Climate Change and Lizards: Reproduction Strategy May Need to Change, Researchers Say
2015-10-27 22:03:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World: In an attempt to adjust to increasing climate temperatures, common lizards may start breeding more frequently but also start dying off at a younger age. To better understand retilian response to climate change, an international team of researchers closely examined how a warmer climate of just two-degrees celsius would affect populations of common lizards (Zootoca vivipara) over time. Since a reptile's body temperature depends directly on the atmospheric temperature, researchers predict that lizards...

The Impact Of Climate Change Is Even Worse Than You Realize

Refinery29: A breathtaking new video shows one stark reality of climate change: A huge portion of Greenland is literally melting away. The New York Times deployed a drone to capture the devastating effects of rising temperatures on the northern Atlantic nation. The drone's cameras rolled as it flew above part of Greenland's melting ice sheet. Scientists are using the footage to document and better understand just how quickly Greenland is melting. The result? Sweeping aerial views of deep blue rivers and...

Hill: More than 25 years ago, the Reagan administration acknowledged the importance of studying the greenhouse effect. In 1990, conservative icon Margaret Thatcher--speaking at the 2nd World Climate Conference--warned that climate change is real enough for us to make changes and sacrifices, so that we do not live at the expense of future generations. To hear these political giants call for climate action, as they do in this video, is to recognize that this issue is an inherently conservative one. ...
Climate change deal will not include global carbon price: UN climate chief

Reuters: A climate change deal to be agreed in Paris in December will not be able to come up with a global carbon price, the United Nations' climate chief, Christiana Figueres, said on Tuesday. Big multinational companies and investors, and most recently oil majors, have called for a global carbon price to help spur investments in low-carbon energy. A global carbon price would help to create an incentive for operators of power plants and factories to switch to cleaner fuels such as gas or to buy more...

Trudeau has all grounds to make striking plan on climate change

Globe and Mail: It wasn't his central campaign theme, but prime-minister-designate Justin Trudeau now has a window of opportunity to surprise the country with a big climate-change deal - not the one in Paris, but the one with the premiers, where the rubber really hits the road. That would be a potent political symbol for a leader who promised change. Over nine years of Stephen Harper's rule, Canadians got used to the idea that action on climate change is distant or elusive. Mr. Trudeau can go to global climate-change...
