[Climate Progress] Error-riddled 'Superfreakonomics', Part 2: Who else have Nathan ...: It may be that the benefits of geoengineering will outweigh the negative aspects, and that most of the problems can be dealt with, but the paper from Lomborg’s center ignores the real consensus among all responsible geoengineering researchers. The real consensus, as expressed at the National Academy conference and in the AMS statement, is that mitigation needs to be our first and overwhelming response to global warming, and that whether geoengineering can even be considered as an emergency measure in the future should climate change become too dangerous is not now known.

[Cafe Hayek] Scientific Consensus: The same is true with climatology or any other science. I don't get this philosophy of science that treats scientific understanding of how our world works like some sort of "Battle of the Titans" where a corpus of ideas has to be accepted or rejected in it's entirety.

[Thought Leader] Thought Leader » Bert Olivier » Is there an ecological crisis?: In this way one is put in a position to understand that Montana is a microcosm of planet Earth and that the things that need to be done there are the same things that should be done everywhere on the planet (including, not working against nature when it comes to allowing forests to grow naturally, instead of interfering by thinning out underbrush and smaller vegetation in forests; not allowing toxins to leach into rivers and lakes from mining operations).

[The Oil Drum - Discussions about Energy and Our Future] The Oil Drum | Drumbeat: October 12, 2009: As I sit here writing about Honda's new hybrid, the 2010 Insight, on the desk next to me is the front page of The New York Times declaring that major oil and gas projects now being delayed are setting the stage for "another surge in oil prices once the global economy recovers."

[Watts Up With That?] MIRROR POSTING of Climate Audit Article on Yamal a “Divergence ...: Perhaps there’s some reason why Schweingruber’s Khadyta River, Yamal larch sample should not be included with the Yamal subfossil data. But given the use of a similar Schweingruber data set in combination with the Taymir data (in a case where it’s much further away), it’s very hard to think up a valid reason for excluding Khadyta River, while including the Taymir supplement.

[Triple Pundit] Jeffrey Sachs Calls Outs Failtures in US Policy-Making | Triple Pundit: Sustainable development must be attended to as the central challenge, not a side note taught in the classrooms of kids who will face the climate challenge as perhaps the greatest challenge of their lives. It's business as usual for industry to lobby against regulatory efforts, but my hope is that we can come up with a global framework that spreads the responsibilities evenly so that business plays its role in addressing the climate change crisis.

The main point of the API report is to argue for giving away more allowances for free to US refiners (they would receive 2.25% of the allocation under the House-passed bill).
