Methane–from Planet Phuckett!!
As some might remember, my play PLANET PHUCKETT!! was web-cast last month. I wasn’t completely happy with the results (who KNEW making films was so hard???) and I’ve started a project to re-do it. This is a segment of the original video and it explains why methane is a threat of extinction in the near […]
MIA (missing in action)
My volume of blogging has fallen off a cliff in the last two months. A couple of reasons Several reasons for this– First, I’ve become enamored of the Quora website, where I serve up saucy, special commentary on dumb questions posed by users. It’s easier than coming up with original content here, and (frankly) it’s seen […]
“I feel a great disturbance in the Force”–2017 so far
I’ve never tried to predict things on the eve of a new year. This is not some bit of humility on my part. It’s because I’ve been perennially depressed by the whole Xmas season and I have no ambition by the time New Years’ rolls into sight. This year is no exception. Plans to get away […]
2 C temp increase is already here
When I was younger (which could be any time in the recent past, actually), I was posting here that world temperatures had already increased due to warming by a number of around .85 c (or 1.5 F). That number was based on a lecture I viewed on Youtube by my go-to expert on such matters. […]
Blocked by Huffpo–UPDATE
UPDATE: DANGER WILL ROBINSON! I’m pleased to announce that Huffington Post finally put this article on their website. Huzzah! You can find it here. Background: I have this FB friend named Angie Cordeiro. She has what has been called an ‘eclectic’ background–studying (and writing about) everything from human nutrition, early childhood development, religion, natural and holistic […]
Extinction goes mainstream? UPDATED
Some news regarding climate and predictions. The above cover was a wake-up call for me–I started blogging about ‘doomer porn’ almost three years ago. It has been a pretty lonely business being a Cassandra. But Utne Reader is a fairly mainstream print-media outlet–a few steps ahead of most lefty places, perhaps, but not out in […]
October 11 methane plume and dire predictions
Regarding the Malcolm Light prediction I reported about October 3 (if you haven’t read it, it’s here, with an update here). The above series of diagrams (and many more that are relevant to the October 11 date) was just released by the Arctic News Group. Long story short; the above rendering shows a tiny dot where temperatures […]
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 […]
The Dead Zone–parsing out the past year
This is (per WordPress math) my 400th blog posting. I started my blog in 2012 when the memes of Occupy Wall Street were not getting traction in Main Stream media. I also was working on touring a number of my plays–I was writing about protest and revolution and income inequality. Lots of gigs, very little money. […]
10.03.2015: Does Earth have an expiration date?
One of the confounding realities of global warming theory has been that nobody with the requisite knowledge of the science really wants to put a date on when an ‘Extinction’ event will occur. As I noted in an earlier post, there is even a great reluctance about using the E word–even when all the evidence points […]
