POPSStorm Subsides Between William Gray, CSU The dean of CSU's College of Engineering, which oversees atmospheric sciences, said she spoke with Gray about terminating media support for his forecasts solely because of the strain it placed on the college's lone media staffer. "It really has nothing to do with his stand on global warming," said the dean, Sandra Woods. "He's a great faculty member."

POPSAnthropogenic Global Warming Critic loses funding Now an emeritus professor, Gray declined to comment on the university's possible termination of promotional support. But a memo he wrote last year, after CSU officials informed him that media relations would no longer promote his forecasts after 2008, reveals his views: "This is obviously a flimsy excuse and seems to me to be a cover for the Department's capitulation to the desires of some (in their own interest) who want to reign (sic) in my global warming and global warming-hurricane criticisms," Gray wrote to Dick Johnson, head of CSU's Department of Atmospheric Sciences, and others.

POPSNo climate skeptics in Texas? Andrew Dessler teaches an atmospheric sciences class at Texas A&M. He contacted the global warming skeptics at demanddebate.com to ask them if they knew of any Texas-based experts who would be willing to come to his class to present the skeptical view. demanddebate.com could not find anyone. Dessler also talks East Texas Baptist University's attempt to have a debate between the Texas State Climatologist and a TX-based global warming skeptic. They couldn't find an expert in geology or climatology who disputed global warming in Texas, and had to fly in a guy from Virginia.

POPSCO2 emissions up 35% since 1990. Nature is able to soak up less, while we increase production. A compound effect, some would describe as logarithmic. The CO2 equivalent of Moor's Law. I was wondering how fires such as those in California, which have been the result of drought, not only make a significant contribution to atmospheric CO2 that would otherwise have been 'fixed,' but are a sign of similar events to come

POPSFishing CEO shares net wealth $11-million donation to University of Victoria intended to discover the truth about environmental change Dismissing religion, politics and business as channels for environmental truth, Mr. Wright decided to give some of his "extra dollars in a jam jar" to the University of Victoria, which has produced many graduates that work at his company. Of the donation, which is the largest cash gift the university has ever received, $10-million will go toward the new Oceans, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences building, with the remaining $1-million for student scholarships.

POPSCarbon emissions havesped up since 2000 Greenhouse or not, consider the waste. We are turning to smoke something that has millions of practical uses as an ingredient. Energy of any source can be converted into fuel if we develop the appropriate conversion medium, but we're happy to use one that was prepared earlier, rather than learn to cook ourselves. Imagine someone with a fridge full of food starving, because they have run out of microwave dinners.

POPSForemost expert in climatology debunks "global warming" hysteria This guy says the global warming hysteria is nonsense: Reid A. Bryson holds the 30th PhD in Meteorology granted in the history of American education. Emeritus Professor and founding chairman of the University of Wisconsin Department of Meteorology—now the Department of Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences—in the 1970s he became the first director of what’s now the UW’s Gaylord Nelson Institute of Environmental Studies. He’s a member of the United Nations Global 500 Roll of Honor—created, the U.N. says, to recognize “outstanding achievements in the protection and improvement of the environment.” He has authored five books and more than 230 other publications and was identified by the British Institute of Geographers as the most frequently cited climatologist in the world.
