Across Quotes
Rain over water affects the climate of the whole planet. It releases energy into the atmosphere. What happens in the tropics is extremely important to the climate of the whole Earth. If you can't measure rain over the ocean, you're missing a lot of activity and you'll never truly understand what is happening to the weather across the world.

Addition Quotes
Deepening our understanding of the global environmental services, in addition to the local environmental services provided by no-till activities, is of critical importance as the world faces a major challenge in reducing the risks associated with greenhouse gas emissions and global climate change.

Change Quotes
Any objective look at what science has to say about climate change ought to be sufficient to persuade reasonable people that the climate is changing and that humans are responsible for a substantial part of that - and that these changes are doing harm and will continue to do more harm unless we start to reduce our emissions.

Business Quotes
The business climate has changed a lot in the last few years, post-Enron and post-Eliot Spitzer. Courts have become a lot more active. E-mail has come to be viewed as a source of truth. If you want to know what really happened, you look at the e-mail. That's why companies are storing more and more of it, and referring back to it.

Accelerate Quotes
The Bush administration's lax new gas mileage standards are unfortunately going to keep America addicted to oil for a long time to come and accelerate impacts from global climate change. The fuel efficiency increases are miniscule compared to what is possible with existing technology and the major reforms urgently needed to cut air pollution, combat global climate change and save money at the gas pump. The Bush administration is figuratively and literally fiddling while the earth burns. The U.S. can and must do better if we are going to leave a habitable and tolerable planet for our children and grandchildren.

Activity Quotes

California Quotes
This is proof that Placer County has the right soil and climate conditions to compete with the other well-known wine appellations in California. Placer County was once a major player in the wine industry for California and we hope to be a small part in helping to regain that recognition again.

Country Quotes
A lot of songs were written in about a six-month period that coincided with the run-up to the election. And we were recording it in the fall, just a couple of weeks before the election. The World Series was going on too, I think. Just having that climate in this country at that time, I had to acknowledge some of what was going on at the time.

Benign Quotes
There were great expectations for a benign climate on Venus, and of course we now know it's not like that. The pressures are crushing, and the temperatures are hot enough to melt lead. So it's quite inhospitable. We don't know how long it's been like that, or if it will stay like that.

Advocacy Quotes
The release of these papers comes at an opportune time. The current issue of TIME offers a series of essays reputedly about climate science, carrying the ominous head line: 'Be Worried, Be Very Worried'. If viewed through a prism of current science, it should read: 'Be Skeptical, Be Very Skeptical'. The entire series is ill- informed, biased and unacceptable for serious public policy decisions. It is, in short, nearly hysterical advocacy designed to frighten readers toward supporting far-reaching policy decisions that would be both harmful and useless.
-
Bottom Quotes
There's been a long-term interest in why it is that high latitude climate seems to be warming more rapidly than the rest of the world. Basically, I thought that maybe vegetation would be having a large influence, but the bottom line of that paper is that snowmelt swamps the vegetation.

Change Quotes
It really gets on my goat that people keep quoting Dorothea Mackellar's 'My Country' as proof that there is no such thing as climate change. A poem written more than 100 years ago by a homesick 19 year old versus an ever-increasing body of refereed scientific thought... hmm, hard to know which way to jump, really.

Budgets Quotes
It looks to be getting some legs here. It's starting to move forward. There's definitely more interest in it out there because it's a way to be more efficient -- more streamlined. IT budgets are still tight, business demands are increasing and there's a general climate of cost containment. It's all making for a huge push on this.
