cooler oceans have more co-2 than warm oceans. we have 388 part pers million today. mr. barton: and we believe in the atlantic and pacific we are in a cooling period. something called p.s.o. and an a.m.o. or something. mr. linder: that's correct. they've been in a cooling period. we have now 3,400 instruments that go into the oceans. every 10 days they pop up and give the satellites information about what's on the instruments and there's been no warming in the oceans. mr. barton: i know it's dangerous for congressmen to actually think. we're not accused of doing that very often. but there are sometimes, some congressmen, you and i, i think, are two, not that others do, but -- not that others don't, but we actually think. i want to build on what you said. the ice core samples that you got the data that show temperature goes up, and then co-2 goes up. if temperature were to go down, then co-2 would go down. mr. linder: that's correct. temperatures go down, co-2 in the atmosphere goes up. mr. barton: we're in a situation -- mr. linder: i'm sorry, you're right. mr. barton: i

you also get stronger storms coming off the warmer oceans. south florida has had a bitter experience with these stronger storms. and the storms have faster winds and higher moisture content in the storms, so they are more destructive for both of those reasons. you also get a melting of the ice in all of the ice covered regions of the world. and in those places that depend on the seasonal melting of the snow and ice in the mountains for the drinking water and agricultural water, places like california, south america, europe, and most significant in terms of the number of people affected in the himalayas, you know, 40 percent of all the people who live on this planet now get 50 percent of their drinking water and agricultural water from the seasonal melting of the snow's and the eyes in the himalayas. and the seven great rivers of the ganges, the river and yellow river in china, they all originate in the same field of ice in the himalayas. and that ice is melting that snow is melting. in some of those areas, the flows in friezes temporary, but

there's of and supported like ocean assocation, things on a much longer timetable. i will be clear and this is an opinion of mind that most of what we try to do is based on a mix of science and economics and this is a little further. it is an opinion that is informed by the economics and science and the economics hasn't gotten nearly enough of a part of this debate that you can just think about benefits. you've got to think about the cost of the mitigation. and it's incredibly expensive. we still think a trillion dollars a lot. maybe with the bailout we don't. but a ton of money. >> guest: let me pretend to be ezra klein if i could borrow your brain for one minute he is this another case of economic imperialism? is this a case economists are saying climate science we think we can be helpful and apply models and a way of thinking about the problem in a way that can improve upon the current thinking. >> guest: as an economist i take the knowledge that is generated and why try to do is put that together with what we know in economics about what you do when things are o

that is what the issue of ocean acidification. this is the state of oceans today.it has nothing to do with u.k. research. our co2 goes into the atmosphere, paulson to the oceans and creates acid. that acid has made the ocean 30% more acidic than they were. the u.k. has nothing to do with this issue. this is a picture of a pteropod shell. these are very small creatures that form the base of the food chain. the oceans are becoming more acidic and it will be much more acidic at the end of the century what they did was took a pteropod and put it in water that is of the same as the attitude that it will be at the end of the century. in 15 days, it starts to lose some of its calcium carbonate. in 30 days it loses more ended in 40 days, it is just a pile of mush the reason i am showing you this is because this is a dirty little secret of climate change and co2 pollution. i hope that someone would write a headline that the oceans have the potential of dying and the food chain being disrupted and less -- i don't care if there was a communist plot in the u.k., i hope someone

so ultimately the democrats have to find a way to sort of turn this ocean liner in a better direction, you know, by the midterm point if they're going to have some traction. >> congressman, could i come back to you and actually pick up something that joe lockhart said about the tricks of the trade, if you look, going into an election, that somehow in this constantly changing battle of the last cycle the democrats nudged ahead in terms of their use of technology, use of the internet, mobilization and so on. what can we expect in the form of innovation from the republican party in the midterm? >> you know, daniel, i think probably the best place to look is in virginia and new jersey about a month ago in these gubernatorial electricses. i know in my home state of virginia, we far surpassed the get out the vote effort of the other side this time, and it

ocean acidification is a real issue. jeal engineering of itself would not address. with the idea is to coiffure if it becomes dangerously hot what can you do, because atmospheric carbon dioxide is the half way for the hundred years, so what's there is there. and we will probably keep contributing to the ideas of re-engineering range from the very environmentally friendly sounding ones like we getting more reflective oceanic clouds, clouds to a good job of claviers -- >> host: how do they do that? how to decorate the clouds? >> guest: one idea is kind of low friction house you can imagine by using a fleet of boats that don't have engines, kind of turbine's underwater driven by a wave power would literally kicked up salt spray. one of the reasons why clouds over the ocean are not as reflective as one might like them to if you are trying to cool the earth is there are not as many cloud condensation nuclei. we probably don't want to turn this into science but it's fascinating. again we are not climate scientists but try to learn as much as we can. cloud condensation nuc

