Will Utilities Adapt or Fight Transformation? EDITOR’S NOTE: The energy customer of America is up for grabs. They are interested in getting as efficient as possible and they are eager to explore new ways of securing their own energy supplies, reliably. Incumbent monopoly utilities face new challenges as they scramble for new business models – the theme of the first Energy Times Executive Energy Briefing in Washington. read more

Global Warming Could Explain Exponential Sea Ice Growth
2013-09-18 22:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RedOrbit: In a bit of strange and unprecedented good news, it was recently discovered Antarctic sea ice is growing at record rates. This is definitely odd, of course, because the air and the oceans have been getting warmer in the area. There is now more sea ice in Antarctica than there had been in the 1970s, a data point which University of Washington (UW) researcher Jinlun Zhang wanted to unpack and investigate. According to his National Science Foundation-funded research, global warming might be responsible...
Is Climate Change causing an exponential rate of Ice sheet Mass Loss, sea level rise?
2013-01-01 18:53:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Bay Area Indymedia: The thesis that Hansen has put forward for several years is that Ice Sheet collapse is a non-linear process: that with the inclusion of amplifying climate feedbacks it is likely to follow an exponential rate of acceleration - a doubling rate. It might be a 10 year doubling time, or less. This will lead to extensive sea level rise, perhaps in the order of 5 metres this century. But accurate data measurements of ice mass loss via laboriously estimating mass input and output has only been available...
