Schools That Lead continue to refine their Teacher and Principal Leadership Initiatives to incorporate the lessons they have learned from the past three years, including being clearer about the development of an aim statement and theory of action, acknowledging the need to make room to do the improvement work, explicitly examining culture, paying attention to student feedback, starting small and moving slow, collecting and analyzing evidence to build warrant, and actively sharing the work — specifically the processes, results, and what worked and what did not work.

I have a bit of a theory about this, and I'd love to get some feedback or opinions about it.

Our new school approach is all about thinking differently, We've replaced the traditional ambiguous approach with an unique «geekiness», and focus on clear and engaging explanations, fun, safe surf sessions and analytical feedback, as well as video coaching and useful surf theory classes to help create the ultimate learn to surf environment for even the most accomplished surfers.

, set by a robust scientific theory of some sort, regarding the degree of change that we humans could bring about (given positive feedbacks) if we just continue «business as usual» for a long period of time.

In particular, she worries that climate models «involve a lot of theory and guesswork» about amplifying feedbacks that enhance the uncontested warming effect of CO2, which places her in the company of lukewarmists.

To point out just a couple of things: — oceans warming slower (or cooling slower) than lands on long - time trends is absolutely normal, because water is more difficult both to warm or to cool (I mean, we require both a bigger heat flow and more time); at the contrary, I see as a non-sense theory (made by some serrist, but don't know who) that oceans are storing up heat, and that suddenly they will release such heat as a positive feedback: or the water warms than no heat can be considered ad «stored» (we have no phase change inside oceans, so no latent heat) or oceans begin to release heat but in the same time they have to cool (because they are losing heat); so, I don't feel strange that in last years land temperatures for some series (NCDC and GISS) can be heating up while oceans are slightly cooling, but I feel strange that they are heating up so much to reverse global trend from slightly negative / stable to slightly positive; but, in the end, all this is not an evidence that lands» warming is led by UHI (but, this effect, I would not exclude it from having a small part in temperature trends for some regional area, but just small); both because, as writtend, it is normal to have waters warming slower than lands, and because lands» temperatures are often measured in a not so precise way (despite they continue to give us a global uncertainity in TT values which is barely the instrumental's one)-- but, to point out, HadCRU and MSU of last years (I mean always 2002 - 2006) follow much better waters» temperatures trend; — metropolis and larger cities temperature trends actually show an increase in UHI effect, but I think the sites are few, and the covered area is very small worldwide, so the global effect is very poor (but it still can be sensible for regional effects); but I would not run out a small warming trend for airport measurements due mainly to three things: increasing jet planes traffic, enlarging airports (then more buildings and more asphalt — if you follow motor sports, or simply live in a town / city, you will know how easy they get very warmer than air during day, and how much it can slow night - time cooling) and overall having airports nearer to cities (if not becoming an area inside the city after some decade of hurban growth, e.g. Milan - Linate); — I found no point about UHI in towns and villages; you will tell me they are not large cities; but, in comparison with 20-40-60 years ago when they were «countryside», many small towns and villages have become part of larger hurban areas (at least in Europe and Asia) so examining just larger cities would not be enough in my opinion to get a full view of UHI effect (still remembering that it has a small global effect: we can say many matters are due to UHI instead of GW, maybe even that a small part of measured GW is due to UHI, and that GW measurements are not so precise to make us able to make good analisyses and predictions, but not that GW is due to UHI).

So going back to the simplistic theory about increasing cloud cover being a major positive feedback.

It's all as it was in those happy carefree days of 2009 and before, BC (yes, Before Cli **** ga **) as we call it now, when the MSM would happily «highlight the most alarmist aspects and downplay any mention of uncertainty» (Zorita), when no doubts were allowed, or should I say expressed, about the holy trilogy of WG1, 2, and 3 — how certain it was that the well - accepted theory of ghg effect, and the impacts thereof, would lead to a Copenhagen / Kyoto utopia of global cooperation, and that the IPCC was cool (whoops, «the request for more research about the social dynamics of the IPCC, of positive feedbacks as described by Judith, is meaningful for me» (von Storch).)

This is a very important distinction, and one some proponents of AGW try to obscure, as to the extent they can confuse the status of their theories with classical greenhouse gas theory, they can divert attention away from the really critical questions about feedback, upon which AGW is based.

The model studies plus the theory of chemical feedbacks in the CH4 - CO-OH system (Prather, 1994) firmly established that the atmospheric lifetime of a perturbation (and hence climate impact and GWP) of CH4 emissions was about 50 % greater than reported in the FAR.
