Climate Change

Introduction

Hi there,

My name is David and I am just taking my first steps into journalism and writing by contributing on this site.

I have recently graduated with a degree in Marine Biology from the University of Portsmouth and I will be commenting on subjects as large as biodiversity and climate change to more specific topics like coastal ecosystems or individual species that make the news.

I will try to post regularly and will welcome any feedback or comments that you wish to make.

32000 Scientists

32,000 leading scientists signed a petition against global warming? Is that really true? Well, no.... But to get to the bottom of this crock , we'll have to go back in history, and meet someone who really was, at one time, a leading scientist.

Climate Deniers Love the 70s

Everyone has a favorite decade, and for Climate deniers, that decade has got to be, the 70s.
Yes, the decade of disco, kung fu, and watergate

Because in the 70's, Deniers will tell you, All climate scientists believed an ice age was coming. Those crazy climate scientists! Why can't they make up their minds?

But is that really true? Maybe a little historical perspective is in order.

The Consequences of Climate Gate

In 1921, Rorschach wrote the book Psychodiagnostik, in which he set out his theory that you could explore somebody’s personality by studying their interpretations of an ambiguous set of ink-blots on a page. Had Rorschach been alive today, he wouldn’t have needed ink-blots; he could have relied on the various documents leaked from the hacking attack on the East Anglian Climate Research Unit, a set of ambiguous documents that ultimately reveal more about the person reading them than they do about climate science itself.

Climate Truthers Spend Weekend Looking at Boring E-mails

It's amazing what you can find if you have a bit of imagination, and access to somebody's personal e-mail account. Careful scrutiny of my mails, for example, could reveal many interesting things; that I cycle to work every day, that I am Belle de Jour, and that my Grandfather made up Antarctica for a bet. Much like, say, the Bible, or a tabloid headline ending in a question-mark, given a suitably ambiguous piece of text you can read from it pretty much whatever you like.
