Cloud Study Claims Unsuspected Positive Feedback | The Resilient Earth
Modelers continue to tune their software playthings to match the last century's ups and downs, all the while ignoring the fact that their models are wrong. It was recently reported that all the aerosol models have been significantly wrong for decades (see Warming Caused by Soot, Not CO2). If this new result proves to be global, another important climate regulating factor has been wrongly implemented in most every model in use. Still we are told that that model results are valid, not to worry that the model's fundamental assumptions are incorrect. As I have been trying to communicate through this blog, the new discoveries being made day by day are not, in and of themselves, a repudiation of global warming. Instead, they are indications that climate change theory is fundamentally incomplete and so flawed that its predictions cannot be trusted.
20,000 Gallons of Renewable Fuel Per Acre: Joule Biotechnology Lifts Veil on Direct CO2 to Fuel Process : TreeHugger
After two-years of below-the-radar work Joule has just announced they're ready to show off (if not exactly reveal) their process for using "propriety product specific organisms" that through photosynthesis can convert CO2 directly into either ethanol or a variety of hydrocarbon-based chemicals -- "solar diesel", a renewable fuel chemically identical to petroleum-based diesel, being one.
...
Sims says that producing fuel using their process can theoretically yield up to 20,000 gallons of fuel per acre annually -- yes, a huge figure -- requiring no crop land nor fresh water to do so.
Temperature directly proportional to lifespan in cold-blooded animals
Washington, July 28 - ANI: Warmer temperatures make cold-blooded organisms like fish, amphibians, crustaceans, and lizards live longer at higher latitudes than at lower latitudes, according to a study.
Rich countries told to boost aid spending to get deal on climate [hoax]
Wealthy countries should spend more on poor nations to prove their good faith in upcoming climate talks, according to a draft European Union report. This comes as negotiations appear to be deadlocked over costs.
...
"The big flows of money after Copenhagen, should be on top of that 0.7 percent," Oxfam climate campaigner Tim Gore told the Reuters news agency. "We must not divert funds that would otherwise be spent on schools and hospitals."
