Climate change may have wiped out mammoths

Agence France-Presse: A wide-ranging probe into woolly mammoths has added to evidence that the towering tusker was wiped out by climate change, scientists said on Wednesday. British and Swedish researchers sequenced DNA from 88 samples of mammoth bone, tooth and tusk, looking for a signature in the genetic code that is handed down on the maternal line. They used this telltale to build a family tree of mammoths spanning 200,000 years, across northern Eurasia and North America. They found two periods of big population...

Latest on Climate Change Debate and What it Means for Transportation

BBC: Researchers have found evidence to suggest that climate change, rather than humans, was the main factor that drove the woolly mammoth to extinction. A DNA analysis shows that the number of creatures began to decrease much earlier than previously thought as the world's climate changed. It also shows that there was a distinct population of mammoth in Europe that died out around 30,000 years ago. The results have published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B. The view many researchers...

Australia: Climate change will 'exacerbate existing problems': Defence
2013-09-11 00:57:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Australian Broadcasting Corporation: WHEN AUSTRALIAN professors Colin Butler, Tony McMichael and Will Steffen stood up to talk climate change at a series of briefings in Canberra earlier this year there was something very different about the audience. This wasn't a forum organised by an environment group where the seats are taken up by the usual cohort of the climate concerned. Instead, this audience was full of hardheaded military types and members of the defence community - people worried more about conflict and geopolitics than...
