=====Peer-reviewed climate papers by climate skeptics===== | |||
[https://skepticalscience.com/peerreviewedskeptics.php database was compiled by Dr James Powell] | |||
This resource shows how many peer-reviewed papers have climate skeptics published that deny or cast doubt on human caused global warming. The database was compiled by Dr James Powell (geologist, author of The Inquisition of Climate Science). Only primary articles found via the Web of Science were included. More details are given here. | |||
===== | ===== The men behind rise of CSIRO’s climate modelling program ===== | ||
[https://cosmosmagazine.com/earth/climate/behind-the-rise-of-csiros-climate-model/ by Dr Ian Smith 21/6/25 cosmos] | |||
Meteorologist and historian Dr Ian Smith, writing in “Historical Records of Australian Science,” pays tribute to two men who developed the first long term climate model in Australia which indicated the impacts of enhanced emissions in the atmosphere. Here, for Cosmos, Smith summarises the process of model development and explains the global impact of this research. | |||
Despite Trump-Musk Feud, CO2 Milestone Is the 'Important News of the Day' | |||
[https://www.commondreams.org/news/carbon-dioxide-record by Olivia Rosane 6/6/25 Common dreams] | |||
The concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere peaked above 430 parts per million in 2025—the highest it has been in millions of years—according to data released by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California, San Diego on Thursday. | |||
===== Why climate is an everyday story – but media coverage still spikes around special environment days and UN summits ===== | |||
[https://theconversation.com/why-climate-is-an-everyday-story-but-media-coverage-still-spikes-around-special-environment-days-and-un-summits-256286 by Sanam Mahoozi 6/04/25 The Conversation] | |||
Climate change is already happening. But 36% of the world’s population still disputes the realities of its origins and impacts. When the science is clear but public understanding lags, more lives and livelihoods are put at risk. | |||
===== Welcome To the Anthropocene - The Age Of Human Die-offs ===== | |||

The world today is on the verge of a major food emergency, provoked in part by Russia’s attack on Ukraine but more broadly by the damage heat from global warming is doing to crops worldwide. This is both a crisis and an opportunity. | |||
===== What is a carbon footprint? ===== | |||
[https://www.nature.org/en-us/get-involved/how-to-help/carbon-footprint-calculator/#:~:text=Globally%2C%20the%20average%20carbon%20footprint,tons%20doesn't%20happen%20overnight! by The Nature Conservancy 2025] | |||
. Globally, the average carbon footprint is closer to 4 tons. To have the best chance of avoiding a 2℃ rise in global temperatures, the average global carbon footprint per year needs to drop to under 2 tons by 2050. Lowering individual carbon footprints from 16 tons to 2 tons doesn’t happen overnight! | |||
