Boulder's moral mission on greenhouse gases
2013-08-17 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Denver Post: Boulder has been gearing up this summer to wage perhaps the nation's most aggressive campaign to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, a campaign that officials suggest will last for decades. As it proceeds, the city will become a fascinating test of whether a community can achieve huge GHG reductions while remaining an attractive place for commerce and without imposing regulation so meddlesome and overreaching that it tramples on personal liberty. But surely, you protest, neither of these outcomes...

No Impact From Keystone on Greenhouse Gases
2013-08-08 09:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Washington Wire: Ever since President Barack Obama in June made (in a rather a Delphic fashion) climate change the key condition for approval of the Keystone XL pipeline, the arguments over the project have shifted from job creation and groundwater pollution to focus on greenhouse-gas emissions. Fresh analysis out from energy consultancy IHS Cera says the pipeline, which would carry Canadian tar sands crude from Alberta to Nebraska and eventually to the U.S. Gulf Coast, will not have any impact on GHG emissions....

Could greenhouse gases turn Earth into Venus?

Grist: How will the world end? A giant meteor? Zombie apocalypse? Death Star target practice!? One scientist thinks our planets death knell is going to be climate change, on an epic, terrifying scale but, fortunately, not the kind we need to worry about. The runaway greenhouse which is thought to have happened on Venus in the past is basically a climate change worst-case scenario: We reach a critical point where the atmosphere is so thick with greenhouse gases that no sunlight can escape back...
Researchers Take Closer Look at Link Between Permafrost Thaw and Greenhouse Gases
2013-07-29 21:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World News: In a new study published in the journal Nature Climate Change, researchers explain in greater detail than ever before how the thawing of the world's permafrost may result in a substantial release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and that crucial in predicting the overall effect of the process is the soil's water content. Knowing this, the researchers argue, may lead to more accurate climate models in the future. Permafrost, soil or rock that remains frozen all year round, occurs where...
