Discover what is meant by climate denial, and more importantly — what to say to a climate denier! A Serious Campaign to Undermine Public Trust in Science Climate change denial isn’t about a haphazard network of like-minded citizens who happen to disagree with certain aspects of conventional climate science. It’s about a serious campaign to undermine public trust in…

Question: Why is everyone talking about limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius instead of allowing it to reach 2 degrees? I mean, what’s the big deal? How can a half-degree rise in temperature make such a difference? How does it become an ‘extinction-level event’? Answer: It’s true, a half-degree…

Burning fossil fuels is said to be the root cause of climate change, but it’s not true. So, what’s the real driver? We’ll get to the answer in a moment. …

Rising sea levels, floods, drought and food scarcity. In recent years, an increase in temperature of 1 degree Celsius, caused by global warming, has set Australia on fire, as well as Siberia, California, Argentina and elsewhere. Other global impacts include devastating storms and floods, mass destruction of corals, and sea…

The 8 climate tipping points we could reach this century. Abrupt Collapse of Climate System The phrase “climate tipping point” describes how parts of Earth’s climate system could abruptly collapse and trigger an irreversible sequence of warming. The example most commonly used to illustrate how a climate tipping point works, is a tall tower of…

The new phrase “climate change adaptation” is used by scientists to describe actions designed to cushion the effects of global warming. It’s not about preventing or limiting climate change, it’s simply about coping with its consequences. …

Is climate the same thing as weather? Is climatology the same as meteorology? What is paleoclimatology? What exactly is climate change? Is it the same as global warming? I explain all you need to know. The state of Earth’s climate system is receiving huge attention because Earth’s temperature is rising…

What is nuclear fusion? What is needed to achieve it? It is just an expensive gamble? Fusion Energy Could Become a Reality by 2050 The big joke about nuclear fusion energy is that it’s 30 years away and always will be. But according to experts, recent advances in fusion science might actually see the first fusion power on…

What is permafrost? How does it form? Where is it found? What happens if large areas of permafrost start thawing? Does it emit nitrous oxide as well as methane? Will this cause more global warming? Permafrost: an Important Carbon Reservoir Permafrost is permanently frozen ground whose temperature stays at 0°C (32°F) or below, for at…
