Is the effect of Carbon Dioxide on temperature logarithmic?
Warmers talk incessantly, and catastrophically, about the need to reduce greenhouse gases. If the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere rise, so does the temperature, and soon enough we will all die, they say. But what would happen if the reverse were to occur? What if we were too successful at reducing greenhouse gases? Can we actually calculate the correct amount by which to reduce, and what would happen to temperatures? Would a 1% reduction in CO2, for example, reduce temperatures by 1%.

Anthropogenic Global Warming, or just natural variation?
For the past 1.3 million years there have been 13 ice ages, average duration 90,000 years, and each followed by an interglacial period, average duration 10,000 years. During both ice ages and interglacial periods, there will be numerous briefer cycles of warming and cooling. A 65 million year review of climate and related information is [...]

Where has all the carbon gone?
Carbon is going missing. We know to a reasonable approximation how much carbon is being emitted to the atmosphere by burning fossil fuel and land use changes.

Soil emits a heap more CO2 than man
Finnish researchers have called for a revision of climate change estimates after their findings showed emissions from soil would contribute more to climate warming than previously thought.

What’s New? Harpooning whales speeds up global warming
Just when you think the believers of AGW can’t possibly come up with anything sillier they prove you wrong. Now whaling speeds up climate change!

House democrats not happy with the EPA
An article in the New York Times Friday said the EPA is overstepping their bounds with their new finding about CO2 and are attempting to do an end run around Congress. It is a blatant move that usurps Congressional powers, so blatant that even Democrats are stepping up to the plate to put an end to this.

Methane: another bad smell
It’s claimed that, as the more pernicious greenhouse gas, the threat from methane is even worse than that from CO2. It’s like knowing that zombies are coming to get you and then seeing a flock of vampires circling above.

It’s hot! It’s new! It’s not C02!
I’d say this will be the new AGW Battle Cry: The Methane Time Bomb, aka the Al Queda of Climate.

Bill Nye the Science Guy versus Weather Channel’s Joe Bastardi
Here’s a segment from The O’Reilly Factor last night where Bill Nye the Science Guy debates Joe Bastardi from the Weather Channel.
Who’s the winner?

Enough to make an Orang Utan laugh
It is estimated that production of one ton of palm oil will result in an average emission of 20 tons of CO2 from peat decomposition alone. I thought bio-fuel was carbon neutral.
