New York Times: While in East Hampton, N.Y., to discuss America`s energy choices and issues related to the current gas-drilling blitz at a screening of the anti-fracking manifesto "Gasland, Part II," I couldn`t help noticing something that illustrates the mismatch between attitudes and actions on energy in this country: In a stroll down Main Street on a 90-degree day, door after door was wide open, meaning that air conditioners were, in essence, straining to cool the planet. (Physics says this doesn`t work.)...

Mongabay: After a colder-than-average spring, Alaska is suffering a sudden and record-breaking heatwave. Temperatures on Monday, June 17th hit a stunning 96 degrees Fahrenheit (35 degrees Celsius) in Talkeetna, Alaska, just below the state's highest temperature ever record of 98 degrees Fahrenheit in 1969. On the same day, NASA's Terra Satellite's Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) took a rare image of a cloud-free Alaska. "Other towns in southern [besides Talkeetna] Alaska set all-time...
By Degrees: What to Make of a Climate-Change Plateau
2013-06-10 23:28:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
New York Times: As unlikely as this may sound, we have lucked out in recent years when it comes to global warming.

And that lull in warming has occurred even as greenhouse gases have accumulated in the atmosphere at a record pace. The slowdown is a bit of a mystery to climate scientists. True, the basic theory that predicts a warming of the planet in response to human emissions does not...
