Daily Camera: A highly anticipated global assessment of the causes and effects of climate change released Friday -- with significant contributions from Boulder scientists -- stated with extreme confidence that human activity is the primary cause of global warming recorded since 1950. Calling human-made warming "extremely likely," the first section of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Fifth Assessment Report released in Stockholm employed the strongest language yet in its overview of the state of...

World's scientists are confident on climate change

Star-Ledger: Top scientists from around the world released a major new report yesterday that blames humans for climate change, with 95 percent certitude. That`s up from 90 percent in 2007, the last time they made this assessment. But for the deniers out there, "extremely likely" will never be good enough. In their view, as long as there`s even 5 percent of wiggle room, we shouldn`t do anything. Which is a bit like refusing to get up off your couch when weather conditions are whipping up a massive tornado,...

Atlantic Wire: A United Nations climate panel has released its latest report on the state of our planet, and is now ready to declare it a virtual certainty that human activity has led to a rise in global temperatures. The report, which is released every six years bythe Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, is an attempt to compile and synthesize all the relevant research being done in climate science into one comprehensive document. It contains the work over 800 contributing authors and 50 editors from 39...

As Rim Fire landscape shows signs of new life, scientists begin to assess forest management

Associated Press: In the midst of a foreboding canyon scorched bare by the Sierra Nevada's most destructive fire in centuries, tiny ferns unfurl along a spring, black oaks push through charred soil normally blanketed with pine needles and a hawk soars above towering dead and denuded trees. Just four weeks after the most intense day of California's Rim Fire -- when wind and extremely arid conditions created a conflagration that turned 30,000 acres of dense conifers and oaks into a moonscape -- life is returning...

What we're seeing now: Climate scientists get Swift-boated

Daily Climate: The word early from scientists gathered in Stockholm is clear: The planet is changing, and humans are the cause. But the message from media outlets in the days and weeks leading up to Friday's release of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change assessment presented a far murkier picture: Global temperatures haven't risen in the past 15 years, Arctic Sea ice is growing and scientists are scrambling to explain why. The media is being distracted and misled by the denial machine. - Susan...
