Curb climate change or lose bumblebees, blueberries, tomatoes

Mongabay: According to a comprehensive new study published in the journal Science, bumblebees are particularly vulnerable to climate change disruptions. Historical bumblebee ranges have shrunk on their extreme southern edge, while species to the north fail to adapt with any significant migration into cooler regions. Climate change appears to contribute, distinctively, and consistently, to range compression of bumblebee species across both North America and Europe, the authors state. The five-year-long...

Bumblebees Decimated by Climate Change: Study
2015-07-13 19:23:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Discovery: All bees -- all pollinators, actually -- are under stress these days, but bumblebees are especially affected by climate change, according to a new study. Other species are mitigating the effects of warming by expanding their territories northward, but not bumblebees, found the study, published in Science. In fact, bumblebees appear to be contracting their territories. One of the important things to me was how many species are being impacted by climate change. That was a bit of a surprise,...

Climate change may lengthen flight times
2015-07-13 17:10:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Science: By the end of this century, changes in wind patterns triggered by climate change will make round-trip flights between Hawaii and the West Coast last a little longer--and pollute a bit more, a new study suggests. When researchers scrutinized flight data for four major airlines along routes between Honolulu and three airports on the U.S. mainland (Los Angeles, shown in image; Seattle-Tacoma; and San Francisco) from 1995 to 2013, they found that takeoff-to-touchdown flight times were substantially influenced...

Speedy study claims climate change doubled chances of European heatwave
2015-07-13 16:51:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature: Over much of Europe, the sweltering heatwave of late June and early July has barely subsided. But already, scientists have analysed the possible role of climate change, concluding that global warming made such an event at least twice as likely over much of the continent. In some cities, climate change has made comparable heatwaves four times more likely, they say. The speedy study comes from a collaboration involving the US-based nonprofit environmental news organization Climate Central and an...

Koch Brothers Influence Preventing Chris Christie From Acting on Climate Change?

EcoWatch: Real. Honest. Direct. Tell It Like It Is. Those were the words on a banner at a recent campaign event by New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie. Christie is one of the latest entrants in the crowded 2016 presidential field, and political observers say that hes trying to distinguish himself by telling voters the truth, even when its tough to hear. The trouble is, Christie doesnt seem willing to tell the truth when it comes to climate action, clean energy and the environment. Denying Need to Act Where...
