The ALCAIDE’S CAFE

  
   
“Where has all the heat gone?” is what a couple of scientists asked as they published their research in Science, the official journal of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAA). Since access to Scienceis limited to members, I took this quote from the report in the online publication PhysicsWorld. You need no […]

“Mass Loss from Alaskan Glaciers Overestimated? Previous Melt Contributed a Third Less to Sea-Level Rise Than Estimated.”

What you suppose that […]

 
 
Though the science community has suffered numerous hits for fraudulent studies and data and prejudicing the case by conspiracies to exclude research and publications that contradict the “consensus position that warming is a fact”, and that humans are largely to blame; and though the UN report is being rescinded for editing and corrections and reworking […]

So what do polar bears in the Arctic and glaciers atop the Himalayas have in common? Well, for one thing, both are “poster children” for “global warming”. Both, we are told, are disappearing before our very eyes because of our wicked ways, by our profligate fossil fuel fueling of our lives and economy. Our fossil […]

If you have followed this blog, recently, or in it’s first 4 year incarnation, you know I’ve been a huge skeptic … no, make that “opponent”, of the great global climate warming theory … no, make that “scam”. I will, in fact, try to get the time to transfer/resurrect more of my past writings on that […]

 
I’m absolutely amazed by all the apocalyptic predictions that countless species will perish as the climates warm up. What happened to adaptation and evolutionary processes? We know that micro-climates and macro-climates are always changing. Always have.
The tribes of Indians living in the temperate paradise of our American Southwest, building the magnificent cliff dwellings were driven […]

Ice Sheet Behavior Much More Volatile And Dynamic Than Previously Thought, Tahiti Corals Show (ScienceDaily, Apr. 30, 2009)
— Fossilised corals from tropical Tahiti show that the behaviour of ice sheets is much more volatile and dynamic than previously thought, a team led by Oxford University scientists has found.
Analysis of the corals suggests that ice sheets […]

One of the conversations I overheard the other night was about a company in Israel that’s growing, out of “regular plants” - trees and stuff, furniture and houses and various whatnots…
