		<description>"It’s unbelievable that, compared with the cyclical nature of our heat source, people can believe that variations in trace gasses are a major factor in the planet’s temperature."

It's unbelievable that you would assert this without measuring the variation of this cyclical nature of our heat source:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Solar-cycle-data.png

which is less than 1 part in 1366.

However, IR trapping gasses that don't fall out in a few days, CO2 is the top contender and constitute over 95% of the total volume of such gasses:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenhouse_gas

And CO2 has increased 40%, hardly insignificant.

Dai, *Iron* is a trace element. What happens when you have zero iron (which is at less than 380ppm in your body)?

But I guess you don't want skepticism or maths or checking the process. All you want is dogma and AGW to be false.</description>

		<description>Yes, I agree with your thoughts above. Our willingness to make a few changes in our lifestyle that is willing to do physical exercises to replace the use of vehicles for short distances will be having many positive effects on our life. By increasing the portion of daily exercise, there is an opportunity to improve our health so that we can reduce many unnecessary health expenses including diet plan cost. Thus, we can hope for increasing of our saving.</description>

		<description>Richard,

You are either wonderfully optimistic and naive or horridly cynical, I can't tell which :-).

The reality is that Climate Policy is a misnomer.  Climate Policy is really People Policy.  This is a Risk Management issue pure and simple which effects every living human being on this planet in one way or another.

A theory has been put forward and has gained some traction.  It is only now receiving truly intense scrutiy from outside the bullwork of bureacracy which is IPCC and of the society of friends which has been those leading the charge based around the notion of AGW.

You are absolutely correct that there is much distraction going on and irrational behavior on every side of the debate.  It seems to frustrate you.  I actually find the interest healthy.  My own interest peaked with ClimateGate and after reading through 150 pages of the EA e-mails, having to filter out "analysis" by an avowed conspiracy theorist, I find the scrutiny the actors both within CRU and without to be useful.

As a professional Risk Manager, I've always found it useful to challenge the assertions/materiality of those who come to me with a risk in a respectful way.  The individual making the assertion will have their position challenged.  It's healthy, and good preparatory work for me when I have to take the position to the Program Manager, get funding for mitigation, and assign the appropriate resource to develop the mitigation plan.  Honest debate, discussed in a respectful way which separates known elements from the unknown is the only way I've found to seriously address Risk Management.

The Climate Policy debate influences everyday people.  The elitism shown within the ClimateGate e-mails is palpable.  The reactions to it by many conformist institutions without a curious brain cell in their heads is predictable.  Your article misses the point completely.  Rationality is often about perception of same by the individual looking through their individual prism.  In a diverse world one should not be surprised to discover diversity of thought.  To write off those differences and character attribute is being irrational is to be too readily dismissive of those who are different than you.  Any honest man or woman should be able to look in the mirror and admit that the image staring back at them does not represent the "ideal".  The viewpoints of that individual will be necessarilly fallible, and that each day represents an opportunity for learning from those who are different than that face we see.

AGW theory proposes a risk and a source.  IPCC seeks to quantify impact (remember, risk quantified = probability * consequence) and prepare policy recommendations for a path forward, all this based on confidence in both the evidence and the potential impacts of the incumbent scenario.  IPCC seeks to validate the integrity of their advisory content through process and vetting of the characters who contribute the content.

That the public speaking through their elected representatives holds these institutions and their designees to a high standard IS A GOOD THING!

AGW theory and accompaning Climate Policy recommendations by those who are proponents of the theory represents one path forward based on a level of uncertainty both of the quantity of risk in evidence and now with ClimateGate, the integrity of those who submitted the content.

The incumbent path forward carries with it incumbent risks AS DOES ANY DEVIATION THEREFROM.

There is absolute certainty that the "consensus recommendation" COP15 was intended to drive represented risk.  It came with a cost.  Proponents would argue the framework and binding language desired came with overwhelming benefits that outweighed those risks.

Proponents of COP15 language in the aftermath of the timid response from official participants remain frustrated, and "blame the messenger".  That messenger of course is the constituency the heads of state and designees present are accountable too.

Frustration with that constituency by labeling them as irrational is elitest and foolish.  Part of Climate Policy by necessity is to craft a message which seems rational to the ultimate customer and stakeholder of the proposed policy changes in question.

Respectfully I say to your profession, buck up and prepare a "rational" policy roadmap going forward that appeals to the constituency you ultimately answer to, your fellow citizens of this globe and stop complaining or get out of the way and let new voices speak in a dialect that your fellow species members can better understand and appreciate.

ClimateGate reveals individuals in a "cocoon" that really need to get out more.  Spend some time with everyday people.  Appreciate the salt of the earth.  Listen to their challenges to your ideas.  Respond with respect and courtesy to them...you'll get further with them that way.  Like it or not, they stand before you requiring persuasion.  Coercion isn't an option so dealing with those you consider "irrational" goes with the territory.  Maybe if you take the time to get to know them a little better, perhaps there's more logic to the "wisdom of the crowds" than you give them credit.

