Conversation: Dire warnings of imminent human-induced climate disaster are constantly in the news but predictions of the end of the world have been made throughout history and have never yet come true. Even in the brief period of recorded history, natural climate change has always been with us whether it is the volcanically induced crop failures that helped precipitate the French Revolution or the Medieval Warm Period that allowed Vikings to colonise Greenland. So how can we trust that the computer models scientists...

Desert Sun: Increasing temperatures are having a slow but dramatic affect on plants, animals and people in the Coachella Valley and surrounding areas. As part of a three-part series on climate change, a Desert Sun analysis of more than 30 weather stations throughout the Southwest found that average monthly temperatures were 1.7 degrees hotter in the past 20 years than the average in the decades before 1960. Nighttime lows rose an average 3 degrees. Palm Springs is 3.4 degrees hotter and nighttime lows are...

Guardian Liberty Voice: With the climate change threatening the integrity of Earths atmosphere, oceans and terrain, innovators have been prompted to find creative uses for solar power today. Terrestrial sources of energy, such as fossil fuels, struggle to meet the demands of economy with a very finite supply. In addition, such traditional sources of power come with the release of harmful greenhouse gases and pollutants as a direct result of use. Solar power, in contrast, is a clean, simple, sustainable and affordable alternative...

Climate Change Puts Worlds Energy Systems at Risk

Guardian: Rising sea levels, extremes of weather and an increase in the frequency of droughts and floods will all play havoc with the world's energy systems as climate change takes hold, a new report has found. This power plant in Nebraska was not operational when the Missouri River flooded in 2011. If it was, the consequences could have been dire. Energy companies are more often cited as part of the problem of climate change, generating the lion's share of the world's greenhouse gas emissions, amounting...

CleanTechnica: President Barack Obama recently attended a commencement ceremony for the University of California, Irvine at the Angels Stadium in Anaheim, California. With the students, he mentioned the cold, hard reality that there are many politicians that deny climate change`s existence altogether. This compromises climate change mitigation efforts (which is most likely their goal). He mentioned that people didn`t deny the science behind space travel which was used to get to the moon, despite concerns that...
