    Description: Schellnhuber (1) proposed some well-known solutions to the climate problem:i) Phasing out of CO2 in the next decadesii) Energy efficiencyiii) Emission reductioniv) Systematic decarbonationv) Efficiency and renewablesThese suggestions are commendable, but their suggested time scheme lacks realism. The emerging economies (China, India, and Brazil) want to develop their economies and raise the standard of living. A prerequisite is access to abundant and cheap energy. They want to realize their objectives by using their large coal reserves.The climate problem can be solved by removing CO2 from the atmosphere. House et al. (2) state that capturing CO2 from the air costs around...

    Description: In their paper in PNAS, Rose et al. (1) applied a statistical model to estimate hurricane wind losses to wind turbines over a 20-y typical wind farm lifetime. They combined a county annual landfall frequency probability density function with a generalized extreme value (GEV) fit of maximum wind speeds to model the expected 20-y losses attributable to hurricane activity at four hypothetical offshore wind farm sites.We found one error and three major flaws in this approach, which lead to an order of magnitude overestimation of risk:i) The GEV fit parameters used by Rose et al. (1) can only be reproduced...
