The 'sunshades' created by plants that are helping to slow climate change
2013-04-29 12:35:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Daily Mail: Plants help to slow climate change by emitting gases that form of clouds, creating a 'sunshade' over the planet, scientists have discovered. The tiny sun-dimming effect could offset about one percent of warming worldwide and up to 30 percent locally such as over vast northern forests in Siberia, Canada or the Nordic nations, they wrote in the journal Nature Geoscience. While proportionally small, some scientists said the study provided further evidence of the importance of protecting forests,...
Plants slow climate change by forming cloud sunshade, study finds

Reuters: Plants help to slow climate change by emitting gases as temperatures rise that lead to the formation of a sunshade of clouds over the planet, scientists said on Sunday. The tiny sun-dimming effect could offset about one per cent of warming worldwide and up to 30 per cent locally such as over vast northern forests in Siberia, Canada or the Nordic nations, they wrote in the journal Nature Geoscience. While proportionally small, some scientists said the study provided further evidence of the importance...

Plants help slow warming - but there's a trade-off
2013-04-28 19:10:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
New Scientist: The fragrant smell of the trees is one of the nicest things about taking a walk in the woods. But the organic compounds trees pump out don't just register well with our noses: they also help cool the climate by encouraging clouds to form. As plants respire, they emit chemicals called volatile organic compounds. In the atmosphere, these VOCs can interact with other chemicals to form particle "seeds" that clouds can grow around. Climate models predict that the clouds seeded by plant respiration...
