POPS"Seven New Wonders of the World" (full at source): Honey, we're shrinking the species Bigger is so 20th century. Ecologists say global warming will shrink species, as bigger creatures will have more problems losing heat. And conservationists say we need to plan now if we are going to save large species from extinction.

POPSBetting With A Climate Scientist ~ An Open Challenge to David Barber
I am concerned about climate exaggerations and the effect they have on public policy makers. It seems quite clear that David Barber was off the mark when he predicted that “this year that the North Pole may be free of ice for the first time,” because neither the Arctic Ocean, the Arctic Basin nor the North Pole were ice free this past summer. David Barger is a smart guy and evidently an expert in his field. Taking on a wager with an amateur like me should be like shooting fish in a barrel. I look forward to reaching an agreement soon. In the post at Climate Sanity it is pointed out that based on the facts it is almost impossible for the Arctic to be ice free anytime soon. Plus that it is hardly a new ocurrence despite the rantings of David Barber. American Nuclear subs have been photogrpahed at the North Pole in ice free water in 1959 and 1962. http://climatesanity.wordpress.com/2008/12/10/arctic-sea-ice-gone-by-2015-a-challenge-to-david-barber/

POPSPolar Bears are Starving What is the future for Arctic sea ice? Some scientists believe that in just five years, the Arctic may be ice-free during the summer. No-one can say either whether it is a trend that will continue to worsen, or a natural cycle that will eventually be reversed.

POPSThe Methane Time Bomb As pessimistic/cynical as I am, I really didn't want us to get to this point. Perhaps it won't reach the critical point, but I'm not holding my breath.

POPSAlaska's anti environmentalism could sink Florida Open water now stretches all the way round the Arctic, making it possible for the first time in human history to circumnavigate the North Pole… the most important geographical landmark to date to signal the unexpectedly rapid progress of global warming. The resulting opening of Arctic sea lanes will affect American foreign and energy policy for years, implying that the economy in Alaska will boom while Florida sinks.

POPSArtic sea ice drops to 2nd lowest level on record I'm not easy to convince. A claim has to have proof - there has to be evidence, there has to be numbers, and it has to make sense. After lots of reading, lots of listening, lots of thinking, I now can say that I know global warming is real and potentially devastating. I honestly don't get why some people don't see that. I know that that most of the people that don't believe aren't stupid or evil. PLEASE stop, take another look, and reconsider the possibility that global warming is happening now and that there will be grave consequences that we need to understand. Some of us on the other side have done that for years. What if you are wrong? You should at least be able to answer that question - I can.
