A group of scientists has now plunged into one of the habitats where so-called climate change skeptics have prospered -- the blogosphere. (insidescience.org)
Nearly all climate scientists agree that Earth's climate is rapidly warming, that humans are causing it and that if nothing is done, climate change could have catastrophic consequences in the coming decades. (insidescience.org)
Jeffrey Harvey, an ecologist at the Netherlands Institute of Ecology in Wageningen, assembled a team of climate scientists, communications experts and biologists to study how climate change-doubting blogs influenced this gap between the perceptions of scientists and the public. (insidescience.org)
Writers on many blogs that reject the scientific consensus on climate change, however, promote divergent views on polar bears. (insidescience.org)
These blogs' authors often extend their arguments to question the overall influence of humans on climate change, and label those who say polar bears are threatened as alarmists. (insidescience.org)
To examine how blogs handled the scientific evidence for human-made global warming when discussing polar bears' long-term prospects, the research team, which included several polar bear experts, analyzed 90 blogs -- 45 of which endorse the scientific consensus on climate change and 45 of which do not. (insidescience.org)
The blogs that accepted the climate change consensus clustered in the same part of the graph as the vast majority of the peer-reviewed papers, which are evaluated by other scholars before publication. (insidescience.org)
Most climate-doubting blogs ignore or selectively cite the scientific literature on climate change and polar bears, Harvey and his co-authors found. (insidescience.org)

Australia has a shocking record of climate change inaction coupled with an unenviable position as a world leader in annual per capita greenhouse gas (GHG) pollution. (bellaciao.org)
After much prevarication the neocon Australian Labor Government has proposed a comprehensively disastrous and counterproductive Carbon-Tax-ETS-Ignore Agriculture (CTETSIA) plan for "tackling climate change" but which in reality will couple effective climate change inaction with crippling of carbon-intensive industries such as the steel industry. (bellaciao.org)
Thus in the debate over action on man-made climate change only 50% of Australians believe in what an overwhelming international scientists regard as a major, Planet-threatening reality. (bellaciao.org)

Climate Future: Averting and Adapting to Climate Change," by MIT Sloan economist Robert S. Pindyck explains what we know and don't know about climate change, and what we can do to prepare for a possible climate catastrophe. (mit.edu)
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Jan. 17, 2023-A new book by an economist at MIT Sloan School of Management argues that despite efforts to reduce emissions worldwide, severe climate change is likely inevitable in the not-too-distant future and we must invest now in strategies and technologies to help us adapt to rising temperatures and sea levels. (mit.edu)
He says federal, state, and local governments need to invest in adaptations to counter current and future fallout from climate change. (mit.edu)
The extent of climate change and its impact on the economy and society are much more uncertain than most people think," he writes. (mit.edu)
In Climate Future: Averting and Adapting to Climate Change , Pindyck argues that despite our best efforts, there's "a strong likelihood" global mean temperature over the next 50 years will increase 3 degrees Celsius or more due to the rapid growth of emissions from China, India, and other developing countries.

Among climate change activists, solutions usually center on a transition to renewable energy. (resilience.org)

Countercurrent chromatography (CCC, also counter-current chromatography) is a form of liquid-liquid chromatography that uses a liquid stationary phase that is held in place by inertia of the molecules composing the stationary phase accelerating toward the center of a centrifuge due to centripetal force and is used to separate, identify, and quantify the chemical components of a mixture.

Pool3
The aim of this study was to monitor seasonal changes in stable isotopes of pool freshwater and harp seal ( Phoca groenlandica ) body water, and to study whether these potential seasonal changes might bias results obtained using the doubly labelled water (DLW) method when measuring energy expenditure in animals with access to freshwater. (biologists.com)
Seasonal changes in the background levels of deuterium and oxygen-18 in the body water of four captive harp seals and in the freshwater pool in which they were kept were measured over a time period of 1 year. (biologists.com)
The seals were offered daily amounts of capelin and kept under a seasonal photoperiod of 69°N. Large seasonal variations of deuterium and oxygen-18 in the pool water were measured, and the isotope abundance in the body water showed similar seasonal changes to the pool water. (biologists.com)
