    <blockquote> Today, Phoenix is a horizon of asphalt, air
      conditioning and historic indifference to the pitfalls of putting
      1.5 million people in a place that gets just 8 inches of rain a
      year and where the temperature routinely exceeds 100 degrees.<br>
      Now, however, the city faces a reckoning. It is called climate
      change, and it is expected to further expose the glaring gap
      between how the city lives and what it can sustain. The future,
      scientists say, will be even hotter and drier, the monsoons more
      mercurial. Summertime highs could reach 130 degrees before the end
      of the century — think Death Valley, but with subdivisions.<br>
      As President Trump rolls back the country's commitments on climate
      change, Phoenix is one of many cities facing daunting predictions
      of what lies ahead, and most have few resources with which to
      prepare. Public health and economic prosperity are both at risk.<br>
      The average high here in August now exceeds 104 degrees, but 110
      is not uncommon, and the temperature has hit 120 more than once.
      In summer 2016, a study by Climate Central and the Weather Channel
      found that the average temperature in Phoenix had increased 1.12
      degrees over the previous half a century. No major city saw
      temperatures rise more — and, of course, no major city regularly
      reached such scorching highs in the first place.<br>
      The political climate is brutal as well. Many state leaders do not
      accept climate science. The Republican-controlled Legislature is
      so resistant that it fights local action. Last year, it passed a
      law to prevent cities from requiring businesses to report how much
      energy they use, though such systems are mandatory in some cities
      in other states.<br>

      atop normally dry terrain has led to episodes of major flooding
      over the last few weeks. More than 110,000 people have been
      displaced by flooding since December, according to Reuters, and
      more than 80 deaths have been reported.<br>
      "We came as close as one can to demonstrating a direct link
      between climate change and a large family of extreme recent
      weather events," said Michael Mann, distinguished professor of
      atmospheric science and director, Earth System Science Center,

    <blockquote>March 17th, the International Energy Agency announced
      that 2016 marked the third year in a row that global carbon
      emissions had stayed at the same level while the world's economy
      grew. ...<br>
       The global economy has now grown nearly ten per cent without any
      increase in the annual CO2 emissions that are the principal human
      contribution to climate change. In the parlance of sustainability,
      growth and emissions appear to have "decoupled."<br>
      Few climate scientists believe that we’ve reached peak emissions.
      The Chinese government has reserved the right to increase its
      carbon pollution until 2030 as it plays developmental catch-up
      with North America and Europe. In the U.S., Trump's anticipated
      policy shifts aren't the only concern; so is the Trump Bump—an
      outbreak of investor-class optimism that could accelerate growth
      to a point that puts emissions back on an upward trajectory. <br>
      "We didn't seem to be able to have high growth without growing
      emissions, which suggests it’s hard, at the very least, to get
      very major reductions in emissions without some change in the
      scale of the economy," Richard York, an environmental sociologist
      at the University of Oregon who studies resource consumption and
      pollution, told me. We seem to have found a painless way to slow
      the increase in emissions; now we only need to find a similar
      solution for growth itself.<br>

          weather events linked to climate change impact on the jet
          stream</a></b></font><br>
    <blockquote>Unprecedented summer warmth and flooding, forest fires,
      drought and torrential rain—extreme weather events are occurring
      more and more often, but now an international team of climate
      scientists has found a connection between many extreme weather
      events and the impact climate change is having on the jet stream.<br>
      "We came as close as one can to demonstrating a direct link
      between climate change and a large family of extreme recent
      weather events," said Michael Mann, distinguished professor of
      atmospheric science and director, Earth System Science Center,
      Penn State. "Short of actually identifying the events in the
      climate models."<br>
      The unusual weather events that piqued the researchers' interest
      are things such as the 2003 European heat wave, the 2010 Pakistan
      flood and Russian heatwave, the 2011 Texas and Oklahoma heat wave
      and drought and the 2015 California wildfires.<br>
      The researchers looked at a combination of roughly 50 climate
      models from around the world that are part of the Coupled Model
      Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5), which is part of the
      World Climate Research Programme. These models are run using
      specific scenarios and producing simulated data that can be
      evaluated across the different models. However, while the models
      are useful for examining large-scale climate patterns and how they
      are likely to evolve over time, they cannot be relied on for an
      accurate depiction of extreme weather events. That is where actual
      observations prove critical.<br>
      The researchers looked at the historical atmospheric observations
      to document the conditions under which extreme weather patterns
      form and persist. These conditions occur when the jet stream, a
      global atmospheric wave of air that encompasses the Earth, becomes
      stationary and the peaks and troughs remain locked in place.<br>
      "Most stationary jet stream disturbances, however, will dissipate
      over time," said Mann. "Under certain circumstances the wave
      disturbance is effectively constrained by an atmospheric wave
      guide, something similar to the way a coaxial cable guides a
      television signal. Disturbances then cannot easily dissipate, and
      very large amplitude swings in the jet stream north and south can
      remain in place as it rounds the globe."<br>
      This constrained configuration of the jet stream is like a
      rollercoaster with high peaks and valleys, but only forms when
      there are six, seven or eight pairs of peaks and valleys
      surrounding the globe. The jet stream can then behave as if there
      is a waveguide<font color="#000099"><b>-</b></font>uncrossable
      barriers in the north and south—and a wave with large peaks and
      valleys can occur.<br>
      "If the same weather persists for weeks on end in one region, then
      sunny days can turn into a serious heat wave and drought, and
      lasting rains can lead to flooding," said Stefan Rahmstorf,
      Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK), Germany.<br>
      The structure of the jet stream relates to its latitude and the
      temperature gradient from north to south.<br>
      Temperatures typically have the steepest gradients in
      mid-latitudes and a strong circumpolar jet stream arises. However,
      when these temperature gradients decrease in just the right way, a
      weakened "double peak" jet stream arises with the strongest jet
      stream winds located to the north and south of the mid-latitudes.<br>
      "The warming of the Arctic, the polar amplification of warming,
      plays a key role here," said Mann. "The surface and lower
      atmosphere are warming more in the Arctic than anywhere else on
      the globe. That pattern projects onto the very temperature
      gradient profile that we identify as supporting atmospheric
      waveguide conditions."<br>
      Theoretically, standing jet stream waves with large amplitude
      north/south undulations should cause unusual weather events.<br>

