Britain on Ice

The Oil Drum consistently has articles for the science minded that are quite thorough and thought provoking. And not just about oil.

There is a new post up on Global Warming. It's quite detailed so I won't even try to break it down. Go read it for details of some nice research on the Gulf Stream and how it's changing due to global warming.

The short version? The course of the Gulf Stream is diverting further south meaning warmer tropical waters and a new ice age in England. And warmer tropics mean more hurricanes!

Swell.
