New report shows green biofuels made from palm oil accelerating climate change
2013-02-02 01:41:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Bangor University: Growing oil palm to make green biofuels in the tropics could be accelerating the effects of climate change, say scientists. Researchers from Bangor University found the creation of oil palm plantations are releasing prehistoric sources of carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere. The findings throw into doubt hopes that biofuels grown in the tropics could help cut greenhouse gas emissions. Working as part of an international team, the north Wales scientists looked at how the deforestation...

Palm oil, paper, biofuels production on peatlands drive large GHG emissions
2013-01-31 23:44:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Mongabay: Degradation of peat swamps for oil palm and timber plantations is a substantially larger source of greenhouse gas emissions than previously believed, finds a new study published in the journal Nature. An international team of researchers tested the water chemistry of channels draining peatlands in Malaysia and Indonesia. They found high levels of "ancient" carbon, indicating that peat swamp degradation releases carbon that has been locked away for thousands of years. Much of the carbon eventually...

Study: Growing Palm Oil Could Speed Climate Change
2013-01-30 20:07:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Growing palm oil trees to make biofuels could be accelerating the effects of climate change, new research showed on Wednesday, adding further weight to claims the crop is not environmentally sustainable. In a paper published in the journal Nature, an international team of scientists examined how the deforestation of peat swamps in Malaysia to make way for palm oil trees is releasing carbon which has been locked away for thousands of years. Microbes then penetrate the carbon and the harmful greenhouse...
