Biggest Climate Threat You Never Heard of Is Stronger Than CO2
2015-10-30 10:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Bloomberg: The biggest global warming battle youve never heard of kicks off in Dubai this weekend. Climate negotiators from across the globe will gather in the Persian Gulf city to debate how to get rid of hydrofluorocarbons -- a class of hundreds of artificial chemicals used in refrigerators, air-conditioners, fire suppressants and other widely used products. While less common than greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide or methane, HFCs can be thousands of times more potent, pound for pound, at heating up...

El Nio Could Push CO2 Permanently Above Milestone
2015-10-28 16:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate Central: El Nio has its fingers in a lot of pies this year: Not only is it helping to boost 2015 toward the warmest year on record, but it is also a major factor in blockbuster hurricane activity in the Pacific and is contributing to a major worldwide coral die-off. By this time next year we'll probably be able to add another effect to that list: This El Nio is likely to tip us over into a world with carbon dioxide concentrations permanently above 400 parts per million. "Will daily values at Mauna...

Poland's president vetos amendment to Kyoto protocol on CO2 emissions
2015-10-28 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Poland's president has vetoed an amendment to the Kyoto protocol on CO2 emissions that extends the deadline for compliance because he believes the country needs more time to analyze its impact on the economy, his office said on Tuesday. The Kyoto protocol, signed in 1997, imposed on all signatory countries an obligation to cut their carbon dioxide emissions by at least 5 percent in the period 2008-2012 versus 1990. The 2012 Doha amendment extended the deadline by 2020. Poland has already...

Elevated CO2 Levels Directly Affect Human Cognition, New Harvard Study Shows
2015-10-27 03:22:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ThinkProgress: In a landmark public health finding, a new study from the Harvard School of Public Health finds that carbon dioxide (CO2) has a direct and negative impact on human cognition and decision-making. These impacts have been observed at CO2 levels that most Americans - and their children - are routinely exposed to today inside classrooms, offices, homes, planes, and cars. Carbon dioxide levels are inevitably higher indoors than the baseline set by the outdoor air used for ventilation, a baseline that...
