2015-05-26 06:14:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Dissident Voice: Unless you are a new arrival from another planet, you have probably heard or read at least one of the following claims (among other possibilities): Global warming is occurring--or, conversely, is not occurring. (Presidential candidate Ted Cruz has, for example, referred to global warming believers as alarmists, and has compared people who think that the climate is warming to flat-Earthers and described himself as a modern-day Galileo in an interview with the Texas Tribune.)

"Climate change is the single biggest long-term risk to the reef," Reichelt told a parliamentary inquiry hearing, days before United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization makes a decision on whether the reef will be placed on the "endangered list," as quoted by Financial Review....

How global warming make forests shorter and scrubbier

Christian Science Monitor: As global warming progresses, look for increasing expanses of majestic forests worldwide to become short and scrubby. That is the implication of a new study that applies a well-established principle of fluid flow to the inner workings of vegetation. The analysis doesn't attempt to specify timing or specific locations where such shifts in vegetation would occur. Instead, it uses the principle known as Darcy's law to explore the general types of vegetation most likely and least likely to survive...

Cold-blooded species face wipeout as cannot cope global warming, study says
2015-05-20 00:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Independent: Many lizard and insect species could be completely wiped out by global warming because they cannot evolve quickly enough to deal with rising temperatures, a new report warns. Climate change threatens to wreak havoc on cold-blooded animals known as ectotherms because they cannot regulate their own body temperatures. Being particularly sensitive to their surrounding environment, these creatures can only tolerate temperatures just a few degrees above their normal range before they overheat and...
