Reflections on the refractory problems of climate and energy. July 9, 2015. Are we overestimating our global carbon budget? Research on carbon-cycle feedbacks suggests we have less wiggle room to turn the climate ship around. On July 7, 2015.). Illustration by Yarek Waszul. The latest research suggests that natural sinks of carbon on land may be slowing or even turning into sources, creating climate consequences potentially worse than first thought. A recent study in the journal Nature Geoscience. One su...

Reflections on the refractory problems of climate and energy. May 3, 2016. Jimmy Kimmel does climate change and the 97%. It’s probably obvious from the weird eyes and barely coherent ramblings that Sarah Palin’s brainwashing in Skeptical Science’s secret prison has done some permanent damage. We’re sorry. Nevertheless, she did get one of her programmed lines nearly right:. Jimmy Kimmel reads his feedback:. April 29, 2016. Posted in Soft Science. April 15, 2016. No global warming since February 2016.
