The Earth's rapid warming has pushed temperatures to their hottest level in nearly 12,000 years and within a hairbreadth of a million years, a study by the US space agency showed.

Contrary to the conventional wisdom, scientists have found that logging big dead trees after a wildfire and planting young ones makes future fires worse, at least for the first 10 or 20 years while the young trees create a volatile new source of fuel.

All quiet on the solar front, research shows People are a contrary bunch. Nothing demonstrates this more clearly than the recent fashion for dismissing global warming as a load of hot air. Indeed, it has become de rigueur to attribute recent increases in global temperatures to something other than human industrial activity and the consequent emission of various greenhouse gases, CO2 among them.â¦

I've written about weather alarmism and terrorphobia as examples of availability cascades, but there's an important distinction between these cascades. The environmentalists promoting fear of climate change sometimes use dubious tactics in exploiting images like Hurricane Katrina, but they can legitimately point to longer trends showing that the planet has warmed and is projected to [...].
