Underestimation of Climate Sensitivity and Feedback Processes
by Daniel Brouse April 2, 2025 In the 1990s, we first hypothesized the non-linear acceleration of climate change. By the early 2000s, this hypothesis had evolved into established climate theory, now widely recognized as scientific fact. My lab partner, a Doctor of Physics from Ohio State, and I collaborated to provide key evidence supporting this […]
Climate Update: Chain Reaction of Devastation
by Daniel Brouse February 28, 2025 Human-induced climate change is directly impacting the habitability of our planet through increased thermal energy. Beyond rising temperatures, the cascading crises resulting from climate change can have immediate effects on health and wellness. The pollution caused by California wildfires, for instance, is expected to have long-term health impacts. In […]
