Climate Change and the Carbon Bubble Reality Checkby Lord Stern of the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change (London School of Economics),

In recent months there has been a renewed look at the idea of a financial carbon bubble, or unburnable carbon reserves. Most recently, a report from The Carbon Tracker with a forward by Lord Stern of the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change (London School of Economics), argued that…http://alternativeenergy.com.pk/international-news/climate-change-and-the-carbon-bubble-reality-checkby-lord-stern-of-the-grantham-research-institute-on-climate-change-london-school-of-economics/ Carbon and De-carbonization, Carbon Bubble, Carbon Tracker, Climate, Energy and Economy, Energy Demand, global temperatures, Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change, London School of Economics, Renewables, Solar Power

20th Century Temperatures the Hottest in 1400 Years: New Climate Change according to a first-of-its-kind scientific study

Global average temperatures were the hottest in 1400 years in the 20th century, more specifically during the period 1971-2000, according to a first-of-its-kind scientific study. The study, conducted by a team of 78 climate researchers in 24 countries, helps break new ground in climate science…http://alternativeenergy.com.pk/environment/20th-century-temperatures-the-hottest-in-1400-years-new-climate-change-according-to-a-first-of-its-kind-scientific-study/ Climate, climate change, Environment, Global average temperatures, global temperatures, News, Risk Management

The Consequences of a Blue Arctic good algorasm plug-and-chug math regarding a critical topic

We haven’t had a good algorasm here in a while, so let’s break out our calculators and do some plug-and-chug math regarding a critical topic: the consequences of a Blue Arctic.
I define “Blue Arctic” as the Arctic Ocean being largely ice free for at least a few days. I say “largely…http://alternativeenergy.com.pk/international-news/the-consequences-of-a-blue-arctic-good-algorasm-plug-and-chug-math-regarding-a-critical-topic/ Arctic Ice, Carbon and De-carbonization, Climate, global temperatures, permafrost, Politics & Legislation, Water
