What happened to the innovation and ingenuity to turn a problem into a profit?

I’m sure there will be more than a few people at Paris looking to profit from our problems.

Right, especially governments (and politicians), because everyone wants to hear that they may have to pay more for energy to solve a problem that doesn’t really exist. It’s such a winning message.

vp, “Berkeley does an excellent job of improving our understanding of how to model clouds and other hydrological issues, some of which bear on your chill factor for oceans. Lots of new insights there.”

I have skimmed a few of those, but I have mainly looked at GFDL papers. Since I tend to enjoy the ocean paleo more than most I have focused more on convective trigger temperatures and issues with different SST proxies. Tropical Mg/Ca and corals reconstructions definitely indicate ~400 years of warming and high latitude tree ring reconstructions definitely indicate red herrings. Boreholes agree with the tropical oceans which should be pretty convincing.

New York harbor froze solid during one winter of the revolutionary war. That winter that was even worse than the one spent at Valley Forge. I kinda doubt those late 1700s were quite as warm as today.

PA,

A couple of things, one the corn In the US is sold as a commodity, first come with the cash gets it.
Second, the point was that those in the Middle East were not buying it then and they aren’t buying it now.
Third, those who own the ground should be able to do with that land what they want, typically central US land where corn is grown, is where the farmer can make the most money growing corn, so they grow corn. Fourth, doubling the cost of corn, doesn’t double the cost of food, the cost of the corn is only a small part of the food price.

Actually, its the farmer’s I don’t give a rat’s ass about, but the middle east is way more complicated than “The unrest in the Middle East in the last half decade is due to biofuels.”

Even if we were a bunch of left wing liberal do-gooders, I doubt that Assad would have let us feed all the people in Syria when the drought hit and their crops failed.

Lift the poor out of poverty through cheap E=mc2 energy, then provide them with the benefits of education and the world’s population will automatically drop and stabilise.

The two E’s; Energy and Education. Nothing more is needed.

nickels, Jane Jacob’s in ‘Cities and the Wealth
of Nations’ argues that cities and not national
economics are the appropriate way to measure
economic growth that flows from import replacing
cities to their close regions. She Includes studies
of the development of stimulus cities, such as
Venice, London, Tokyo and the negative impacts
of large currencies.

The drought was not unprecedented but the size of their population was. Up from 4 million in 1960 to some 22 million now.

I understand that more than half the cost of the synfuel produced is due to the cost of producing hydrogen by hydrolysis. High temperature nuclear reactors can produce hydrogen at very much lower cost than by hydrolysis. I understand the cost of the synfuel could potentially be more halved if the hydrogen is produced by high temperature nuclear reactors.

If NOAA is innocent, there is nothing for them to fear – just hand over the documents and answser the questions – all will be well.

dramatically shows terraces under water not yet eroded like the hills.

This a 3% cumulative growth curve with a switch from 60% to 40% at 100.

Now because there is ocean noise, the fact it is a gradual shift etc. etc. on the real data you have justified treating the “bend” as noise. That isn’t a bump, that is a point of inflection.

Has real climate forgotten to renew their domain?

It all seems extremely partisan from both sides to me.

Is the Smith request founded on genuine scintific interest or just mischief making ? Is the response reasonable and measured?

I dunno

I see the spokesman for the union of concerned scientists in the letter is michael halpern who has a degree in Sociology and communications so not sure he is a good authority on climate science matters.

Is he a brother to Joshua halpern our very own Eli Rabbett?
