#FearlessSummer: How the Climate Change Battle Got Ferocious

Yes!: In Richmond, Calif., over two hundred people sat down at a Chevron oil refinery and refused to leave. Outside Boston, Mass., they were handcuffed at the state`s largest coal plant. On Seneca Lake in New York, they paddled a flotilla of kayaks across the water to protest a natural gas storage facility. In Utah, and Texas, and West Virginia, and in other places across the country, they simply placed their bodies in front of the land they wanted to protect. This has been a #FearlessSummer: three...

Ocean species relocate in response to climate change, study finds

LA Times: As climate change heats our oceans, you'd expect temperature-sensitive marine species to flee poleward to cooler waters. So why have some headed to warmer regions toward the equator? Scientists have solved the puzzle. For the most part, these animals are relocating to cooler waters. But since the effects of climate change can vary widely across regions, sometimes those cooler regions are closer to the poles and sometimes they're closer to the equator. In other words, marine animals are still...

Guardian: Tomorrow, Saturday 14 September, BBC Media Action launches the findings of a major, two-year research project called Climate Asia. There's a hint in the name we were given the task of understanding how people in Asia are being impacted by climate change in their everyday lives and how they are adapting to these impacts. The majority of the 33,500 people we spoke to in Bangladesh, China, India, Indonesia, Nepal, Pakistan and Vietnam were not climate scientists or policymakers. They were the farmers,...

"Hack the planet to counter climate change," says Lord Rees

Telegraph: Lord Rees, the Astronomer Royal, claims that launching mirrors into space, triggering algal blooms in the oceans and seeding clouds are just some of "Plan B" schemes which will have to be considered by world leaders unless carbon emissions can be cut in the next 20 years. He is due to tell the British Scientist Festival in Newcastle that although it is an "utter political nightmare' because "not all nations would want to adjust the thermostat the same way ", hacking the planet through geoengineering...
