TalkClimateChange

A recent post from esteemed Red Team blogger Daryl provoked at least one colourful response, and a challenge to the level of argument that the Red Team has to offer. I have never been one to shy away from a challenge, so let’s Talk Climate Conspiracy.
The Roots.
The science of Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW) really […]

We have all heard the stories, how “Big Oil” and “Big Coal” have organized an unscrupulous posse of scientists for hire to sow the seeds of doubt across the media and the population in general. These evil corporations went so far as to place a $10,000 US bounty on any research papers discrediting the IPCC […]

Reading the mainstream news today it is easy for the layman to assume that the case for reducing Co2 emissions to combat climate change is complete. These beliefs tend to be enforced by daily stories in the world’s media blaming global warming for every natural disaster or instance of unusual weather.
The danger is that […]

2007 was a big year in Climate Change, which saw the US u-turn on climate policy (on the surface at least), the emergence of the EU and the UK as world climate leaders, continued climate record breaking as temperatures soared and the North West passage was opened up, the worldwide release of An Inconvenient Truth, […]

Amid repeated claims of climate change alarmism from climate sceptics, a new study published in Nature Geoscience claims that sea level rise this century could be double that previously predicted by the IPCC.
This news comes amid a British Government report warning that the UK needs to treat risk of flooding with the same level of […]

 
Two letters were written by two sets of credible scientists last week and addressed to the UN. One letter urged action to combat global warming by reducing Co2 emissions, and the other urged leaders to ignore the previous letter and focus on more pressing priorities instead. (see below for links and highlights)
It is clearly a […]

Your Green team enjoyed this post from DeSmogBlog which is another example of the continuous ding-dong going on between the believers and non-believers.
Some 94 skeptics published a letter in the National Post declaring that:
“[D]espite computer projections of temperature rises, there has been no net global warming since 1998. That the current temperature plateau follows a […]

Your TalkClimateChange Red team have recently been a little disappointed at the performance of many of our fellow global warming skeptics having read too many bold statements which are ill supported by evidence.
So we are pleased to be able to bring you a guest post from Matthew Sann of the Glowarming Skeptics blog which presents […]

The continued emission of large quantities of Co2 into our Earth’s atmosphere is contributing to the greenhouse effect and threatens to destroy life on this planet. Or does it?

Co2 is plant food, and carbon is the basis of all life on this planet. Having more Co2 in the atmosphere can only be a good thing which will encourage plant growth and therefore food production and everybody will live happily ever after. There is absolutely no credible scientific evidence for the greenhouse theory.

Which of the above are true?

With some irony, between 15,000 and 20,000 politicians, officials, activists and journalists will have flown this weekend to Bali, putting serious strain on the islands resources to attend the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).

All expectations are that nothing tangible will result beyond making some vague agreements over future plans. Many people will […]

Matthew Sann of the GloWarming Skeptics blog asks whether the science has been lost in the climate change debate?

Is anthropogenic climate change science (ACC), or has it been transformed into a religion? To understand this question we must first start at the beginning.

We’ve observed many different types of people arguing the toss over climate change. Here is our summary of the major personality types. Which one are you?

We are all under pressure to live green lifestyles. Our politicians tell us we should be greener, Hollywood actors tell us we should be greener, the tax man tells us, and often our conscious tells us too. Common sense suggests that with increasing population and improving lifestyles across the world we need to consider how […]

The Bali Climate Summit in early December promises to be a significant milestone in the fight against climate change and the search for a more sustainable future.But just what can we really expect from this meeting, and what will the resulting legislation or treaty frameworks really mean?
 The TeamLeaders from the TalkClimateChange forum offer their views […]
