Jessica Whiteside weighs in: Volcanoes killed with global warming, 200 million years ago

When Pangaea finally broke up, some 200 million years ago, the result was a lot of heat. Specifically, volcanism, as enormous flows of basalt burst to the surface, ultimately covering more than 9 million square kilometers. It wasn't just the death of a supercontinent; it was also one of Earth's five major extinction events—and the one that paved the way for the dinosaurs.
...
All in all, it adds up to "strong direct evidence by direct superposition that the eruption of a giant flood basalt province could cause a climatic catastrophe resulting in a major mass extinction."

[For only $45 million, I'll provide the correct answer right now.]  The U.S. government is launching a $50-million effort to enable supercomputer-powered climate models to deliver regional impacts 

Why Cattle-Driven Global Warming Is A Load Of Bull

Any theorist wishing to show that animal farming makes a significant contribution to global warming must explain why the trend in global warming does not commence with the rise of industrial scale farming.

» USA Today and NASA’s Bogus Data: ‘Global Warming’ Handmaiden - Big Journalism

NASA’s temperature data is so woeful that GISS’s Reto Ruedy tells the USA Today weather editor in this email that “My recommendation to you is to continue using…Phil Jones’ data for the global mean [temperatures].” You see, “what we do is accurate enough” — left unspoken: for government work — “But we have no intention to compete with either of the other two organizations in what they do best.”

Yikes. Yes, he said that. NASA’s is worse than the ClimateGate temperature data. According to NASA.
