By Zeke Hausfather A new paper published in the Journal of Climate reveals that the lower part of the earth’s atmosphere has warmed much faster since 1979 than scientists relying on satellite data had previously thought. Researchers from Remote Sensing Systems (RSS), based in California, have released a substantially revised version of their lower tropospheric […]
Stephen Hawking repeated his warning that humanity needs to leave Earth and colonize the moon, Mars or other planets in order for our species to survive the impending doom of climate change. “We have given our planet the disastrous gift of climate change … When we we have reached similar crises there has usually been […]
Dozens of scientists on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Board of Scientific Counselors and board subcommittees have been informed that they will not be renewed for their roles advising the agency, the Washington Post reported. The move, which would dismiss 38 of the 49 remaining subcommittee members, “effectively wipes out [the board] and leaves […]
By Carey Gillam In a well-orchestrated and highly coordinated media coup, Monsanto Co. and friends this week dropped a bombshell on opponents who are seeking to prove that the company’s beloved Roundup herbicide causes cancer.

The turquoise swirls of the Black Sea’s phytoplankton bloom can be seen all the way from space in a new image released by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA‘s Aqua satellite. “The May ramp-up in reflectivity in the Black Sea, with peak brightness in June, seems consistent with results from other years,” said […]
By Andy Rowell Oh the irony. A scientific expedition examining the effects of climate change has been cancelled because of … climate change. The scientific research effort is being led by world leading Arctic specialist, David Barber from the University of Manitoba, who is joined by 40 scientists from five other universities from across Canada. […]
More than one dozen U.S. cities have banded together to post deleted climate change information and research from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) website that was notoriously scrubbed by the Trump administration.
