Climate science, like the climate itself, is complex in the extreme. Simplistic interpretations of complex systems provide a worse that useless contribution to the discussion.

I am posting a link to the current issue of Nature -- to the editorial page. Far from reeling from the theft of some emails at a university, the rest of the world continues to move forward -- as it should move forward. There will always be more to learn, but one thing we can and must learn is that there will always be politically motivated attempts to scare people away from progress. So far, it seems that the only people who are impressed by the theft of emails are precisely those whose political motivations far outweigh their grasp of the complexity of scientific issues of climate science and the breadth of the effort that is underway both in scientific and political circles.

<<In the end, successful international negotiations share some important characteristics with scientific research. Both are iterative processes, in which results from one step help to determine the path forward. They require time and perseverance. And they rarely travel in a straight line. Countries should endeavour to build on the positive actions of the past year, both before and after the Copenhagen summit.>>

On Art Wolfe's Travels to the Edge when he went to Antarctica recently, the his naturalist guide mentioned that the ice sheet in Antarctica is still growing today.

He also went to the lower arctic regions in Alaska in a recent episode and walked through a new forest which Wolfe said had been permafrost when he visited that area over twenty years ago.

Mixed bag. Whatever... the carbon tax will Enronize the rest of American I believe. And even if the planet starts cooling off rapidly, the tax will morph into whatever is necessary to keep the tax going. When has the gov't ever taken their hand out of our pocket, after all, once it has gotten it in there?
