through a brutal military power is not going to stop the terrorists. You can answer 'you can't reason with a madman'...
