Associated Press: New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Thursday joined government leaders worldwide in signing an agreement to help combat global warming and keep the Earth's average temperature from rising dangerously. The Under Two MOU, a memorandum of understanding signed by more than three dozen government leaders, affirmed New York's commitment to helping keep the Earth's average temperature from rising more than 2 degrees Celsius and committed the state to working to reduce greenhouse gas emissions about 40 percent...
Climate pledges by 140 countries will limit global warming not enough

Reuters: Plans submitted by 140 nations to limit their greenhouse gases would go some way towards tackling climate change, but not enough to prevent the planet from warming by well over 2C compared to pre-industrial times, experts say. The plans by countries from Albania to Zimbabwe, led by top emitters China and the United States, were submitted by an informal United Nations deadline on Thursday as building blocks towards a climate accord that negotiators will try to clinch at a summit in Paris in December....
Study: Global warming, evolution are clipping bees' tongues

Associated Press: Global warming and evolution are reshaping the bodies of some American bumblebees, a new study finds. The tongues of two Rocky Mountains species of bumblebees are about one-quarter shorter than they were 40 years ago, evolving that way because climate change altered the buffet of wildflowers they normally feed from, according to a study published Thursday in the journal Science. In one of these species, the tongue had been half the size of the bee's body the equivalent of a human tongue going...

Global Warming Hiatus Never Happened, Scientists Say

EcoWatch: Global warming has not slowed. The so-called hiatus remains just that--so-called. The world is warming as predicted and any apparent evidence that it is not doing so is a statistical illusion, according to U.S. scientists. They report in the journal Climatic Change that they applied rigorous, comprehensive, statistical analysis to the global temperature data and came up with this unequivocal conclusion. And although normally scientists like to spell out the caveats, the margins of error and...

Global warming pause never happened, scientists say
2015-09-18 14:49:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Washington Post: The climate science sphere has been wrapped up in a major debate for the past several years: over the global warming pause. But now, a growing body of research has some scientists saying that the case may, in fact, be closed. Theyre arguing that the pause never existed. The notion of a global warming pause, or climate hiatus, suggests that the rising of global surface temperatures has significantly slowed or even stopped during the past 15 years. The idea, which experts believe cropped up...
