Climate change plan: thinktank suggests policy both sides of politics can embrace

Guardian: A climate change policy that could be both effective, and potentially supported by both major parties, has been proposed by the Grattan Institute in a new report that tries to find a pragmatic solution to the decade of toxic political debates on the issue. Media reports have emerged suggesting Labor would adopt a policy of opening an inquiry into Australias energy industry, and shutting down the oldest and dirtiest power stations to lower emissions and create more demand for renewable energy....

Philip Gregory, who represents the plaintiffs, said in a statement that the decision is "one of the most significant in our nation's history". It says the government is permitting, encouraging, and otherwise enabling continued exploitation, production,...
Clouds won't slow climate change: NASA survey finds their cooling effects have been overstated

Salon: To some, clouds resemble bunnies. To others, they can look like squished flowers. When scientists used NASA data to peer into clouds, what they saw resembled a hazard sign warning of a fast-deteriorating climate ahead. Analysis of the first seven years of data from a NASA cloud-monitoring mission suggests clouds are doing less to slow the warming of the planet than previously thought, and that temperatures may rise faster than expected as greenhouse gas pollution worsens--perhaps 25 percent faster....

Is climate change making the Earth's axis tilt?

Christian Science Monitor: The Earths axis is shifting, and scientists now think they have deeper insight into the causes. While previous work has considered the impact of Greenlands melting ice sheet, this latest study, published Friday in the journal Science Advances, also considers Antarcticas ice sheet and changes in global hydrology. One of the most important implications of this work is in testing climate change models, looking back at decades of data to see whether dramatic changes such as the loss of Greenlands...
