'Best estimate' for impact of melting ice on sea level rise
2013-05-15 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
BBC: Researchers have published their most advanced calculation for the likely impact of melting ice on global sea levels. The EU-funded team says the ice sheets and glaciers could add 36.8cm to the oceans by 2100. Adding in other factors, sea levels could rise by up to 69cm, higher than previous predictions. The researchers say there is a very small chance that the seas around Britain could rise by a metre. The last Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report was highly detailed...
Mills: EPA cuts estimate on leaks from gas operations

Times Record News: The Environmental Protection Agency has dramatically lowered its estimate of amount of the potential heat-trapping gas leaks come from natural gas production. It is great news for natural gas producers, consumers, and the environment. The EPAs study on greenhouse emissions shows an average annual decrease of 41.6 million metric tons of methane emissions from 1990 through 2010, or more than 850 million metric tons overall or a 20 percent reduction from previous estimates. The agency converts the...

Astronomers estimate 100 billion habitable Earth-like planets in the Milky Way, 50 sextillion in the universe
2013-04-04 16:23:22| Extremetech
Astronomers at the University of Auckland claim that there are actually around 100 billion habitable, Earth-like planets in the Milky Way. There are roughly 500 billion galaxies in the universe, meaning there is somewhere in the region of 50,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 habitable planets. I'll leave you to do the math on whether one of those 50 sextillion planets has the right conditions for nurturing life or not.
