global warming...

I'm generally interested in what's happening out there, in space. I became introduced to astronomy by my grand uncle Christian when I was about 10 year old, looking through a telescope at the moon... That was it.

Since then, I've spent countless nights looking at stars and photographing them and reading about space, cosmology, birth of the universe, astrophysics, etc etc. I'm also fascinated with space exploration.

I'm also very aware of my impact on the world I live in and global warming. But I somehow never connected the 2.

A few days ago, I came across this post on spaceweather.com that suggest that in the last 8 years, the global warming has been compensated by natural phenomenons such as the solar minimum, El nino and volcanism.

And tonight I was told that human influence on global warming is of the order of 1%. In fact, global warming is happening on others planets such as Mars, Jupiter.

Being curious in nature, and not taking any as the absolute truth, I want to start tracking all things I can find about the influence of natural phenomenons on Global warming. This with the goal of plotting all the data to see if any pattern comes out.

So here are a few interesting articles. The natural phenomenoms to be considered are:
-solar irradience
-planet orbit
-planet wobling (precession of equinoxes)
-planet magnetic field position and strength
-position of the sun in the galactic plane

6 months spring time

Theo's discovering spring, grass, and cowboy boots. And he clearly likes it...

Theo's 5 month adventures

Fun with Daddy is pretty cool when you are 5 month old. Clearly Daddy enjoys it a lot as well.

So here comes this serie:
1-Theo thinks Daddy's big nose and mouth is quite fun to play with,
2-At St James park, Daddy does a bit of gardening/flower lesson with Theo... hum how does this tulip taste?
3-Theo likes his compotes and purees. There's not doubt about it.
4-And a bit of a rest on the sofa isn't bad either.

Enjoy...

Mamy P's in town... Yihaaaa

Theo is treated by his texan grand mother this week. It's so great to have Paula come over and know Theo. And Theo seems to like her a lot, given how the 2 play together!

Theo - 4 months

I've been bad... and good. Just ended up spending most of my time with Theo and therefore not publishing pics of him... Well here you go a little 4 months gallery
