Nature World: It's not enough that we have to worry about human-caused greenhouse gases, but a new study now shows that nature may be contributing to climate change in its own way. With rising global temperatures, the world's oceans could start to release more carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere, fueling climate change even further. The study, published in Nature Geoscience, provides fresh insight into how the oceans may be playing a major part in our changing climate. Based on a 26,000-year-old sediment...

Scientific American: After a five-year decrease in the amount of carbon dioxide pumped into the atmosphere from burning fossil fuels, U.S. greenhouse gas emissions are on the rise again. The culprit: a rebounding economy. CO2 emissions from fossil fuels rose 2.39 percent in 2013 compared with 2012 and grew 7.45 percent for the first two months of 2014 compared with the same period in 2013, according to new data released by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). The jump puts an end to the annual decrease...
