Guest post by Kip Hansen — December 28, 2024 — 1800 words — many images The reservoir is simple. They can be thought of as a rain barrel, with a spout providing water inlet (such as from the roof), a spigot near the bottom of the barrel for extracting water from the barrel, and some overflow device. Great Salt Lake – a model One of the iconic geographical features of the American West is the Great Salt Lake (GSL). Now the GSL is not a reservoir, but it can teach us lessons about reservoirs in the American Southwest. A recent…

From the Daily Skeptic Chris Morrison As the mainstream media engages in its campaign to stoke mass climate psychosis and prepare for the coming net-zero catastrophe, wait for another round of “Hottest Eva” stories. Alas, hold on for a while longer, because after such a brilliant promotional turn, this story may have to be scrapped. Global temperatures are plummeting, and the oceans are cooling at an alarming rate. In the UK, this year could see the second annual temperature drop since the so-called “record” year of 2022. Just last May, the BBC's Matt McGrath and Justin Rowlatt claimed that the…

from climaterealism Guest post by Kenneth Schrupp Editor's note: California has long been the poster child for bad energy policy. Its policies and regulations to combat climate change have led to higher energy prices in the state than in any state except Hawaii, and power shortages and blackouts have become a fact of life in California every summer. As the state encourages people to buy electric vehicles (EVs) and appliances, and will actually enforce such purchases in the near future, governments are often forced to ask EV owners not to charge their vehicles at certain times to keep the lights…
from CFACT David Wojik A bad idea has emerged in the world of “renewable energy”: projects can avoid destroying natural habitats by spending money. Wind and solar schemes still destroy the natural habitats they establish, but they fund a magic wand that supposedly creates new compensatory habitats elsewhere. Not really. The fallacy here is that every acre of land in the United States already has habitat. You can change an acre of habitat from one form to another, but you can't create a form. This is a zero-sum game. Having a long-standing, highly specialized development offset program helps illuminate this…
In this image, note that the “H” indicates the presence of high pressure above the area where all the square states intersect. The good news for Baja Weather 101 is that the strongest Sea of Cortez winds in the winter are caused by high pressure in the Four Corners region of the United States. You can see this high-pressure area in the white isobars circle in the first image. Notice how the lines get closer together on the Sea of Cortez. The closer the lines are, the stronger the pressure gradient and wind. But where have all these north winds…
Article by Eric Worrell Two for the price of one? As the ice melts, it will become very cold. Climate change is the worst. That’s how bad it is this year. Hannah Osborne The big news in earth science this year has been about climate change, a warming climate that is causing extreme weather, floods and droughts. Scientists also warn that the situation will be worse if we don't control carbon emissions. … The looming destruction of climate change But some of the scariest news about the planet isn't what happened this year, but what might happen if we don't…
Once upon a time, there were three little pigs: freedom, prosperity, and free speech. They live peacefully in a vibrant village, working hard and building a life rooted in common sense. But then along comes the Big Bad Wolf, a self-proclaimed climate savior wearing a hemp hoodie and dragging a solar panel and a stack of IPCC reports behind him. The wolf didn't come to help. There he huffed and puffed, tearing down everything the pigs had built, all in the name of “saving the planet.” The first pig: freedom Liberty is a proud, independent pig who builds her house…
