Guest post by Christopher Monckton of Brenchley Abstract Global CO2 emissions per unit increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration provide an independent constraint on climate sensitivity over the timescale of the…

Earth's CO2 sinks increasing their uptake
Readers may recall these WUWT stories: Earth’s biosphere booming, California’s giant redwoods inconveniently respond to increased carbon dioxide, and Forget deforestation: The world’s woodland is getting denser and change could help…
USA CO2 emissions may drop to 1990 levels this year
I graphed the EIA data, shown below. What is most interesting is that this is market driven, not mandate driven. Amazing Shale: US CO2 Emissions Plummet Towards 1990 Levels by…
CO2 Is Greening The Planet: African Savannahs Getting a Makeover to Forests
I’ve covered this before, such as when NASA posted satellite data showing that the biosphere is booming thanks to CO2 fertilization. This new study from Goethe University in Frankfurt, Germany…
The Bern Model Puzzle
Guest Post by Willis Eschenbach Although it sounds like the title of an adventure movie like the “Bourne Identity”, the Bern Model is actually a model of the sequestration (removal…
What – you mean we aren't controlling the climate?
Correlation of Net CO2 emissions with climate properties shows that the growth in CO2 may be natural Story submitted by WUWT reader Steve Brown The narrative of the catastrophic anthropogenic…
Chicken Little of the Sea Visits Station ALOHA
Guest post by David Middleton Introduction My never-ending search for actual observational data that support the hypothesis of catastrophic anthropogenic ocean acidification (Chicken Little of the Sea) has taken me…
Carbon, on the uptake
From the University of Bristol Carbon cycling was much smaller during last ice age than in today’s climate Atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the most important greenhouse gases…
The Fate of All Carbon
Guest post by David Archibald The fate of all carbon is Davy Jones’ locker. Following the post on the imminent decline in world oil production and the effect that would…
New study: Earth may be able to recover from rising carbon dioxide emissions faster than previously thought
That’s the good news. The bad news is that they think it will take 30,000-40,000 years, even though they “don’t know exactly where this carbon went” (their own words from…
Commentary- Hansen Draft Paper: Paleoclimate Implications for Human-Made Climate Change
by Dr. Martin Hertzberg As the saying goes: “If all you have in your hand is a hammer, then everything looks like a nail”. It is hopeless to expect that…
Knobs
Guest Post by Willis Eschenbach Andrew Lacis and the good folks at GISS have a new paper, Atmospheric CO2: Principal Control Knob Governing Earth’s Temperature, Andrew A. Lacis, Gavin A.…
NASA climate model shows plants slow Global Warming by creating a new negative feedback in response to increased CO2
From NASA Earth Science news: A new NASA computer modeling effort has found that additional growth of plants and trees in a world with doubled atmospheric carbon dioxide levels…
