I'm busy with assorted stuff, but note the following:
* Exactly as I guessed, it seems more scientist types are saying that making crops RoundUp resistant was and is a bad long term strategy. It is short term gain for long term pain. Common sense also suggests that making crops more and more resistant to more and more herbicides is not the healthiest thing for the environment.
* Some talk about why universes might live inside black holes.
* Real Climate talks about the paper I already noted regarding climate change and an increase in the water cycle.
* Real Climate also talks about the Australian temperature reconstruction that shows an Australian "hockey stick"-ish rise in temperatures since about 1950.
* Media Watch on the appalling reporting of the "climate scientist death threats" story by the Australia was very good. Andrew Bolt's attempted response was embarrassing.
* One thing that might have been thought to do better with more CO2 in the air, and oceans, was sea grass. However, those in the Mediterranean are apparently sensitive to increasing warm water, and it might already be dying off in places because of that. Another loser in the game of winners and losers.
