Today the UTM permanent weather station reached its final height of over 10 meters (about 35 ft.). Here are some photos of the progress so far. Below is the first photo I took today, after we had assembled the bottom two sections of the tower.  The third section of tower lies beside it and the [...]

If you’ve been looking for some good sites for climate change information, here is a list to get you started.  If you’re on an iPhone, there’s now an app that can help, too. Skeptical Science – List of skeptics’ main arguments and the science in support and against. How to talk to a climate skeptic [...]

A recent article in the BBC News claims that Global Warming has stopped in recent years.  In fact, they claim, that there has been no warming over the last 11 years.  Meanwhile, CO2 emissions continue to rise, and climate scientists steadily posit that the climate continues to warm due to greenhouse gas emissions.  So what’s the truth? [...]

Today, a new post on Realclimate.org debunks yet another pseudoscientist claiming to have found the cure to all of our global warming blues. Read the article here. Of all the blogs I read, my favorite and most trusted (and also voted top Science Blog of 2005) is RealClimate.org. One role that they have played in the recent [...]

A new study by Halevy et al. published in the Journal of Geophysical Research (Vol. 114, D18112, doi:10.1029/2009JD011915, 2009) uses radiative transfer theory to demonstrate that higher levels of CO2 and other greenhouse gasses in the early Earth and Martian atmospheres limited the amount of infrared radiation that is able to escape the planets’ atmospheres. It’s [...]

For the tiny portion of the global population that still thinks that Global Warming is a hoax that Al Gore and some liberal scientists are proposing to make a few bucks, I swallow back some harsh words and will try to patiently offer some data for you to peruse. (I will try not to compare [...]

Glaciers are responding to climate change in ways that we have expected for decades. The only difference is the speed. Around the world, glaciers are retreating at rates that are unprecedented, and previously deemed impossible. Thanks to some amazing time-lapse photography and an incredibly talented group of scientists, photographers, a large dose of ingenuity, and their [...]

Updated 22-Apr-10. I frequently give talks on climate change and am often asked to share my presentation. Here is a recent one for download and use. If you use it, please let me know. Choose the appropriate format and spread the word about global climate change. The talks are really intended for me to present, so [...]

When I first began studying global warming in 1995 I was extremely optimistic; we knew the science, the cause, the consequences, and the solutions, and it seemed as though a movement to stop the accelerating warming trend was building momentum. Then began a well-roganized campaign of misinformation spread through US media. Interestingly, at the time [...]

The models predict that this level of CO2 will produce what some call a “roasted world”There are many people that worry that we are passed a tipping point in climate, and that no matter what we do, we can no longer change the course that we are on. The bad news is that this is [...]
