Amazon River exhales virtually all carbon taken up by rain forest
2013-05-20 11:07:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
PhysOrg: The Amazon rain forest, popularly known as the lungs of the planet, inhales carbon dioxide as it exudes oxygen. Plants use carbon dioxide from the air to grow parts that eventually fall to the ground to decompose or get washed away by the region's plentiful rainfall. Until recently people believed much of the rain forest's carbon floated down the Amazon River and ended up deep in the ocean. University of Washington research showed a decade ago that rivers exhale huge amounts of carbon dioxide...

Blowing the carbon budget
2013-05-18 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Budgets are made to be broken - especially when they are written by politicians. Unfortunately it seems the world is on course to break the carbon budget that scientists and policymakers agree is necessary to limit the rise in global temperatures to less than 2 degrees Celsius. If governments were really committed to limiting the rise in temperatures to 2 degrees, two-thirds of the currently known oil, coal and gas reserves would have to be left in the ground, according to the International...
