Global Warming: The Bio Fuel solution
The recent furore over the Kyoto protocol pertaining to global climate change, as well as the rising prices of fossil fuels has led India and other developing countries to look for an ecological and economically viable alternative. Several initiatives have been taken in recent times on the energy front such as large scale promotion of wind energy farms for power generation, blending of ethyl alcohol with petrol and developmental efforts towards bio fuels. Impressed by the potential of Jatropha curcas, the Government of India and the Planning Commission have been looking at the opportunity carefully. Several reports have been prepared and organizations such as the Indian Oil Corporation and Indian Railways, as well as several universities a...

(PRWeb) February 26, 2007 -- Release of a new website on global warming dealing with the competing theories of greenhouse gases and influences from the sun.
It's all over the news. The world's climate is getting warmer. Glaciers worldwide are melting.
Most scientists believe that the current global warming is caused by man-made emissions of greenhouse gases and that the most important of these gases is Carbon Dioxide or CO2.
They also believe that the sun's influence on this warming is very small.
It's now known that the irradiance or "heat transfer" from the sun to the Earth has varied relative little during recent decades.
Therefore the conclusion most scientists have done is that the resent warming must be man-made. This is because they haven't found any other reasonable explanation.
Current knowledge over how much a specific increase of CO2 will have on global temperature is poor. The reason in that our understanding of how greenhouse gases affect cloud formation is mostly down to speculations. Cloud formation physics is a complicated process which includes many different factors.
Therefore, rather than having a solid theoretical and measured basis for how much man-made greenhouse gases affect the climate, the made estimations are mostly down to deduction.
They argue: It's know how much the temperature has increased so therefore one can calculate how much a specific increase in greenhouse gases will increase the global temperature in the future. This calculation has been made thorough deduction by scientists as they already have attributed the previous known increase to be greenhouse driven.
However scientists who study the Sun have long noted similarities between solar activity and terrestrial weather patterns and the weather changes of the last century is not something unique. Given the relative small changes in the observed irradiance "heat emitted from the sun," those changes in temperatures during past centuries are hard to explain if no other types of influence from the Sun are included.
It was not until the Danish scientist Henrik Svensmark suggested that cosmic radiation could influence cloud cover that a plausible explains for this apparent correlation was given.
Currently there is a lack of information dealing with the climate, current warming and climate predictions which includes both competing theories. A new website has therefore been created on this controversial subject which attempts to be a repository on global warming by collecting the most important graphs and information in one place.
It does this by examine the relationship between greenhouse gases and global warming. It also deals with the close relationship between the variation in the Sun's long term magnetic activity and recent warming. It takes a critical view on current climate research and its relationship to research funding and the news media.
