Washington Post: In a convincing new study conducted in Uganda and based on a program sponsored in part by its government, a team of researchers have found an effective and affordable way to combat deforestation in a country showing some of the fastest tree loss rates in the world. How? The program simply paid owners of forest land not to cut down their own trees for either agricultural purposes or to sell them for timber.

CERN's Cloud experiment provide clues to better climate predictions
2016-05-28 00:38:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
DNA India: Scientists have uncovered the processes behind the formation and evolution of small atmospheric particles free from the influence of pollution, that can help create accurate models to predict global climate change. Clouds and aerosols - small airborne particles that can become the seeds upon which clouds form - are essential to climate predictions because they reflect sunlight back into space. Reflecting light away from Earth can have a cooling effect, masking some of the warming caused by...
