Climate Experts Working To Track Emission Levels Of World's Largest Cities
2013-05-13 13:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RedOrbit: Scientists from across the globe are joining forces to track the carbon footprints of some of the worlds largest cities, hoping to determine whether or not emissions standards in various regions are being met. According to Associated Press (AP) reporter Alicia Chang, the efforts are being focused on cities like Paris and Los Angeles, which are home to more than 10 million residents. In recent years, she said, these metropolises have become more and more responsible for man-made global warming....

Life on Earth under threat from CO2 levels, say scientists
2013-05-12 19:40:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Independent: There will be a dramatic global decline in the number of animal and plant species this century if the world continues to procrastinate over measures to cut carbon dioxide emissions to limit climate change, a study has found. Current CO2 emissions are currently tracking on the highest trajectory envisaged by climate scientists. That means if nothing is done to reduce emissions significantly over the coming decades, over half of common plants and one-third of the animals could see a serious decline,...
Carbon Dioxide Levels Surpass 400 PPM Levels For First Time
2013-05-12 16:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RedOrbit: Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have surpassed 400 parts per million (ppm) for the first time in human history, according to data released by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). According to USA Todays Doyle Rice, NOAA data revealed on Friday the average CO2 levels at the Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii over the past five days were 400.03 ppm. Those readings are important because the Mauna Loa Observatory is the oldest continuous carbon dioxide (CO2) measurement...
Dont Panic, But Carbon Dioxide Levels Are the Worst Theyve Been in Human History

Take Part: The Mauna Loa Observatory sits atop a hillside on the big island of Hawaii. And while that sounds as if it must be a place of calm and tranquility, on May 10, it became the worlds messenger of doom. Using its tracking equipment, the observatory recorded that the average amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere exceeded 400 parts per million (ppm) for the first time in 55 years of measurement--and quite probably the last 3 million years of Earths existence. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the primary...
