Picture how a radiator heats a home. Water is heated by a boiler, and the hot water circulates through pipes and radiators in the house. The radiators warm up and heat the air in the room. The radiators are, in fact, cooling down, but their stored heat is still warming the air in the room.

Recent science doesn’t support this optimism, as new studies show that the increased release of Black Carbon, one of the most potent climate change forcers—as well as soot, carbon dioxide, methane and ozone from more traffic in the Arctic—could lead to a 20% increase in the global heating that is causing warmer ocean temperatures.

This new, passive radar system could offer a cheaper, lower power and more easily scalable method to gather long-term data on the melting of ice sheets and glaciers due to climate change, say the researchers. One is that the level of solar radiation is relatively low, especially at the Earth’s poles.

For example, Antarctica acts to cool our planet by reflecting solar radiation back to space by virtue of the brightness of its snow surface. The danger is that the Antarctic sea ice is starting to behave like the Arctic, with sustained loss of ocean cover and consequent absorption of solar radiation.

So, the main one I suppose that caught my attention was “Climate Change is Not Making Natural Disasters” and everywhere I look, trying to approach it from your perspective, I just find it a confounding thing for you to assert. I'm not to some extent related to anthropogenic climate change. So let's go to that.
