In support of science in public policy, and those like Phil Jones who (in spite of those who dislike the implications) make that science accessible to the public and to policymakers. Steve Latham, Canada -

In less than a generation your detractors will look, at the very least, bloody silly; at worst willfully and criminally negligent – to *everyone*. To those who have done any proper reading on the subject they look a combination of the two *now* Keep up the essential work. many thanks. Joe Cushley, London -

GeoffThomas at 09:01 AM on 1 July 2012Michaels and Cato Unwittingly Accept the Climate Threat
To "ralbin" on cap and trade, just a point of logic, if a cap and trade policy is instituted then the price of abatement is unexpectedly less, that does not reduce the effectiveness of the cap and trade as without it the abatement may have not been tried therefore the cheapness never realised. In fact the cap and trade success is not 'confounded", it is strengthened. Whether regulatory control is better has to take into account the reduced political support for it so reducing the likelihood that it will be imposed. No doubt the solution will vary from case to case, and each measure adds to the general success, (or lowers the speed to more warming, more properly said) but cap and trade is easier to spread across borders into different political realities as it uses common principles, - ie money etc. Geoff Thomas. -

Tom Curtis at 08:30 AM on 1 July 2012Glaciers are growing
wealthychef @41, figure 1 in the basic article represents a full rebutal of the fake skeptic claims. If you look at it, you will see a gradual loss of glacial ice from 1850, which represents the ongoing glacial retreat for some glaciers since the little ice age. However, two features stand out. First is the much more rapid loss of ice since 1970. If glacial ice loss simply represented the restoration of equilibrium after the LIA, glacial ice loss would gradually slow as it approached that equilibrium. Hence, the recent very rapid ice loss shows clearly that the cause is a recent warming rather than the warming that accompanied the end of the LIA. Second is the brief accumulation of glacial ice from 1950-1970. Global temperatures actually cooled slightly during that interval, primarily due to the rapid accumulation of sulphate (SO4) in the atmosphere from the burning of coal. The important factor here, however, is that that brief cooling could not have resulted in an overall gain in glacial ice unless the glacial ice was very close to equilibrium. That gain in glacial ice therefore contradicts the fundamental assumption of the fake skeptic argument, which is that glacial ice balance is far from equilibrium, and continues to be lost because of a warming episode that ended over a century ago. Typical of fake skeptic arguments, the argument presented at climate-skeptic.com is depends on superficial knowledge of the data to retain its plausibility. -
