Sometimes, covering climate science feels like playing a neverending game of whack-a-mole, since the same dubious arguments — often put forward by the same people — pop up again and again, only to be repeatedly debunked. Today is no different. Over at the Washington Post’s Capital Weather Gang blog, I have a column responding to a press release issued late last week marking the 33rd year of temperature data from the lower atmosphere, as detected by satellites. The release, from John Christy and Roy Spencer at the University of Alabama at Huntsville, made several claims that were misleading at best, including the…

As an opening statement from a current venue by The Geological Society in London, geologists have warned about the consequences of our current high-level greenhouse gas emissions. According to them, if we keep on pumping greenhouse gases into the air as we are doing now, the earth will need no less than 100.000 years to recover from global warming. By studying rock sediments, scientists have been able to assess the link between greenhouse gas increase and temperature change on our planet. According to professor Jim Zachos, a gigantic volcanic eruption that occurred about 55 million years ago released close to…
