What to do with Bjorn Lomborg?
By James Hrynyshyn, The Island of Doubt Bjorn Lomborg, the ex-Greenpeace bad-boy of statistics, is back at it. In last week’s National Post, Canada’s right-wing embarrassment of a newspaper, he once again takes on climate change activists. The problem with Lomborg, a man trained to play with numbers but seemingly devoid any understanding of how to understand what those numbers really mean (recall The Skeptical Environmentalist, his widely discredited attempt to argue that things...
James Inhofe: The Senator for Suspect Science
Check out this great post  on DeSmogBlog debunking Inhofe’s list of “hundreds” of “scientists” denying anthropogenic climate change.

Did the IPCC lower its sea-level predictions?
Since the IPCC released its latest Summary for Policy Makers, there has been a lot of hype made about the fact that the IPCC has lowered its predicted range of sea-level rise due to anthropogenic climate change.

When looked at more closely,...
The Biofuel Illusion
I’ve always been opposed to the use of various crops for producing biofuels. While they sound good on the surface, when you look at them more closely it is easy to see that they entail more drawbacks than benefits. First of all these biofuels are not effective energy sources because they require nearly as much energy to produce as they end-up containing (same goes for hydrogen by the way). Various studies show that ethanol...

Our Grandchildren Are Counting on US
Al Gore, undoubtedly the top spokeperson for the science o Global Warming, testified in front of Congress today. A few idiot like Inhofe tried to silence him but overall Gore got his message across. You can see his opening statements here. He also made a passionate plea to do something in the name of future genarations.
