by Daniel Brouse August 9 ,2024 As an economist, I have spent my career studying risk management, and in the process, I have also become a climate scientist—because climate change is the greatest risk to humanity. Climate science is closely tied to our emotions, particularly hate and love. The hatred of scientists and intelligence is […]

Drill, Baby, Drill (How Hate and Ignorance Distort Economic Perspectives)
“Perhaps most importantly is the repeated use of the phrase ‘Drill, Baby, Drill’.” Economic Update: If Trump wins, great news for the very few people whose primary income comes from government securities interest! Unfortunately, very, very bad news for everyone else. Tariffs, protectionism, lack of immigration, and nationalism are all detrimental to the economy. Tariffs […]

The Deadly Dog Days of Summer
by Daniel Brouse and Sidd Mukherjee A dog panting helps with thermal regulation primarily through evaporative cooling. Here’s how it works: Evaporative Cooling: When a dog pants, it increases the airflow over the moist surfaces of its tongue and the lining of its upper respiratory tract. This enhances evaporation of moisture from these surfaces, which […]

Politicians in Conservative, Rural USA Hinder Freedom
by Daniel Brouse Politicians in conservative, rural parts of the USA have often hindered progress in the fight against climate change due to several reasons: 1. Denial of Climate Science Many conservative politicians in rural areas deny the existence or severity of climate change, dismissing it as a hoax or exaggerated. This denial stems from […]

Jet Skis, Off-Road Vehicles, and Children’s Long-Term Health Impact Risks
by Daniel Brouse Repetitive collisions and vibrations experienced by children while riding jet skis, quads, dirt bikes, and other similar vehicles can have several impacts on their organs, such as the brain and kidneys. Here’s how these activities can affect these organs: Brain Impact Brain Against the Skull (Concussions): Mechanism: The repetitive jarring and impacts […]
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. […]

Understanding Straight-Line Winds and Climate Change
By Daniel Brouse May 18, 2024 Weather Like the Deadly Houston Windstorm Is Being Fueled in Part by Climate Change Scientists have detected an increase since the 1980s in what are known as straight-line winds, and climate change is playing a significant role. These winds, which are often associated with severe thunderstorms, can reach speeds […]

Survey of Experts: Climate Crisis Going Past 2.5 Degrees
by Daniel Brouse The Guardian reports, “Many of the scientists envisage a ‘semi-dystopian’ future, with famines, conflicts and mass migration, driven by heatwaves, wildfires, floods and storms of an intensity and frequency far beyond those that have already struck.” In a recent survey of climate scientists, the consensus suggests that global warming is on track […]

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 […]
