Time for a multi-billion dollar federal program to crush all of our compact cars in favor of Hummers?: CO2 may help provide desperately-needed rain for dry Southern Africa

Ancient urine offers clues to current climate change

Today’s climate models are inaccurate as far as southern Africa is concerned, says Professor Brian Chase. Two years ago, Chase received a European Research Council grant for his research on vegetation and climate. The scholarship enabled him to make revolutionary discoveries about the climate based on fossilised badger urine from Southern Africa.

“Today’s climate models predict that it will become drier but this is not the case where Southern Africa is concerned. Based on the finds it seems logical to predict the climate will become wetter as it gets warmer.”

“There ought to be cliff badgers everywhere. They provide the best archive material. The quality and variety of information they provide is really quite incredible,” says Chase.  “To confirm the information collected so far, we plan to continue the research in all areas in Southern Africa that are affected by drought.”
