Calvin on Climate: Climate: Is This the Best We Can Do?
http://calvinclimate.blogspot.com/2014/09/climate-is-this-best-we-can-do.html
Critical essays on the more urgent aspects of climate change, by William H. Calvin, author of Global Fever (University of Chicago Press). Climate: Is This the Best We Can Do? Suppose that you went to the dentist with a toothache. But instead of filling the cavity, the dentist merely told you to brush your teeth more often. But we’re doing something about it, right? Yet reducing emissions from tailpipes and smokestacks does not reduce the carbon dioxide accumulation, not any more than a drop in the intere...

Calvin on Climate: Plowing Under a Carbon-fixing Crop
http://calvinclimate.blogspot.com/2015/01/plowing-under-carbon-fixing-crop.html
Critical essays on the more urgent aspects of climate change, by William H. Calvin, author of Global Fever (University of Chicago Press). Plowing Under a Carbon-fixing Crop. The common criticism of ocean fertilization by upwelling nutrients from the depths is that it also brings up CO2 from the depths. If one does not explore the issue more fully, it makes one think that upwelling nutrients is counterproductive. Instead of sinking only the debris that is heavy enough to settle out, as in iron fertilizati...

Calvin on Climate: This New Era of Climate Instability
http://calvinclimate.blogspot.com/2014/09/this-new-era-of-climate-instability.html
Critical essays on the more urgent aspects of climate change, by William H. Calvin, author of Global Fever (University of Chicago Press). This New Era of Climate Instability. In our race to overheat the planet, hot spots have developed. Unless you reside on a yacht, you probably live atop one. A fireplace is merely a mini hot spot. As warm air rises, cooler air comes rushing in to replace it (the “draw”). With hotter spots, you get a stronger breeze. This generality tells us quite a lot about what’...

Critical essays on the more urgent aspects of climate change, by William H. Calvin, author of Global Fever (University of Chicago Press). Our Understated Climate Problem. For climate disease, there is no doubt remaining about the diagnosis: global overheating, mostly from an insulating blanket of the carbon dioxide produced by burning fossil fuels. That’s what stirs up such knock-on effects as extreme weather and expanding subtropical deserts. But what’s left out of most simulations are the equally...

Calvin on Climate: Why Climate is Already an Emergency
http://calvinclimate.blogspot.com/2014/11/why-climate-is-already-emergency.html
Critical essays on the more urgent aspects of climate change, by William H. Calvin, author of Global Fever (University of Chicago Press). Why Climate is Already an Emergency. As World War Two was starting in Europe, the American President Franklin Delano Roosevelt used the metaphor of a “four-alarm fire up the street” that needed to be extinguished immediately, whatever the cost. The situation in 1940 was not merely a crisis, what with Europe engulfed and Britain under attack. It was an emergency. The in...

The First List: From Throwing to Chronology. French hand axe, possibly from 500,000 BC. In the previous post. We looked at the earliest examples of organized information. These are primarily bone or antler artifacts with small slashes often incised over a period of time, indicating a chronologic list. Why would our first attempts at organized information be chronologic? Surprisingly the answer may involve our ability to throw. Three wooden spears like this one were found at Schöningen, Germany. In Englan...
