Climate change 're-writing' face of UK wildlife, study warns

Plymouth Herald: Britain's wildlife calendar is and will continue to be rewritten by climate change - something which could result in disruptive consequences for both plants and animals - a new study is warning. Researchers from the UK's Centre for Ecology & Hydrology have discovered that seasonal events -such as the timing of flowering in plants and breeding in birds - are generally more sensitive to temperature change, than to changes in rain and snowfall. According to the findings, published in journal Nature,...

Climate Change Will Damage Penguin Populations By 60% This Century
2016-07-03 12:43:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
HNGN: Climate change is affecting Antarctica's penguin population, which is reducing rapidly, especially in regions where the impact of global warming is felt the most. The population is expected to plummet by 60 percent at the end of this century. The main reason for their plummeting population is the warming of sea water. Even though the penguins cannot survive extremely cold temperatures, the warmer places too cannot let them live, explain experts, relying on global climate model projections and...

The Window for Avoiding a Dangerous Climate Change Has Closed
2016-07-03 12:10:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Gizmodo: Barring some incredible new carbon capture technology, the window for limiting global warming to less than 1.5 degrees Celsius appears to have closed. Thats the stark conclusion of a report out in Nature today, which finds that the carbon reductions pledges penned into the Paris Agreement are ridiculously inadequate for keeping our climate within a safe and stable boundary. The Paris Agreement--a historic piece of climate change policy adopted by leaders of 195 countries last December--pledged...

Facing Climate Change
2016-07-03 06:33:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
LA Progressive: Jeffrey Kiehl brings unique qualifications to this unusual book: a senior scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, he is also a Jungian analyst and a practicing Buddhist. While he argues that the science on human-caused climate change is unassailable, he is troubled by the unwillingness of many to believe it, and to act accordingly to put the brakes on greenhouse gas emissions. His primary tool for understanding this human perversity is Jungian psychology. We each have within...

Temperature-Induced Sex Change Could Drive This Species to Extinction

EcoWatch: Increasing temperatures due to climate change is altering the demographics of the central bearded dragon population and possibly sending the species into extinction. Like a lot of reptiles, Discovery News said, the gender of central bearded dragons depends on their chromosomes and the temperature at which the eggs are incubated. The egg is born a female when incubated at higher temperatures. Increasing global temperatures could skyrocket the number of female central bearded dragons in the future,...
