CLIMATE UNCERTAINTY AND RISK

Judith Curry is a leading climate scientist who once subscribed to the main tenets of global warming but subsequently changed her mind. That alone makes her new book, Climate Uncertainty and Risk, exceptional. The following link to a review of her book explains why it is well worth reading.

  1. Let me take you in a slightly different direction than Judith Curry as the authority on climate change. Called observations.

    Temperature records are getting blown away for the last several months. This will be the warmest year ever and not by a little. Remember the list of temperature trends I showed you a few posts back. A simple tool available to everyone on the internet showing acceleration of warming on earth. Its all due to humans. As you pointed out last centruy early on. warming is barely detectable in the early 1900s, and yet the last 30 years of warming is the highest warming trend on the list. We have clearly accelerated in spite of the climate doubters.
