PRI: Dabo Guan, a professor of economics at the University of East Anglia, says despite Chinas pledge, rapid economic growth in China means carbon emissions will still keep rising. Carbon intensity is not an absolute measure, its a relative measure. Its CO2 divided by GDP," Guan explains. "So there are two ways to reduce this figure: one way is to actually reduce CO2; the other way is to enlarge GDP. Reducing CO2 requires expensive technological improvements and takes a long time. So most of...

Global Warming: Plants Absorbing More CO2 Than We Thought
2014-10-14 20:06:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World: Global warming may be slightly less devastating to the Earth than feared, as new research has found that plants can absorb more carbon dioxide than we previously thought. Climate models have grossly underestimated the power of our plants because they failed to take into account that when carbon dioxide (CO2) builds up in the atmosphere, plants actually thrive, become larger, and are able to soak up more CO2. As part of photosynthesis - a natural cycle that helps plants convert sunlight into energy...

The only solution for polar bears: 'stop the rise in CO2 and other greenhouse gases'

Mongabay: In 1773, an expedition headed by Constantine John Phipps, the Second Baron Mulgrave, embarked on a dangerous journey North-to see how far they could go before having to turn back. In his report at the end of the exploratory voyage, he notes that every precaution was taken to ensure a successful voyage-extra clothing on board for when "the higher latitudes" were reached, spirits for use by the sick, and life boats designed to carry the crew of both ships, should one be lost. Along the way, Phipps...
