• Chinas emissions from coal increase despite economic downturn

  
  Climate Change: The Next Generation — Authority: 439
  Emissions increase despite financial crisis ScienceDaily , November 22, 2009 — A new study from Norwegian and New Zealand scientists provides updated numbers for CO 2 emissions from fossil fuels. While the global financial crisis may have slowed down the emission growth, it has not been sufficient to stop it: ...

• CRU’s Phil Jones: “Maybe because I’m in my 50s, but the language used in the forecasts seems a bit over the top re the cold.”

  
  Watts Up With That? — Authority: 778
  The Powerline blog has done an excellent job of summarizing the issues surrounding the Climatgate/CRUtape Letters in the past couple of days. Since they reference WUWT in the most recent article, it seems relevant to also post here. It seems Dr. Jones frets about the “weather, not climate” issue that we have been ...

• Geo-Engineering the Earth: Mad Science for a Mad Planet (scary because it can be done)

  
  Trends Updates — Authority: 571
  Geologists prefer to call the past two centuries as ‘the anthropocene period, a time when humans have reshaped about half of the Earth’s surface. We have dictated what plants grow and where. We’ve pocked and deformed the Earth’s crust with mines and wells, and we’ve commandeered a huge fraction of its ...

• Climate studies to benefit from 12 years of satellite aerosol data

  
  International Space Fellowship — Authority: 604
  Aerosols, very small particles suspended in the air, play an important role in the global climate balance and in regulating climate change. They are one of the greatest sources of uncertainty in climate change models. ESA’s GlobAerosol project has been making the most of European satellite capabilities to monitor ...

• Is global warming a hoax?

  
  Is It Getting Warmer? — Authority: 110
  Doug Craig over at Redding.com recently published an article covering the abbreviated history of research regarding greenhouse gases and the history of our scientific understanding of them. He naturally skipped those researchers and scientists that discuss the cooling affect of aerosols. Mr. Craig’s article is ...

• Interactions with Aerosols Boost Warming Potential of Some Gases

  
  The X-Journals — Authority: 143
  Certain gases that cause warming are so closely linked with the production of aerosols that the emissions of one type of pollutant can indirectly affect the quantity of the other. And for two key gases that cause warming, these so-called "gas-aerosol interactions" can amplify their impact.
