NASA has given us this amazing shot of the oil spill about 50 miles off the coast of Louisiana. To get an idea of the size of the spill, New Orleans is labeled on the left.
Of course, nowadays, drilling for oil in the Gulf of Mexico is perfectly safe, since any spill could be contained before say, 42,000 gallons of oil a day escaped into the formerly clean waters.

Fertilizing the oceans with iron to absorb carbon dioxide could increase concentrations of a chemical that can kill marine mammals, a study has found.
Iron stimulates growth of marine algae that absorb CO2 from the air, and has been touted as a "climate fix".

Arctic seabed stores of methane are now destabilizing and venting vast stores of frozen methane—a greenhouse gas 30 times more potent than carbon dioxide. The paper, in the prestigious journal Science, reports the permafrost under the East Siberian Arctic Shelf—long thought to be an impermeable barrier sealing in methane—is instead perforated and leaking large amounts of methane into the atmosphere. Melting of even a fraction of the clathrates stored in that shelf could trigger abrupt climate warming.

Freakish snow storms warm the hearts of both believers and skeptics of global warm … err … climate change.
Federal government offices in Washington, D.C., closed for the third straight day today as back-to-back winter storms pushed the region toward the heaviest single season of snowfall on record.
