CO2 Emissions Expected to Rise Significantly by 2030
2013-01-26 15:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: Warnings that the world is headed for "peak oil" -- when oil supplies decline after reaching the highest rates of extraction -- appear "increasingly groundless," BP's chief executive said. Bob Dudley's remarks came as the company published a study predicting oil production will increase substantially, and that unconventional and high-carbon oil will make up all of the increase in global oil supply to the end of this decade, with the explosive growth of shale oil in the U.S. behind much of the...

Norwegian Sea can hold 100 years of Norway's CO2 emissions: NPD
2013-01-25 12:28:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Norway could store 100 times its annual emissions of carbon dioxide under the Norwegian Sea to help fight climate change, adding to its even bigger potential under the North Sea, an official report showed on Friday. The findings are most relevant for natural gas finds such as the Sleipner field in the North Sea, where the gas contains high levels of carbon dioxide. Norway has imposed taxes on carbon emissions since 1991 as part of efforts to limit climate change. An atlas by the Norwegian...

Australian coal mining threatens CO2 target
2013-01-23 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Age: The forecast expansion of Australian coal mining and exports would be the world's second-largest contributor of new carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels if fully realised, research by Greenpeace International has found. An analysis of the planet's 14 largest proposed, coal, oil and gas developments - to be released on Wednesday by Greenpeace - finds if Australian coal production expands as projected, the mining, production and burning of the extra resources would by 2020 result in 759 million...

Warmer soils release additional CO2 into atmosphere; Effect stabilizes over longer term
2013-01-20 22:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Warmer temperatures due to climate change could cause soils to release additional carbon into the atmosphere, thereby enhancing climate change - but that effect diminishes over the long term, finds a new study in the journal Nature Climate Change. The study, from UNH professor Serita Frey and co-authors from the University of California-Davis and the Marine Biological Laboratory, sheds new light on how soil microorganisms respond to temperature and could improve predictions of how climate warming...
