Jet Stream Changes due to Global Warming?

In an article that just screams northern-hemispheric superiority, MSNBC has touched only briefly upon new research from scientists at the Carnegie Institute.
According to Cristina Archer and Ken Caldeira of the Carnegie Institution’s Department of Global Ecology, Earth’s jet streams are shifting; possibly as a result of global warming. However they are upfront with the fact […]


Expert about Faces on Global Warming

Continued from the shortened article at PlanetSave.com
Kerry Emanuel is an American professor of meteorology currently working at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston, and in 2006 was named one of Time’s 100 Influential People of that year. Much of his fame has come from being among the first to link global warming to an […]


Top NASA Scientist: “We’ve reached a Crisis”

Yesterday we saw that past Nobel chemistry winner Mario J. Molina come out and publically warn against the dangers of climate change. Today, NASA’s top climate scientist has come out to warn the same thing.
You’d think there was something wrong.
“We’ve already reached the dangerous level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere,” James Hansen, 67, director […]


Lamenting La Niña

Originally published here at Green Options (.com).
 The current conditions Australia, my birthplace and home, are facing at the moment do not make it one of the “Greatest Living Condition” contenders of the world. Various levels of water restrictions ranging from level 3 to 5 make life very difficult. However, that is nothing compared to […]


Continual Unfounded, Random and Childish Attacks Keep Coming

There is something within many environmentalists that gets irked off very easily. I know for a fact that I wouldn’t be able to get away with telling you that I’m not easily angered. Most of those who know me would be up in arms, consternation and hysterics. All of that being said, when we are […]


California Fires and Climate Change: A Match Made in Hell

My latest article which has just gone live over at GO addresses the Californian Wildfires (or to us Aussies, bushfires…) and the how and why behind them. I want to explain something though. Something that needs to be said!

We’re all screwed

It’s going to take until 2049 until the ozone shield reverts back to the happier pre-1980 levels. According to the NASA Ozone Hole Watch and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) though, this year the hole is already making an appearance.

g8 climate compromise

Looks like the heads at the G8 summit have reached a compromise on a climate deal, to hopefully bring emissions down soon. But from where I’m sitting, reading through the BBC article, it looks like nothing more than hot air, and an attempt to bring the US in to the spotlight as ‘the good guys’. […]


george-bloody-bush!

I am ashamed to say that I was once a supporter of George Bush. Granted, being an Australian, it meant very little that I was a supporter of the big-W, but being an Australian also meant we had the ass-kissin John Howard who seemed to be more in love with Bush than his own wife. […]


linkage

Well, I don’t have too much to say today… the OotP clip has kind of taken my breath away. Add to that working on my new website for the past couple of hours, and Rachel sleeping in my bed (we’re going to the Dawn Service tomorrow… I think I’ve already said this… nm!), I’m stuck […]


awareness is worth a moment of your time…

Thought I’d take a moment to plug two organisations that I am 100% behind. I’m not gonna say much, except that it is time the people of this world, even my generation, need to start to pick up the responsibility of this planet. We’re sadly, not so slowly, screwing this planet royally. People and resources are […]
