Beckwith is Back – Abrupt Climate System Update

Originally posted on Paul Beckwith, Climate System Scientist:
I am back, after a long video hiatus. I have been chomping at the bit to film, but held off to essentially finish this website.  Like many projects that start out small, they can become nonlinear like the climate.  My web/coach/guru/Yoda in this project was the wonderful…

The Wit and Wisdom of Brian–an occasional series

I have a friend (shocking, it’s true) named Brian Kenny. Brian is an accomplished artist and sculptor. He was profiled in the New York Times and in Art News, and his work has been exhibited numerous times since the 1990’s. A couple years ago when I was doing the Sex & Politics radio show, he came on […]

Boom! New York AG Subpoenas Exxon #ExxonKnew

From Climate Denial Crock of the Week. A round-up of the news that has followed the Inside Climate report on Exxon suppressing the science on Global Warming that its own researchers had discovered. There was a real danger that the story (released almost two months ago) would be ignored and would go away. I don’t […]

The Story of Falling Don–performance November 7

Coming to a theater near you (assuming you live on the Upper West Side)! My play THE STORY OF FALLING DON will be performed at OSA (Our Saviour’s Atonement) Lutheran Church on SATURDAY, November 7, beginning at 7 PM. You might wish to get there at 6 to see the closing night of the OSA’s […]

“Director’s Cut” of New Video is Tougher, Darker

Peter Sinclair of Climate Crock of the Week has put out a new video on the fight over climate change denial. It’s worth a few minutes of your time. Especially noteworthy is the juxtaposition of denialists like Alex Jones and Rush Limbaugh with Angus Gillespie, VP of C02 from Shell Oil who states that “you […]

Social Security in the cross-hairs for both parties

It’s that time once again to have the GOP threaten to shut down the government. We’ve run up against the debt ceiling and now need to have the ceiling moved up (something that used to pass without much notice during the W years). But the ‘Freedom Caucus’ is in charge and they’re anxious to risk […]

Words of wisdom from Dr. Malcolm Light

I had posted a few news items by Dr. Malcolm Light here before. If you’ve been following this blog, you know that he has predicted disaster unfolding at the beginning of this month. Specifically, he posted this on his Facebook page: So in honor of Dr. Light (and in order to familiarize some of my readers […]

More Mike Mann: “It’s Worse than we Thought..”

Dr. Michael E. Mann was vilified and nearly driven out of his job for talking about our converging environmental and crises as all graphing like the line of a hockey stick. He was dragged into the ‘climategate‘ controversy and personally targeted by Sen James ‘climate change is a hoax’ Inhofe. His reputation was nearly destroyed, […]

my 10.03.2015 prediction: the clock is ticking

In June, I made a prediction about October 3 of this year. Actually, I didn’t make the prediction, someone named Malcolm Light did and I posted it here. The prediction was that October 3 was going to be the last day when humans could do anything to prevent runaway global warming and (by extension) mass extinction. […]

Ejection of ALL fuel from TEPCO Reactor 2

Reblogging this because it’s reinforcement of some earlier articles I had posted about Japan. More proof that (thanks to Fukushima) there’s enough radiation in the atmosphere to make our survival of climate collapse an afterthought. There’s a graphic that I’m adding here (also from Tekknorg) that applies. Thanks to Tekknorg for keeping on the story.