Best wishes,

		<description>I agree that creating bike lanes out of auto lanes may initially cause traffic problems. One would find, however, that once the conditions improve for individuals to safely cycle or walk in urban areas, the traffic problems would diminish as more people take advantage of bike and foot paths. In addition, there are now alternative forms of conventional concrete. Rather than building with conventional concrete or asphalt, more and more communities, municipalities, and businesses are switching to pervious concrete or porous pavement, a material that offers the inherent durability and low life-cycle costs of a typical concrete pavement while retaining stormwater runoff and replenishing local watershed systems.</description>

		<description>Unfortunately, things are connected more than most people can imagine, though climatologists probably are more aware than most.  In order to get safely around on foot or bicycle, roads have to be designed with this mode in mind.  Sidewalks and bike paths require more concrete, and cooking limestone into cement is one of the greatest CO2 emissions sources.   Creating bike lanes out of auto lanes creates more traffic jams, which will be uselessly carbon-emitting until everyone is driving hybrid cars that shut off their engines instead of idling.   While it's hard to tell from the abstract, it appears that this wasn't taken into account.</description>

		<description>Richard - thanks very much for this, I have found it very enlightening to go back and consider the actions of people I have been involved with in the light of your analysis. I too have spent a lot of time and energy trying to deal with people from the assumption that they had the same goals as I did, but we were just misunderstanding one another in some way I could never work out.

Coincidentally, yesterday the fine Mind Hacks blog (http://www.mindhacks.com/) pointed me to an article about the motivation of internet trolls (people who subvert discussions, pick pointless arguments, etc. on forums and comment threads) at Cognition and Culture (http://www.cognitionandculture.net/index.php?option=com_content&#38;view=article&#38;id=559:conversation-hackers-trolls-argumentation&#38;catid=32:oliviers-blog&#38;Itemid=34) written by Olivier Morin and Sophie Claudel which you may find interesting.

Best wishes, Andi</description>

		<title>Comment on How Optimism and Pessimism Shape Our Views on Climate Policy—Part II: Evidence by Mac Callaway</title>

		<description>Should we worry about making "ex ante" policy choices that look good, now, but turn out to be wrong "ex post" (due to "wrong" climate or economic development forecasts)?  

That leads me to divide people into two categories: precautionists who worry about the consequences of making type 2 errors (Planning for  less severe climate change than actually occurs) and cautionists who worry about the consequences of making type 1 errors (Planning for more severe climate change than occurs). 

I think this division also nicely defines the policy debate.</description>

		<description>Hi,

Nine internationally acclaimed photojournalists have come together to put a lens on the effects of climate change. http://www.consequencesbynoor.com

Our photographs are stunning reminders of how climate change is effecting the earth. We would love to talk with you about featuring the project on your site. Please feel free to contact me. najlah@designforsocialgood.com

about consequences by noor

From the frontiers of climate change comes Consequences by NOOR. Featuring the work of nine, internationally acclaimed photographers, this exhibition documents the devastating effects of climate change around the globe. These stunning photographs show not what might happen in the future but what is happening today.

The subjects include: a massive pine beetle kill in British Columbia, genocide in Darfur, the rising sea level in the Maldives, Nenet reindeer herders in Siberia, Inuit hunters in Greenland, a looming crisis in Kolkata, India, coal mining in Poland, oil sand extraction in Canada and the deforestation of the Amazon Rainforest by Brazilian cattle ranchers.

Consequences by NOOR premiers at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, December 7 through December 18, 2009.

Consequences by NOOR goes on tour in 2010 and is available for booking. Below is just one of the images from our project. I'd love to speak with someone to see if you'd be interested in featuring a few of the images on the wwfus website.

		<description>Cultures, civilizations, and nations have evolved in the past 5000 years within a temperate climate with stable sea level. Do you think there is any way to reverse this change? Money and jobs are the obstacles to choosing the only sustainable solution. We cannot build the undeveloped world into even a small town 1800 lifestyle, but we can show them a garden paradise lifestyle that they can all rejoice in. It will be an answer to the expected extinction of humanity and a joy in ending the oppression and stress of the employment lifestyle for those who have been stuck in it The garden paradise lifestyle ends the problem; it does not delay it. It obviously will work; the only question is, Are we willing to retire?</description>

I need to help me to divulgate my campaign for to benefits a world peoples, nature and life.

Jose Pedro naisser.
Brasil..

O Grande  Economista e Humanista que vem lutando ha mais de 10 anos para reduzir a Fome e a Pobreza no Mundo, o renomado Professor Jeffrey Sacks, disse  ontem na Universidade de Columbia por teleconferencia, para o Global Forum na FIEPR,  "que"  :  Nos somos a primeira Geracao que pode colocar um Fim na Pobreza Humana, e que tambem podemos ser a Ultima Geracao que tenha um Planeta Habitavel, por enquanto, nos é que iremos escolher os rumos a tomar, para isso estou enviando a voces o grande desafio, mas postem comentarios e junten-se a nos, estao todos convocados de 1 dia a 155 anos e 11 meses, voces decidem..... the moment is now............ 
 
 
Grandes amigos do Planeta Terra.
 
Nao podemos mais depender dos Governantes, eles nao estao preocupados com o Meio Ambiente e sim com as Economias a qualquer preco e a qualquer custo.......
 
O Grande e famoso Geografo Jared Diamond, disse numa grande entrevista exclusiva as Televisoes de todo mundo de que os Grandes Imperios do Mundo  ruiram e terminaram quando esgotaram seus recursos naturais, com isso os Rios Secaram e o Liquido que  nos Garante Vida, A Agua, com a escassez todos fora dizimados.
 
Hoje ja gastamos 125% dos recursos naturais do Planeta Terra, algo precisa ser feito, e agora, para isso nos ajudem nessa longa jornada, assistam no Youtube
