Among the latest front, yet another (strong) piece of evidence of the cascading impacts of climate change on eco-systems around the world and the global eco-system’s ability to sustain modern human civilization, scientists have laid out how Lake Tanganyika is heating at an unprecedented rate (at least of 1500 years of scientific analysis) and that […]

This guest post from Patriot News Daily Clearinghouse turns a critical eye toward Senator Feinstein’s efforts to rewrite long-standing California water policy.  It then turns to some great links re climate and environmental issues. The only benefit to Sen. Feinstein’s new measure to unilaterally rewrite California water policy might be to galvanize enough Democrats to […]

Prominent elements Republican Party and associated anti-science syndrome sufferers are gleefully (and ignorantly) making jokes about the Washington, DC, area’s record snow levels, using this to confuse people about the realities of Global Warming. The reality of Global Warming is that “warmth” isn’t what all of us will feel with each moment, after all that […]

Evidently, Osama bin Laden has released his second message in as many weeks. And, this time, bin Laden’s 12th century lens turns, reportedly, to a real 21st century challenge.

Not the excited notes from a sports fan (shared her same sentiments at that one), but off-hand comments about major policy issues that suggest potentially recklessly shallow understanding of critical issues. After the House voted to […]

To many in the climate ‘blogosphere’, myself not excepted, the siren’s call of tackling global warming denial, of deceitful astroturf “studies” distorting the situation, and of shoddy ‘faux and balanced’ reporting in the nation’s newspapers of record can eat up too much of our attention.
