Warming of Southern Hemisphere oceans underestimated
2014-10-07 04:17:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Asia News International: Scientists have revealed that until recent improvements occurred in the observational system in the early 21st century, Southern Hemisphere ocean heat content changes were likely underestimated. Lawrence Livermore scientists used a fleet of miniature research vessels (Argo), the global flotilla of more than 3,600 robotic profiling floats, that point towards heating of the upper layers of the world's ocean currents. The team found that the 3,600 Argo floats currently observing the global oceans,...

Role energy efficiency greatly underestimated, says energy body
2014-09-10 13:15:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Blue and Green: The International Energy Agency (IEA) has said that energy efficiency has the potential to boost economic growth and sustainable development and not only reduce energy demand, as it is often suggested. The so-called hidden fuel is significantly undervalued, according to IEA, which has argued in a new report Capturing the Multiple Benefits of Energy Efficiency that energy efficiency can be an engine for growth. The organisation notes that under current regulation, two-thirds of the economically...

Climate Effects of Keystone XL Pipeline Significantly Underestimated, Study Finds
2014-08-11 20:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Yale Environment 360: The U.S. State Department's final environmental review of the Keystone XL Pipeline may have underestimated carbon dioxide emissions associated with the pipeline by as much as four times, according to a new study published in Nature Climate Change. The addition of Keystone XL crude oil to the market will drive global oil prices down, the authors say, which in turn will increase demand for oil worldwide by as much as 0.6 barrels for every barrel of Keystone XL oil added to the market. The extra oil...

Oil pipeline impact may be underestimated
2014-08-10 18:25:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature: The proposed Keystone XL oil pipeline could significantly increase greenhouse-gas emissions, suggests an analysis published on 10 June in Nature Climate Change1. The pipeline would carry as many as 830,000 barrels of crude oil per day from the tar sands of western Canada to the midwestern United States, where it would connect to existing pipelines that run to the Gulf of Mexico. The economic model used in the study suggests that this additional supply would lower oil prices and drive consumption,...
