LiveMint: he latest report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) shows that global emissions have gone up substantially despite policies to reduce climate change. It shows that the level of greenhouse gases has risen to an unprecedented high and emissions grew more quickly between 2000 and 2010 compared with each of the three previous decades.

UN calls for drastic action to stop climate change

Sydney Morning Herald: The world must take radical steps to combat climate change, and begin right away -- but if it does, the cost of a greener, healthier future will be surprisingly small. However if the world wishes to avoid ecological catastrophe, it will probably need new technologies that suck carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and bury it underground.

Reuters: A U.N. report about ways to fix global warming due on Sunday is likely to disappoint investors seeking clear-cut economic calculations about the benefits and costs of curbing rising greenhouse gas emissions. Authors say the report stops short of an economic bottom line since it is hard to put a value, for instance, on human lives lost to extreme weather or on risks of a faster melt of Greenland's ice sheet that would push up sea levels. The United States and other governments, at talks in Berlin,...
