Direct from the manual of “let’s run models and scare the world without checking actual data” is this recent piece from our favorite fear mongering news outlet, The Guardian, titled “Risk of snakebites increasing as reptiles adapt to changing world, says study.”

Of course, forcing employers to turn up the air conditioning is hardly going to help them use less energy and reduce their ‘carbon footprint’.

Ed Miliband has decreed that tumble dryers are so dreadful that traditional ones are to be banned, to be replaced with ‘green’ ones which are more expensive and take longer to dry your clothes. This is symptomatic of the difference between socialist and conservative values.

It's not that nobody cares, its just people worried about the imminent end of the world are too shy to speak up.
The study authors have apparently never heard of swimming.
CO2 is thinning the atmosphere, causing solar warming, CDU politician Manuel Hagel explained to schoolchildren.
The moral of the story may be that Earth’s oceans are less volatile than our coordinate systems. While the water creeps upward at a stately pace measured in millimetres per year, the reference frames used to describe it can shift by centimetres or metres depending on the choice of model.
Their only concern is that a war might put a bit more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere!
They would no doubt be much happier with a nuclear winter! At least it will lower global warming.

The last time these extreme weather conditions were recorded was shortly after the Little Ice Age.
If large predators keep eating people in your village, the solution is to build wind turbines and install solar panels?
It is certainly an imaginative (and that is being generous) attempt to unify atmospheric electricity and seismology, but the central weakness is that it moves rapidly from correlation to causation without robust empirical validation.
Guardian author Alex Clark wants the world to "move beyond" GDP as a measure of wellbeing. The experiment should start with The Guardian.
