The global warming conference where skeptics think they're winning debate

Mashable: For two days this week, there is a place in Washington where down is up, and up is down. A place where the globe isnt warming due to manmade emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, but where evil government-funded scientists are cooking the books to obtain more research grants. It's a gathering where fossil fuels aren't something to be phased out, as G7 leaders decided to do this week, but rather something to be expanded in order to fight poverty. This is the morally correct...

Sorry, skeptics: Global warming may not be so great for plant life after all

Washington Post: Climate change is already a heavily charged issue, fraught with political tension. But complicating the mix are a slew of misconceptions about exactly how it will affect the planet and its inhabitants. One confusion involves plant growth. Some skeptics have argued that rising carbon dioxide levels could actually benefit agriculture, and in fact, research shows that rising temperatures and more carbon dioxide can be a boon to plants -- up to a point. But thats not the whole story, according to...

Much-touted global warming pause never happened

Science: What if the missing heat has been there all along? In 2013, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) flagged an odd phenomenon: Atmospheric temperature data collected over the past few decades suggested that global warming had slowed down beginning around 1998. Global warming skeptics crowed, and scientists delved into the global climate system to find out where the missing heat had gone. But a new analysis suggests that the real culprits are the data themselves. When better corrections...

Science challenges claim that global warming took a hiatus
2015-06-05 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
National Geographic: A reported pause in global warming-a mystery that has vexed scientists and delighted contrarians-was an illusion based on inadequate data, U.S. government researchers reported Thursday. The findings by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) researchers that there was no warming "hiatus" over the past 15 years could reshape consensus science on recent climate change. The research undercuts an argument of pundits and politicians who oppose taking action. In the new report, NOAA's...
