Christian Science Monitor: Clouds play an important role in melting Greenlands ice sheet, say scientists. A team of scientists from the University of Leuven in Belgium have found that clouds are raising the temperature of the Greenland Ice Sheet by up to 3 degrees, contributing to almost 30 percent of the sheets melting, according a study published Tuesday in the journal Nature Communications. With climate change at the back of our minds, and the disastrous consequences of a global sea level rise, we need to understand...

Australian Broadcasting Corporation: For the first time since Sir Douglas Mawson's Antarctic expeditions in the 1920s and 1930s, scientists will be conducting climate studies in the area known as the Kerguelen Plateau, in the Southern Ocean. The Kerguelen Plateau, hundreds of kilometres north of Mawson Station, is one of only three lines of longitude where the Antarctic Circumpolar Current flows across the Antarctic continental shelf, the deep ocean and subantarctic islands. That makes it one of the most highly productive regions...

Climate denial is alive and kicking say scientists

Climate Change News: Its been 15 years since researchers last ran the numbers on how climate denial is disseminated in public discourse. A study recently published in the journal Global Environmental Change fills the gap, taking a fine tooth-comb to misinformation pumped out by conservative think tanks from 1998 to 2013. It analysed almost 25 million words of op-eds, blogs and policy reports available online from 16 US groups such as the American Enterprise Institute, Heritage Foundation and Heartland Institute...

Scientists Now Fear Climate Change Happening Faster Than It Has In All Of Earths History
2016-01-06 21:06:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
MTV: Climate change deniers often argue that the climate change we`re seeing now is just part of Earth`s natural cycle, and isn`t being caused by humans. But new research suggests that climate change is happening faster than it has at any other time in our planet`s history - and scientists are worried. Scientists at the University of Bristol recently took a closer look at past periods of climate change in an effort to compare them with what`s happening today, and to investigate whether Earth has ever...
