Norway bets on global warming in Arctic oil and gas drive
2014-05-13 08:52:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Norway wants to let oil and gas companies drill in Arctic seas that were frozen as recently as the 1980s even though some climate experts say it is too early to trust global warming to keep the ice away. Russia is also showing new interest in the Arctic despite high costs in a region where governments are struggling to set safety rules after BP's 2010 blowout in the Gulf of Mexico, the worst offshore spill in U.S. history. Many companies, including ConocoPhillips and Idemitsu, are applauding a...

Rapid Arctic melting only partly our fault
2014-05-07 19:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
New Scientist: The rapid warming and melting of the Arctic is only half our fault. While our greenhouse gas emissions are clearly a factor, the record melts of the past few decades are partly the result of huge waves of warm air emanating from the Pacific Ocean. The same region of the Pacific seems to be behind both the Arctic warming and the global warming "hiatus" of the last decade. That means we could be in for something unexpected: when global warming speeds up again, the melting of the Arctic might slow...