it would be easy to claim responsibility if the wreckage was found as opposed to being lost in the ocean, let's say. those are theories floating around. investigators are being very tightlipped at this point in time, larry. >> larry: how do we know, jean, that it wasn't just this sick individual? >> we don't know know that for sure. that is, of course, what they are checking out. they are looking at computers, cell phones, any communications this guy might have had, trying to figure out, put the pieces together. i talked to a former government official familiar with aviation security, this is something this guy did not do on his own. he had a petn, a very volatile and very dangerous explosive. he knew where to sit to maximize the damage. he was over the fuel tanks. he was near the skin of the plane where the damage would have been the greatest. he had a cover story. he went to the bathroom for about 20 minutes according to the affidavit and came back to his seat saying he had a stomach ache. covered himself with a blanket. he had that cover story, he news to use the blanket, he spent tim

treasures of that ocean. they belong to you. and what the russians did was they planted a flag at the north pole claiming that the ridge ran up to the north pole and, therefore, russia ran up to the north pole and, therefore, all that underwater real estate belonged to them. that's being contested, and the argument against it was just planting a flag on the moon doesn't mean that we own the moon, although i suspect there are people who would like to argue that we do. it is, it is very contentious simply because countries are always contentious. and by the way, the antarctic was declared many, many years ago declared off limits for any kind of development. there's now a proposal being put forth suggesting that maybe that wasn't such a good idea, maybe we ought to allow mineral drilling in the antarctic. and there probably is a lot of stuff to be found in the antarctic, so people -- nations get greedy. and in the process of getting greedy, excuse me, in the process of getting greedy they are trampling not only

who ripped florida from spain and he, james monroe, who stretched america's frontiers to the pacific ocean. now back to the battle of trenton for a moment. as i said, monroe didn't cross the delaware in the same boat. he crossed earlier with a small squad that landed on the jersey shore to the north of trenton and circled behind the town washington landed with his troops on the riverside below the town. now what makes trenton so important is that the british had almost won the war by christmas of 1776. their troops had overarm long island, new york, westchester and most of new jersey. thousands of american troops had deserted and the british chased the remnants of washington's army across new jersey over the delaware and into pennsylvania. redcoats were in sight of the american capital philadelphia. congress fled to baltimore and began debating terms of capitulation to the british. the war was over. unless washington could come up with a miracle, and he chose a young college student, lieutenant general james monroe, to help make a miracle happened. they all crossed the delaware during a bl

one of the reasons why clouds over the ocean are not as reflective as one might like to do if you're trying to cool the earth is there are not as many cloud condensation nuclei. we probably don't want to turn this into the science. we try to learn as much as we could about. cloud condensation nuclei are sparser over the water then overland we'd have a lot of dust into one. so the idea, this is generated -- >> the clouds to build themselves around. >> and to make themselves into. the more dense they are generally the more reflective they are. the more reflective they are the more sunlight they reflect. >> and they are dark in color. to the more the sunlight bounces back up, and doesn't heat. so gently you want stuff that is like. >> and clouds are puffy and nice and reflective and do a good job of calling the earth. then there is a radically different sounding solution. that is easily the most frightening sounding at first, and we will surely be one of the most controversial ones. which is using sulfur dioxide, a kind of targeted application of sulfur dioxide sprayed into the stratosp

we landed on an rstrip where there was a crashed jet, and justcrub, you could see the ocean nearby, thean oan. very, very low buildings all sun-bleached andovered with st. there were armored personn carriers and troops awaing us on the airstrip. they belongeto the african union. they were ugandans. i was immediately hustleinto e of those a.p.c.s that had two chine gunners on turrets on top. and , within a few minutes, had assembled a long convoy th armored cars. >> reporter: and thiis the present. >>his is his arrival home. the was not a street left unguded. we thewent through a series of an-suicide bomber barriers, past me sentries, and into the gates of the villa somia, which is theresidential palace. that is the ly turf he controls. >> reporter: t president anderson accompaed is sheikh sharif ahmed-- w was himself once allied wi the "shabab". sinchis split with the group, the u.s. has lt financial and miliry support to hi government. this summer in kya, secretary of state clinton bece the most senior.s. official to meet the somalieader. not at long ago was considered a bad guy, rig?

imagine that you're looking at an ocean and you see lots of waves today and tomorrow you see a fewerumber of waves. it's not so turbulent. what you call a person actually is a pattern of behavior of a universal consciousness. there is no such thing as jeff because what we call jeff is a constantly transforming consciousness that appears as a certain personality, a certain mind, a certain ego, a certain body. you know, we had a different jeff when you were a teenager. we had a different jeff when you were a baby. which one of you is real jeff? if you go to heaven and meet your relatives, will you meet the person with alzheimer's who died at the age of 100 or meet the young teenager? there is no such thing in the deeper reality as a constant entity called a person. when he says 6,000 traffic jam, this that and the other, it's all nonsense. it's a primitive way of looking at it. >> michael, i have a question. why not believe? why are you focusing so much -- because if you're wrong -- >> because his neural networks will not allow him to. >> the question i'm getting at is -- >> bad for th

