Gulf Coast Hurricane Tracker

A single source reference on tropical weather predictions. With a traditional focus on the upper Texas and Louisiana Gulf Coast we've maintained links to track all Atlantic Basin, Caribbean and eastern Pacific storm systems. We are now expanding our view to tropical storms throughout the world intending to be a comprehensive global storm tracking resource.

How panic leads to bad actions

Stop global warming by shooting sulfur into the air???

We did this in the 1960's and 70's -- it's called pollution. It creates acid rain, increases asthma in children and the elderly, makes the skies above our cities look yellow and green and is very BAD!!!!

So now that we've finally cleaned up and continue to clean up the atmosphere, some so-called scientists claim that we should start polluting again just to stop something that is aprt of the natural variation of the planet's climate. I don't know if livescience is a spoof site or not but I sure hope so before the Al Gore's of the world start taking them seriously.
