Associated Press: The Obama administration is more certain than ever that global warming is changing Americans' daily lives and will worsen -- conclusions that scientists will detail in a massive federal report to be released Tuesday. Once people thought global warming was more in the future and more of an issue in other parts of the world, but the National Climate Assessment will emphasize how the United States is already paying the multibillion-dollar price for man-made climate change, said study co-author Donald...

Dire UN Climate Reports Raise Questions About Global Willpower

National Geographic: Granted, if you focus on the surface temperature record the rate of warming since 1998 has been slower than the period from 1975 to 1998, particularly if you simply omit the Arctic where the world is warming the fastest (as the Hadley temperature record has done in the past), but looking at the climate system as a whole, particularly if one includes the oceans which are our greatest heat reservoir, warming has actually accelerated. However, once you take into account natural variability (principally,...

New James Cameron series paints dire picture of what's to come if climate change is ignored

As Dire as It Sounds, IPCC Report Is an Understatement

Earth Island Journal: There are two things to keep in mind if you would know the climate future. The first is that, as scientific statesman John Holdren likes to say, it will come to us as a mixture of mitigation, adaptation, and suffering. The second is that the suffering will be disproportionally visited upon the poor and the innocent. Hold these thoughts when considering the massive tome just issued by the IPCCs Working Group II. (The much briefer Summary for Policymakers, or SPM, is here). Working Group II (or WG2...

International Business Times: Climate scientists have predicted that Australia will get hotter in the latest UN climate change report. The Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change draft report has a significant impact to Australia. According to the draft, Australia is exposed to potential environmental risks. According to the UN climate change report, the world will become 2 degrees Celsius warmer. This may cause the wipeout of entire ecosystems. The rise in global temperature would mean the potential widespread and permanent...
