I read in Jared Diamond's Collapse that almost all of Iceland's buildings are heated with geothermal power, but damn, yo. Very impressive.
Even if it seems certain that you will lose, retaliate. Neither wisdom nor technique has a place in this. A real man does not think of victory or defeat. He plunges recklessly towards an irrational death. By doing this, you will awaken from your dreams. - Hagakure: The Book of the Samurai, Yamamoto Tsunetomo |

yep. that's the diff. between living in a very cold country That Has Hot Springs and living in a very cold country.......that doesn't.
i live in the latter, subsequently the very idea of hot tubbing it outdoors is very appealing to me. anyway - last-last series of Top Gear had a Mercedes that ran on H fuel cells, said it was already availible in Iceland - because that was the only place with a filling station. anyone else see that segement? related to geothermal is heat-exchange technology - this is used a lot in Holland in their indoor horticultural greenhouses. |

Here's a strange and interesting theory: The Black Plague may have caused a mini Ice Age! The idea is that the plague killed so many people that farmland was overrun with trees which absorbed huge amounts of CO2 causing cooling.

Scientists now believe that humans are the only possible explanation of freak climate changes.

This week's Time suggests that we've passed the point of no return for global warming, and that we are in the throes of environmental collapse.

Wow, this is really crazy! Canadian Environmental Minister stops scientist from promoting his own book! And it's a science fiction novel at that, though it paints a world where Global Warming has put Canada and the U.S. at odds to the point of warfare.

The argument over whether Global Warming caused '05 hurricanes threatens to heat the Earth even further!

NASA is sending up a mission to study mysterious, "noctilucent" clouds that started showing up with increasing frequency a few years ago.

Looks like we'll soon find out if the Supremes are really W's Kangaroo Court after all, as Global Warming Gets It's Day in the High Court!

Scientists give Al Gore's Inconvenient Truth top reviews. Which is pretty scary.
