Fresh technology developed in Japan may be about to swing the global energy pendulum back toward coal, by turning the old fossil fuel into a much cleaner energy source. 

Tyrannosaurus Rex had scales, not feathers, said a study Wednesday which rescues the giant lizard’s reputation as a fearsome killer with a rough-and-tough hide.

“Global warming” is a myth — so say 80 graphs from 58 peer-reviewed scientific papers published in 2017.

NASA has recently unveiled its futuristic Mars rover concept vehicle at Kennedy Space Center, and it looks something out of this world.

Life in the Arctic ocean is much more resistant to global warming than previously suspected, according to a new study by researchers at the University of Aberdeen.

The study, published Tuesday, refutes speculations that global warming would cause a massive disruption to the Arctic ecosystem by killing off the algae living under sea ice.

In a race to catch up with its competitors, Apple on Monday unveiled a smart home speaker and numerous software updates emphasizing artificial intelligence at the Worldwide Developers Conference.

Arctic sea ice extent continues to run well above the level of the last two years.

Offshore wind turbines built according to current standards may not be able to withstand the powerful gusts of a Category 5 hurricane, creating the potential risk for any such turbines built in hurricane-prone areas, new University of Colorado Boulder-led research shows.

New peer-reviewed paper on the greenhouse gas theory is causing tremors among scientists who claim carbon dioxide controls climate. The new paper gives a robust mathematical proof backing a controversial book debunking the ‘settled science’ greenhouse gas effect (GHE).

A team of Czech scientists says they have discovered a new branch of meteors belonging to the meteor stream known as the Taurus — a branch featuring asteroids that could pose a serious threat to Earth in the near future.

Scientists claim that Arctic sea ice is experiencing a record decline.

As Arctic Sea Ice Shows Record Decline, Scientists Prepare to Go Blind

Data from NSIDC shows that the Arctic is actually experiencing a record low decline in sea ice, since the peak on March 3.

The reduction in global temperature after the recent El Nino continues though not as swiftly as some predicted. The next few months will be interesting to see if it returns to levels seen before the recent El Nino took place when global annual average temperatures changed little for at least 15 years.

Hundreds of thousands of scientists took to streets around the world in April. “We need science because science tells the truth. We are those who can fight the fake news,” a friend who participated in one of the March for Science rallies told me. I really wish this were true. Sadly, much evidence suggests otherwise.
