Freak weather in Madeira is "caused by climate change". But do people really know what this means? Global warming has become a conversational gambit, like cricket or house prices. Feeling burned over a cause for concern (Herald Sun) I'VE proved it often: The Age won't tell the full facts on global warming. Now its own reporters admit they were forced to be biased.

While George Bush attempts to distract the U.S. from doing anything substantive on climate change, an interesting thing is happening in Europe -- the price of carbon emission permits [EUAs] has hit a ten-month high. The reason: high oil and gas prices. The EU ETS is dominated by power utilities, which must hold EUA permits for every ton of carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted when burning fuel to generate power. Most fossil fuel generators burn either coal or gas. When the price of gas rises, it mak The Deniers? The World Renowned Scientist Who Got Al Gore Started "My own personal belief is that we should wait another 10 or 20 years to really be convinced that the greenhouse effect is going to be important for human beings, in both positive and negative ways."

Imagine for a moment you're an upscale realtor in the exclusive southeastern part of France called "Provence" driving around with a couple of well-healed prospective buyers hoping to see gorgeous vistas on a sunny, April day only to get caught in a snow storm. What would you do? Well, the manager of a British real estate company called VEF, whose office is in Haute Provence, was so angered by this that he wrote a complaint letter to the General Manager of Global Warming in Europe (uncontrollabl Bush revises strategy on curbing greenhouse gases (Baltimore Sun) President Bush today called for a halt in the growth of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions by 2025 and urged other major polluting nations to develop national goals to address climate change.

This is a joke, right? According an anonymous White House official, President Bush is urging a halt to CO2 emission growth by 2025. Notwithstanding the facts that a) halting emissions increase by 2025 won't do the job, and b) he's waited until he's got nine months left in office to propose anything on global warming, this is one of the funniest articles I've read all year. I mean, how on earth could the reporter write this line, "The official also confirmed that Bush would not detail specific Cheetahs, pumas and jaguars of Europe Cheetahs, pumas and jaguars of Europe (April 16th, 2008) Found on Tretrapod Zoology, a series of articles about prehistoric felines among which one can find big cats like lions, pumas, jaguars, cougars, cheetahs or leopards on continents where they totally disappeared later.

An Ice Age brought on by global warming was the scenario depicted in the movie THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW. While the science on which the movie based has been called into question, there may be some merit in the theory that global warming could cause an Ice Age. Why is Europe's climate comparitively milder than other places at the same latitude? Alaska and Greenland, both the same distance to the North Pole as Europe, are covered with ice and permafrost while most of Europe is not. The ocea Peak Oil news – Russian production declines with an irony alert Russian oil production declined, for the first quarter of this year, for the first time in a year.

The environmentalists are ruining the world. Global warming hysteria has promoted bio fuels and food is being converted to fuel as a result. Moreover, the new fashion of eating so called "bio foods" in Europe (foods produced without fertilizer or pesticide - another aspect of environmentalism) has lead to lower yields and scarcity of foods.

The world’s oldest recorded tree is a 9,550 year old spruce in the Dalarna province of Sweden. The spruce tree has shown to be a tenacious survivor that has endured by growing between erect trees and smaller bushes in pace with the dramatic climate changes over time. For many years the spruce tree has been regarded as a relative newcomer in the Swedish mountain region. “Our results have shown the complete opposite, that the spruce is one of the oldest known trees in the mountain range,” says Global Warming:Experts’ Opinions vs Scientific Forecasts Sept. 18, 1924 MacMillan Reports Signs of New Ice Age March 27, 1933 America in Longest Warm Spell Since 1776 May 21, 1974 Scientists Ponder Why World’s Climate Is Changing: A Major Cooling Widely Considered to be Inevitable

As Hunger Rises, Chew on This The prices of the world’s three main grains — corn, rice and wheat — more than doubled last year. The causes include poor harvests linked to climate change, diversion of cropland to biofuels, population increases, rising meat consumption, emerging diseases and soaring fuel prices.

Across the world a crisis is unfolding at alarming speed. Climate change, China's increasing consumption and the dash for biofuels are causing food shortages and rocketing prices - sparking riots in cities from the Caribbean to the Far East. Biofuels: a blueprint for the future? Our cars and other forms of transport are the third-largest source of carbon dioxide emissions in the UK and the only one likely to have increased by 2020. Any serious attempt to tackle climate change requires us to dramatically step up our efforts to reduce these emissions.

President George W. Bush Wednesday called for growth in US greenhouse gas emissions to be capped by 2025 but was attacked for his grossly deficient strategy against climate change. Reason for NWA Departure is Simple, But Not That Simple. Now that the NWA/Delta merger appears to be real and the leaders of the two companies are talking about their plans, I've been waiting for one of them to tell us how Minnesota's taxes drove the headquarters down to Atlanta. Not a peep from Steenland or Anderson, but that has been the local line here for awhile among a certain set, as exemplified by this pair of comments from Winston Smith: I hope lawmakers also realize that most of the head office stuff will go to Atlanta. They have a better bu

There are a few men out there who have never had the misfortune of watching competitive ice skating. This first part is for them. There is a move all skaters do during a spin. They bring their arms in close to their bodies and lo! and behold, the rate of spin increases. There is an explanation in physics having to do with angular momentum and center of mass, and a formula here. Perhaps that formula doesn't completely explain it. It's true though. I don't skate much but I did a similar thing once Five Lost Cities Of The Future With the advent of climate change, droughts and rising sea levels, Environmental Graffiti takes a look at which American cities the archaelogists and anthropologists might be looking at in a few hundred years.
