Image credit: Friends of the Earth UK While some see it as the only viable way to curb our carbon emissions, and there is evidence that the EU’s carbon trading scheme has helped reduce emissions , the fact that the global carbon market has grown to over $136 billion has some people worried. Very worried. Given the ongoing fall out from the latest financial crisis, and the

Posted in this story is a very interesting PDF available for download here for a 1975 U.S. Patent issued to Donald K. Werle, Romas Kasparas, Sidney Katz, assigned through the U.S. Navy, that describes a dispersion method for a “powder contrail.” As other researchers have also pointed out, the Powder Contrail Generation patent document could be a useful clue into the true agenda and purpose of the “chemtrail” phenomenon, which is clearly tied to almost a century of man-made weather manipulation. Already, it is admitted that the government has experimented with geo-engineering, which is says would help reflect heat and combat phony global warming / climate change. It also references 5 other patents that deal with aviation fuel dispersants that go back to the 1920s. It further references the “chaff” application, as to create a radar jamming reflective screen, and other potential applications, including the use of numerous other powder formulas. • March 1, 1927 Patent #1619183 by Bradner and Olgesby for the Process of Producing Smoke Clouds from Moving Aircraft • June 30, 1936 Patent# 2045865 by Glen H.

From the announcement that all new UK homes would be zero carbon by 2016 , through the big reveal of the first zero carbon home in the country , to the launch of a more commercially viable prototype for a zero carbon home , there has long been both buzz and confusion surrounding Britain’s future housing plans. Last year, Lloyd explained that the

All photos supplied by Brooks The 1880’s were, arguably, the bicycle’s golden era. From that time we derived the so-called ‘Safety Bicycle’, where, unlike the ‘Penny Farthing,’ riders could reach the ground with their feet. The same period also saw the introduction of the chain drive, pneumatic bike tyres, and the first Brooks leather bicycle saddle (or seat.) With almost 150 years of leather craftsmanship, Brooks, continue to innovate, recently launching a line of vegetable tanned, organic leather bicycle saddles. Inspired not so much by a need to be ‘green,’ but by cyclist’s requests for even higher … Read the full story on TreeHugger

The troposphere, the lower part of the atmosphere closest to the Earth, is warming and this warming is broadly consistent with both theoretical expectations and climate models, according to a new scientific study that reviews the history of understanding of temperature changes and their causes in this key atmospheric layer. Scientists at NOAA, the NOAA-funded Cooperative Institute for Climate and Satellites (CICS), the United Kingdom Met Office, and the University of Reading in the United Kingdom contributed to the paper, “Tropospheric Temperature Trends: History of an Ongoing Controversy,” a review of four decades of data and scientific papers to be published today by Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews – Climate Change, a peer-reviewed journal. The paper documents how, since the development of the very first climate models in the early 1960s, the troposphere has been projected to warm along with the Earth’s surface because of the increasing amounts of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This expectation has not significantly changed even with major advances in climate models and is in accord with our basic physical understanding of atmospheric processes. In the 1990s, observations did not show the troposphere, particularly in the tropics, to be warming, even though surface temperatures were rapidly warming. This lack of tropospheric warming was used by some to question both the reality of the surface warming trend and the reliability of climate models as tools. This new paper extensively reviews the relevant scientific analyses — 195 cited papers, model results and atmospheric data sets — and finds that there is no longer evidence for a fundamental discrepancy and that the troposphere is warming. “Looking at observed changes in tropospheric temperature and climate model expectations over time, the current evidence indicates that no fundamental discrepancy exists, after accounting for uncertainties in both the models and observations,” said Peter Thorne, a senior scientist with CICS in Asheville, N.C., and a senior researcher at North Carolina State University. CICS is a consortium jointly led by the University of Maryland and North Carolina State University. cont. added by: JanforGore
