Convincing a Climate Change Denier of Reality
By Daniel Brouse Our climate model uses chaos theory in an attempt to adequately account for humans and forecasts a global average temperature increase of 9 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Everybody has the responsibility not to pollute. There are plenty of things you can do to help save the planet. Stop using fossil fuels. […]

Chaos Theory: Evolving Winter Atmospheric Teleconnection Patterns
By Daniel Brouse Teleconnections: Teleconnections refer to climate anomalies and patterns that occur over large distances and are often linked to each other. These connections can manifest as recurring climate patterns, such as El Nino and La Nina events, the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), and the Southern Oscillation (SO). Teleconnections can influence weather and climate […]

9 Climate Change Tipping Points Crossed
By Daniel Brouse March 28, 2024 Tipping points are Critical Milestones that directly impact the rate of acceleration in climate change by multiplying the number and intensity of feedback loops. Identifying and understanding these tipping points is crucial for climate science and policymaking. Crossing multiple tipping points could lead to a domino effect, resulting in […]

Climate Change: Inexplicable Consumer Behavior
By Daniel Brouse March 24, 2024 Climate change is primarily driven by the escalation of thermal energy affecting biogeophysical and socio-economic systems. While biogeophysical factors can be studied using math, physics, and historical records, socio-economic systems pose greater challenges due to the unpredictable consequences of human behavior and inexplicable consumer choices. Inexplicable consumer behavior in […]

Shipping Pollution (Sulfur Emissions and Climate Change)
by Daniel Brouse There are several critical issues associated with marine fuel pollution used in international shipping. Shipping pollution is a global problem, spreading air pollution across the world. Historically, marine fuels have contained higher levels of sulfur due to the lower cost of lower-grade fuel oil. However, heavy fuel oil contains, on average, 2700 […]

The Sleeping Giant Rages Against the Ghost in the Machine Update
by Daniel Brouse March 23, 2024 You asked: I am terrified of what the summer will bring. Yet I also wonder if enough people suffer from out-of-control heat, might it wake up some sleepers? There aren’t enough people paying attention. This is also a significant concern for me. Traditionally, we would expect to observe a […]
