Scientists Cite Uncertainty, Error, Model Deficiencies To Affirm A Non-Detectable Human Climate Influence

By Kenneth Richard Observational uncertainty, errors, biases, and estimation discrepancies in longwave radiation may be 100 times larger than the entire accumulated influence of CO2 increases over 10 years. This effectively rules out clear detection of a potential human influence on climate. The anthropogenic global warming (AGW) hypothesis rides on the fundamental assumption that perturbations

“In a worst-case scenario higher CO2 still increases yield with 2.8%”

CO2 plays a major part in the production of glasshouse crops. Carbon (the C in CO2) is the second most abundant element that makes up a tomato plant. (Water makes up 80% of the plant, carbon makes up half of the remaining 20%). Most of that carbon is taken up by the plant via the

Living-in-the-moment mentality and climate crisis concerns

By Charles Battig, M.D. One seemingly irresistible charm of modern technology is that it makes so many things instantly available. Why irresistible? Because it resonates with the inner infant child who has never fully matured, yearns to “have it now,” and throws a temper tantrum if denied the latest want. Delayed gratification is so irritating.

A Warming Climate Enhances Bird Reproduction in Finland

Paper Reviewed Meller, K., Piha, M., Vähätalo, A.V. and Lehikoinen, A. 2018. A positive relationship between spring temperature and productivity in 20 songbird species in the boreal zone. Oecologia 186: 883-893. Predictions of CO2-induced global warming have led to concerns that certain animal species will experience population declines if temperatures warm. In this regard, birds

CO2 Levels Are NOT What’s Threatening Venice…Sea Levels Were Meters Higher With Much Lower CO2

By Kenneth Richard Paleoclimate evidence shows there is little to no link between atmospheric CO2 concentration and relative sea level. Venice, the treasure of Italy, is a city built on a mud swamp. Consequently, in the last 100 years it has sunk about 25 cm, or 2.5 millimeters per year (Munaretto et al., 2012). The

A Bay Area startup is working to make ‘air meat’ using protein-producing microbes discovered by NASA

By Aria Bendix A Bay Area startup is producing an alternative meat by relying on on a class of microbes that convert carbon dioxide into protein the same way plants do. The microbes produce a powder than could replace soy or pea protein in plant-based meat products. The conversion process was discovered by NASA

Some aquatic plants depend on the landscape for photosynthesis

Runoff from soils and surrounding environments provide life-sustaining carbon All plants need carbon dioxide, or CO2 to live. They extract it from the air and use it during the photosynthesis process to feed themselves. But what happens to aquatic plants? How do they get carbon dioxide? Some have partial terrestrial forms, such as floating leaves
