The theory of Anthropomorphic Climate Warming (AGW) rests on a three-legged stool. The first leg of the stool is that is that global average temperatures are at historic highs. The second leg of the stool is that CO2 levels are also at historic highs. The third leg of the stool is that peer-reviewed articles on global warming show a clear consensus of opinion. The recent release of e-mails from Britain’s Climate Research Unit, dubbed “climategate” by the media, have made available information that kicks all three legs out from under the stool.

U.S. Competitiveness in Science and Technology
Is the United States in danger of losing its competitive edge in science and technology (S&T)? This concern has been raised repeatedly since the end of the Cold War, most recently in a wave of reports in the mid-2000s suggesting that globalization and the growing strength of other nations in S&T, coupled with inadequate U.S. investments in research and education, threaten the United States’ position of leadership in S&T. Galama and Hosek examine these claims and contrast them with relevant data, including trends in research and development investment; information on the size, composition, and pay of the U.S. science and engineering workforce; and domestic and international education statistics.
Tendencias Globales 2025: Un Mundo Transformado
(Consejo Nacional de Inteligencia-USA)
Noviembre 2008
Hemos preparado Tendencias Globales 2025: Un Mundo Transformado para estimular el pensamiento estratégico acerca del futuro mediante la identificación de las principales tendencias, los factores que las dirigen, que parecen estar a cargo, y la forma en que podrían interactuar. Utiliza escenarios para ilustrar algunas de las muchas maneras en que los conductores examinados en el estudio (por ejemplo, la globalización, la demografía, el surgimiento de nuevos poderes, la decadencia de las instituciones internacionales, el cambio climático, y la geopolítica de la energía) pueden interactuar para generar retos (dificultades) y oportunidades para la futura toma de decisiones.
