DetailsMichael Mann weighs in on the worrisome shifts in the great conveyor belt, and the dangerous heatwave threatening the Pacific Northwest. 115 degrees in the shade this weekend in Portland. 119 degrees ground temperature in the Arctic; 80 degrees air temperature. These are unpresented heatwaves which have the fingerprints of human activity all over it,…
DetailsNASA: Researchers have found that Earth’s energy imbalance approximately doubled during the 14-year period from 2005 to 2019. Earth’s climate is determined by a delicate balance between how much of the Sun’s radiative energy is absorbed in the atmosphere and at the surface and how much thermal infrared radiation Earth emits to space. A positive…

DetailsSpeaker Hanno Böck talks about hydrogen, and points out – to make it viable you would require more renewable electricity, also it would be expensive. He also makes the distinction between green hydrogen, and fossil hydrogen – how it is produced, with green hydrogen making up only a small fraction today. Hydrogen is a crucial…
Details12-month global temperature should reach minimum near +1.1C in late 2021. Maximum at next El Nino is likely to be near +1.5C due to rising CO 2 , CH 4 , N 2 O, solar irradiance and Earth’s energy imbalance.
DetailsClimate scientist Stefan Rahmstorf speaks on climate tipping points.
DetailsThis visualization shows that as land temperatures have increased since 1950, hotter days have become more common and colder days have become less common. When the bell curve becomes shorter, one can see more data trending toward the right, revealing hotter days. This visualization shows how the distribution of land temperature anomalies has varied over…
DetailsMichael Holmes (CNN), interviews climate scientist Michael Mann about the G-7 talks currently underway. #ClimateChange at the #G7 -financing for countries to leap frog fossil fuels is a start says @MichaelEMann but more needs to happen. “The #ParisAccords was a foot in the door but we have to reduce carbon emissions far more…if we are…
