Hello Michele and Hiroshi,
Thanks for the work you shared. I have put some study effort into
atmospheric electrical processes in general and, in particular, the Global
Electrical Circuit (GEC) and the effect on cloud nucleation. You mentioned
no additional heat source around Nordham. Beyond the
Here is a trivial point. I disagree that wind energy changes climate. Rather
it influences weather locally. If one turns off the wind turbines presumably
the weather is quickly restored to its normal state. Moreover the objective
was to produce energy; and not to influence weather or climate. I
To All:
It is perhaps worthwhile to be reminded that the history of the Earth's
average temperature is known from geological and proxy studies going back
450 million years. A good reference is the www.scotese.com website. In all
cases an ice age was followed by an increase to about 25C which
Thanks, Andrew, his email's there, just after the phone/fax.

Andrew - I have re-read the paper you have cited below and decided to try to
put the numbers there into the context of the paper by Dr. David Wasdell that
you alerted us to on the 20th - which I also. found fascinating. For others, I

Hi Folks,
This thread has many aspects which point to the need for a full fledged
website dedicated to the full spectrum of GE issues. Hansen et al. is
showing a willingness to stretch the norms in scientific writing to maybe
express the severity of the situation in terms that the general public
