Scientific American: Recently the United Nations warned that the world could suffer a 40 percent shortfall in water by 2030 unless countries dramatically cut consumption. Since 70 percent of the worlds fresh water goes to agriculture, this means changing the way people farm. The need is ubiquitous. In Californias Central Valley, farmers drilling for water are now tapping stores 30,000 years old. In Kenya, which is facing the worst drought since 2000, farmers are hand-digging wells to reach the receding water table,...

Species in South America, Australia and New Zealand are most at risk, since many live in small areas or cannot easily move away to adapt to heatwaves, droughts, floods or rising seas, said the report in the journal Science. The study averaged out 131 previous studies of climate change, whose projections...
Climate change could eventually claim a sixth of the world's species

Science: Up to one-sixth of the species on Earth could disappear if climate change remains on its current course, according to a new analysis of more than 100 smaller studies. All the studies are in pretty good agreement: The more warming we have, the more species well lose, says Dov Sax, a conservation biologist at Brown University who was not involved in the work. This is really important to know, from a policy viewpoint. Industrial emissions of carbon dioxide and other planet-warming greenhouse...
