E continua... Documentação, humor, evidência, ciência e vídeos

Documentação: Humor, evidência e vídeos:
  • More conclusive proof of global warming « Climate Progress» : Vídeos humorísticos sobre o aquecimento global [não consigo reproduzi-los aqui] e notícias sobre as Olimpíadas de Inverno, em Vancouver: In one of the greatest coincidences in human history, Vancouver just blew out its monthly temperature records a mere three years after the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change said warming in the climate system is unequivocal: January temperatures were the warmest on record and the trend is continuing this month, says Environment Canada meteorologist Matt McDonald, one of 30 forecasters working the Winter Games.This year, the average temperature in January was 44.9 degrees, besting the previous warm record of 43.3 in 2006 and well above the historic average of 37.9 degrees, according to Environment Canada weather data.
Ciência, evidência e vídeos:
  • Visual depictions of CO2 levels and CO2 emissions: Diversos vídeos, e todos eles bastante pedagógicos. Só se reproduz o primeiro: "Measurements of atmospheric carbon dioxide come from more than a single station on a Hawaiian volcano. There are ground based stations scattered across the globe taking direct measurements. Three independent satellites take global CO2 measurements: the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) on the NASA Aqua spacecraft, Envirosat by the European Space Agency and IBUKI by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency. For periods before direct measurements, CO2 can be determined from Antarctic and Greenland ice cores. Here are some visual summaries of CO2 data:[...]"