if he got to the city the atlantic ocean he would cut off the confederacy, cut off the confederacy in half. it would mean that general lee in virginia would have few sources of supply to keep his troops going just south of washington, d.c.. if he caught savanna, if he cut the south of savanna he would also make it impossible for one of the ports the british had been using to be used to further and savannah was also and 8-yard for the confederates. they have little ships left but the did have some in the port of savannah. to get to savannah meant moving troops 300 miles. they couldn't stay any way because there was nothing there. the union navy was off the coast. if he could get to the coast the union navy would help supply his troops. in the meantime they would have to live off of the land. the land between atlanta and savannah. he worked this all out. he sent telegrams before she cut off the telegraph lines to the department of agriculture in washington asking for information on the produce of the farms between atlanta and savannah so he could find out if there was enough to go on an

in there that i would like to be for, but i do not believe the republic is going to sink into the ocean if we would have a 1% or 2% increase in spending for these six bills. i don't believe that everything is going to collapse if we were to have a little frugality around here, give up some of our pork spending, give up some of our special projects and pro fuss on what is in the national interest for a change and try to contain the surging growth of spending, and i don't know when it's going to occur. everybody says we've got to stop, so when? i say now. i say let's send this bill back. let's don't pass this bill. let's send it back to the conferees and the appropriators and say come back with a bill that's more responsible, and then we'll pass them. we're not going to not pass legislation to fund these things. don't let anybody say that, but the question is what kind of increases can we justify, and i'm worried about it. the american people are worried about it. we assume congress needs to get worried about it. if not, we're going to have some new people in congress and some new people

so ultimately the democrats have to find a way to sort of turn this ocean liner in a better direction, you know, by the midterm point if they're going to have some traction. >> congressman, could i come back to you and actually pick up something that joe lockhart said about the tricks of the trade, if you look, going into an election, that somehow in this constantly changing battle of the last cycle the democrats nudged ahead in terms of their use of technology, use of the internet, mobilization and so on. what can we expect in the form of innovation from the republican party in the midterm? >> you know, daniel, i think probably the best place to look is in virginia and new jersey about a month ago in these gubernatorial electricses. i know in my home state of virginia, we far surpassed the get out the vote effort of the other side this time, and it came, from really, the energy now that has been focused on what's going on in washington coupled with a very disciplined, very good campaign led by our governor elect bob mcdonald. so i do think joe is correct, motivation of those out of p

leaders of the maldives-- a chain of islands in the indian ocean-- staged a cabinet meeting under water to emphasize fears of rising sea levels that could literally wash away their nation. nepal's cabinet took to the frigid heights of mount everest to declare the melting himalayan glaciers pose a threat to them. all this in the face of growing evidence from scientists that global warming risks more hurricanes, coastal flooding, disease and massive population migration. the best way to head that off, they argue, is by reducing the amount of carbon humans spew into the atmosphere. but because that entails costly changes in the forms of energy used, there's no guarantee the 192 countries meeting these two weeks will reach a deal. already, major players, including the u.s., have begun to stake out their positions in copenhagen. president obama has pledged to cut overall u.s. emissions by 17%, relative to 2005 levels, by 2020. today he met privately at the white house with business leaders and environmentalists with a stake in the outcome. >> there is a lot riding on this and i think there i

never really been a country that dominated an entire continent and positioned itself to dominate two oceans, to straddle an entire continent. and with the idea of texas, you know, we had the louisiana purchase, and now texas are moving us toward the pacific, and there was oregon territory up there which was jointly occupied by the british and the americans and that had to be settled somehow. and we had an opportunity to get a significant expanse of land up in the northwest. and then if we can just get that southern, southwestern part, california and those four states, utah, arizona, nevada, and new mexico, that would be a country of vast designs. and i think that what sean wilentz is saying here is that polk was the instrument of the sentiment that emerged, and i make it very clear that he emerged very powerfully in america, largely as a result of the annexation of texas. >> go back to, you say you're reading the newspaper articles and the diary, did you read the diary in printed form or in longhand form? >> no, i get too frustrated trying to read people who had the handwriting of people fr

it has to do with the events of the summer of 1968 and with teddy's love of the ocean and his love ofailing, and the fact that when he would be out in the ocean, especially at night, he would look for the north star. that is the truly magical time of sailing, as the north star appears. the norstar which has been the guiding star for all seamen three-time. the north star guide you through the evening. its light is the most definite thing you can see on the surface of the dark water. you have the north star and the sound as well as the shipping water. sometimes the fall will come in and you must go by the compass for a period, but you are all milk -- you are always waiting to see the north star again because it is the guide to the home port. the voice becomes all-inclusive. you are enveloped in the totality of it. your part of the beginning, part of the end, part of the ship, and part of the sea. i gaze at the knights die off and on those voyages and thought of bobby. -- i gazed at the night sky of and on those voyages and thought of bobby. >> you had the sense of foreboding he had abou
