Drying Amazon threatens to increase carbon emissions
2014-02-09 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Conservation: Drought in the Amazon increases the release of carbon into the atmosphere, according to research published today in Nature. The Amazon plays a key role in the Earths climate system, thanks to the extent of its forests, which represent half of all the planets tropical rainforests. When healthy, its trees absorb CO2 through photosynthesis and store it in their wood. Because the net result is a reduction in atmospheric carbon, rainforests such as the Amazon are known as carbon sinks. But when...

Intervening years of accelerating carbon emissions have nourished the twin monster threats to our society that they cause: what we now call climate change and ocean acidification. Decades of inaction in the face of these building...
Carbon Emissions Could Climb 29 Percent by 2035

EcoWatch: The good news, from the climates standpoint, is that while global demand for energy is continuing to grow, the growth is slowing. The bad news is that one energy giant predicts global carbon dioxide emissions will probably rise by almost a third in the next 20 years. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change says greenhouse gas emissions need to peak by 2020 and then decline if the world is to hope to avoid global average temperatures rising by more than 2 degrees Celsius over pre-industrial...
