HNGN: Climate change is affecting Antarctica's penguin population, which is reducing rapidly, especially in regions where the impact of global warming is felt the most. The population is expected to plummet by 60 percent at the end of this century. The main reason for their plummeting population is the warming of sea water. Even though the penguins cannot survive extremely cold temperatures, the warmer places too cannot let them live, explain experts, relying on global climate model projections and...

Facing Climate Change

LA Progressive: Jeffrey Kiehl brings unique qualifications to this unusual book: a senior scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, he is also a Jungian analyst and a practicing Buddhist. While he argues that the science on human-caused climate change is unassailable, he is troubled by the unwillingness of many to believe it, and to act accordingly to put the brakes on greenhouse gas emissions. His primary tool for understanding this human perversity is Jungian psychology. We each have within...

Thanks to climate change, for better or worse, the Arctic is turning green

Washington Post: In June, NASA scientists provided a visualization of a startling climate change trend the Earth is getting greener, as viewed from space, especially in its rapidly warming northern regions. And this is presumably occurring as more carbon dioxide in the air, along with warmer temperatures and longer growing seasons, makes plants very, very happy. Now, new research in Nature Climate Change not only reinforces the reality of this trend which is already provoking debate about the overall climate...

Dawn: Once again, Pakistan is on the list of most affected countries from climate change. Verisk Maplecroft, a UK-based global risk consulting firm, has ranked Pakistan 22nd in the Climate Change Vulnerability Index 2016 (CCVI); three of its cities are among the 69 considered most at risk from climate change including Lahore (on 7th place), Faisalabad (22nd) and Karachi (25th). While Pakistan was one of more than 170 countries that ratified the Paris Climate Agreement on April 22, which aims to limit...

Report: climate change will make wildfires worse

Daily Spectrum: A rash of wildfires have burned across parts of the southwestern U.S. at an alarming frequency early in the 2016 fire season, and a new report suggests climate change is partly to blame. There are now more large fires burning across the region than at any time in the past 40 years, and the area being burned has increased as well, according to a report by Climate Central, a nonprofit organization of scientists. Since 2010, Utah has seen an average of more than 40,000 more acres burning each...
