The thirteenth tipping point.

An opposing view to the Stern Report. It’s authored by Bjorn Lomborg, who’s no stranger to controversy.
We’ve got 10 years to avoid dangerous climate changes. At the moment, it’s not looking too great...
Thought-provoking article from the BBC’s John Humprys on global warming, his parents, and the paradoxes in trying to be green.
Placing a wind turbine on your roof will make a great fashion statement to your neighbours but won’t help much in reducing your emissions. On the other hand, the less sexy option of insulation will have a much stronger effect.

Interesting summary of the current dangers of biofuel use as well as future, more sustainable, directions the industry might take.
The 26 most common climate myths and misconceptions.
Nuclear power plants requires massive amounts of cool water and, in the face of global warming, they could be vulnerable.
Incompetence is everywhere, so I guess it’s no surprise that it’s present in the carbon monitoring processes supposed to help in fighting climate change.
Catastrophic Warming: Is It Too Late?
California is pioneering what could be the next battleground against global warming: filing suit to hold cities and counties accountable for greenhouse gas emissions caused by poorly planned suburban sprawl.
The only way to survive may now be extraction of greenhouse gases from the air.
