Green Energy Tips That Can Make A Difference!
You do not have to buy electric car to make this happen! Use a solar water heat system to lower water and heating costs. Using electricity or gas to heat water is not terribly efficient, but water heaters that use solar power maintain water temperatures using only the sun’s rays by way of solar panels. […]
In a First, Scientists Map Particle-Laden Rivers in the Sky
In Brief: Windy regions high in the atmosphere can transport pollutants like dust or soot thousands of miles around the world and disrupt everyday life for thousands of people. Last summer, “Godzilla” came for the Caribbean and the U.S. Gulf Coast. This particular monster wasn’t of the sci-fi variety, but a massive dust storm kicked […]

Physics Prof. Concludes CO2 Climate Effect Is ‘Fairly Negligible’ – Adds Just 0.5°C For A Doubling To 760 ppm
A new CO2 climate sensitivity study suggests that, beyond the 300 ppm threshold, “any further increase of (anthropogenic) CO2 cannot lead to an appreciably stronger absorption of radiation, and consequently cannot affect the earth’s climate.” Dr. Schildknecht is a Bielefeld University physics professor affiliated with the Max Planck Institute in Munich. His equilibrium climate sensitivity […]
Biden’s climate mantra? ‘Jobs, jobs, jobs.’
When President Joe Biden thinks about climate change, he thinks jobs. And that’s exactly what he told the American people in his first speech to a joint session of Congress last night. “For too long, we failed to use the most important word when it comes to meeting the climate crisis,” Biden said. “Jobs, jobs, […]

New High Resolution Climate Simulation Projects Antarctic Ice To Remain Stable Rest Of The Century
Now we know why prominent activists, like Barack Obama, purchased expensive seaside homes even after warning the seas are “rising rapidly”. It turns out they really aren’t, a new University of Utrecht study shows. And like many climate alarmists, Potsdam Institute climate researcher Stefan Rahmstorf predicted the oceans could very well rise by an alarming […]
Republicans’ climate credibility hit by make-believe ‘war on burgers’ claim
Unfounded claims do not reflect president’s proposals to tackle global heating, which make no mention of meat consumption At a major summit hosted by Joe Biden last week, a procession of world leaders fretted over the spiraling dangers of the climate crisis, with some pledging further cuts to planet-heating emissions, others touting their embrace of […]
