Carbon stored in worlds soils more vulnerable to climate change than expected

ScienceDaily: The response of soil microbial communities to changes in temperature increases the potential for more carbon dioxide to be released from the world's soils as global temperatures rise, scientists have revealed. The potential for global warming to stimulate decomposition rates in soils, and thus release large quantities of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, has long been considered to be one of the potentially most important positive feedbacks to climate change. However, the results from more recent...

Guardian: Scientists are doing the public a disservice in their attempts to communicate certainty in climate change science, often giving a false sense of debate by being overly precise, says broadcaster and physicist Professor Brian Cox. Climate scientists are 95% certain that humans are the main cause of the current global warming the world is experiencing. But Cox said this level of accuracy had been manipulated by nonsensical, politically-motivated climate sceptics. I think we do a disservice...

Times Union: New York needs to do more to prepare for ongoing man-made climate change, according to a report issued Tuesday by Attorney General Eric Schneiderman. Speaking at Pace University in Westchester County, the attorney general also pulled together scientific studies that project extreme storms and rain will become more common in coming years as a consequence of a warming global atmosphere. "The extreme weather events that have been overwhelming our communities, damaging critical infrastructure and...
