Research confirms how global warming links carbon emissions
2014-12-01 21:46:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Research has identified, for the first time, how global warming is related to the amount of carbon emitted. A team of researchers from the universities of Southampton, Bristol and Liverpool have derived the first theoretical equation to demonstrate that global warming is a direct result of the build-up of carbon emissions since the late 1800s when human-made carbon emissions began. The results are in accord with previous data from climate models. The theoretical equation reveals the complex...

Just how bad global warming is for world polar bear population
2014-11-27 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Washington Post: As the erstwhile icon of climate change, polar bears have been a very political subject. Conservatives love to lambaste Al Gore over his claims about drowning polar bears in his 2006 film An Inconvenient Truth. The Department of the Interior even launched an investigation into a U.S. researcher who had authored a 2006 study describing several polar bear drownings (he later reached a $ 100,000 settlement with the agency). Meanwhile, politics aside, the habitat in which polar bears live -- the...

India's coal rush threatens to make global warming irreversible

Brisbane Times: Decades of strip mining have left this town in the heart of India's coal fields a fiery moonscape, with mountains of black slag, sulfurous air and sickened residents. But rather than reclaim these hills or rethink their exploitation, the government is digging deeper in a coal rush that could push the world into irreversible climate change and make India's cities, already among the world's most polluted, even more unlivable, scientists say. "If India goes deeper and deeper into coal, we're all...

Report: Global warming could undercut efforts eradicate poverty
2014-11-24 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Al Jazeera: Climate change could undermine efforts to defeat extreme poverty around the globe, the World Bank warned Sunday. In a new report on the impact of global warming, the bank said sharp temperature rises would cut deeply into crop yields and water supplies in many areas and possibly set back efforts to bring populations out of poverty. "Climate change poses a substantial and escalating risk to development progress that could undermine global efforts to eliminate extreme poverty and promote shared...
