Requiem for a crowded planet
IPCC, 2007. This is what the failure of the climate talks means.
The last time global negotiations collapsed like this was in Doha in 2001. After the trade talks fell apart, the World Trade Organisation (WTO) assured the delegates that there was nothing to fear: they would move to Mexico, where a deal would be done. The negotiations ran into the sand of the Mexican

So what about the Himalayan glaciers?
You've probably seen in the press that an error has been found buried in an IPCC text. Tags: climate change ipcc denier It said the Himalayan glaciers would disappear by 2035 and it turns out that the statement has no scientific backing. The denial industry has gone into paroxysms of rage/joy, but the claim wasn't even featured in the document summary.

Climate Action: What Will it Take to Avert Disastrous Climate Change?
The 2007 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) projections used baseline scenarios from the 1990s, when scientists and government leaders assumed that by now, popular and political support would have led us to reduce greenhouse gas emissions [ 4 ]. percent a year since 2000, faster than the worst-case scenario predicted by the Nobel Prize-winning IPCC [ 4 ]. by Sarah van Gelder, Madeline Ostrander, Doug Pibel 2005 was one of the busiest Atlantic hurricane seasons on record: 15 hurricanes formed, and four reached Category 5 status. Photo by Peeter Viisimaa . For nearly any major disaster—natural, economic, or military—there was a moment when tragedy could have been prevented. In just the last decade, experts warned that a subprime mortgage bubble could lead to financial collapse and that a hurricane could devastate

Meat the Press
Today the Observer led on the chair of the UN's IPCC telling us that we should eat less meat to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (meat is reckoned to be responsible for about 20% of manmade sources of ghgs). Tags: meat news ipcc foo I still find it funny (peculiar and a little haha) that when someone in a lofty position something that everyone has known for over a decade, it can still make the headlines.

A brief history of climate change
Although not established with climate change in mind, it has had a greater impact on greenhouse gas emissions than the Kyoto Protocol. 1988 - Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) formed to collate and assess evidence on climate change. 1989 - UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher - possessor of a chemistry degree - warns in a speech to the UN that "We are seeing a vast increase in the amount of carbon dioxide reaching the atmosphere... She calls for a global treaty on climate change. 1989 - carbon emissions from fossil fuel burning and industry reach six billion tonnes

Musings on the "Environmental Debate"
The first, written by two scientists, criticised how the IPCC handled some data but stated clearly that this did not prove that climate change was not man made (Booker omitted to mention that statement). Tags: climate change ipcc christopher booke There's so much utter rubbish talked about in relation to "the environment" it makes me want to scream. Why when there is almost total unanimity in the scientific community about, say, climate change, is there a debate going on at all?

Climate Change, Wildlife, and Wildlands Toolkit
This original version contained four case studies in four regions, a ten minute video, an educational wheel card, trail cards, classroom activities, and other hands-on materials and was based on science from the late 1990s and early 2000-2001. In 2007 EPA determined that the kit needed to be revised to provide materials grounded in the most recently available climate science reports (IPCC 2007, CCSP, and recent research by federal agencies) and impacts to wildlife and their habitats in specific eco-regions of the U.S. On behalf of all the agencies involved in the creation

UK Climatic Research Unit’s e-mails hacked
quot; Obviously he is not going to admit, at least not as yet, whether the information is genuine for there will be some heavy “damage control” put in operation and in the end, and one could bet one's life on that, I am nigh on certain, they will claim that the information distributed on certain, primarily Russian websites, is falsified and not genuine. Researchers at CRU, one of the world's leading research bodies on natural and human-induced climate change, played a key role in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report, which is considered to be the