    <blockquote> A team of Harvard University scientists led by
      Professor David Keith plans to begin a trial of a so-called
      'geoengineering' project next year.<br>
      This will involve spraying fine particles of water and various
      materials, such as sulphur dioxide, from a high-altitude balloon.<br>
      Geo-engineering has the potential to destroy as well as preserve<br>
      It is thought doing this on a large scale would cool the planet in
      a similar way to the effect of the lightest debris produced by
      volcanic eruptions.<br>
      However such ideas are controversial with the United Nations
      Convention on Biological Diversity agreeing in December that its
      moratorium on climate geoengineering should remain in place. <br>
      This is partly because such measures could have unintended
      consequences, such as causing drought in the Sahel region of
      Africa, as one scientific study suggested.<br>
      "Worryingly, geoengineering may emerge as this administration's
      preferred approach to global warming. <br>
      "In their view, building a big beautiful wall of sulphate in the
      sky could be a perfect excuse to allow uncontrolled fossil fuel
      extraction. <br>
      "We need to be focussing on radical emissions cuts, not dangerous
      and unjust technofixes."<br>
      Professor Daniel Schrag, of Harvard, said in a <a
        href="http://geoengineering.environment.harvard.edu/">promotional
        video </a> about their planned trial: "One aspect of the climate
      problem that people sometimes don't appreciate is the timescale –
      the fact that a large fraction of the carbon we are putting in the
      atmosphere will still be there thousands, even tens of thousands,
      of years from now."<br>
      But switching from fossil fuels to renewables, he claimed, would
      take "many decades and probably much more than a century<br>

          Mercers, Trump mega-donors, back group that casts doubt on
          climate science</a></b><br>
      <i>Story  linking Mercer money to Heartland Institute to Trump
        climate agenda.  Probably the best panorama of the Heartland
        Inst since 2012 revelations, showing how confident the climate
        deniers are that they won the election and have won the debate
        and won the war.</i><br>
      The atmosphere was buoyant at a conference held by the
      conservative Heartland Institute last week at a downtown
      Washington hotel, where speakers denounced climate science as
      rigged and jubilantly touted deep cuts President Trump is seeking
      to make to the Environmental Protection Agency.<br>
      Front and center during the two-day gathering were New York hedge
      fund executive Robert Mercer and his daughter Rebekah Mercer,
      Republican mega-donors who with their former political adviser
      Stephen K. Bannon helped finance an alternative media ecosystem
      that amplified Trump's populist themes during last year's
      campaign.<br>
      The Mercers' attendance at the two-day Heartland conference
      offered a telling sign of the low-profile family's priorities:
      With Trump in office, the influential financiers appear intent on
      putting muscle behind the fight to roll back environmental
      regulations, a central focus of the new administration.<br>

      events.  We have followed these events going back to 2008...<br>
      The groups sponsoring the Heartland meeting were all big winners
      in ExxonMobil's climate denial campaign, but Heartland Institute
      along with CEI, (the Koch funded) Cato Institute, CFACT, George
      Marshall Institute (now CO2 Coalition) and virtually every other
      organization represented at this meeting, aside from American
      Enterprise Institute, was dropped by ExxonMobil from 2005-2008,
      when Exxon was embarrassed for being shown to be funding these
      extremist orgs of the anti-environmental movement. In other words,
      a decade ago,the Heartland Institute position on climate was too
      extreme for even Exxon and then CEO Rex Tillerson to stomach... <br>
      Koch foundations also fund most of these groups heavily.  That
      data can be found at Greenpeace, where they recently tabulated
      that the Koch apparatus has now exceeded $100 million in climate
      denial funding.<br>

    <blockquote>With Trump in the White House, an anti-environmental

      he said. And Trump is expected to issue a far-reaching executive
      order on Tuesday to gut Obama's efforts to fight climate change.
      While the order reportedly doesn't include many of the items on
      Heartland attendees' wish list, it's more than they dreamed was
      possible.<br>
      "I know that you guys kind of laugh at us, but we're winning,"
      Milloy said. "We're in the driver's seat right now. And whoever
      thought that would happen? I've been doing this for 25 years. If
