Reuters: Six candidates are vying to become head of the U.N.'s top authority on climate change science this week, seeking to narrow down uncertainties about future warming to guide a trillion-dollar shift to greener energies. Top scientists - all men - from Austria, Belgium, Sierra Leone, South Korea, Switzerland and the United States will seek to become chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in a vote due on Tuesday at an IPCC meeting in Croatia. Governments have to pick a successor...

Washington Post: In a new study, scientists say that the risk of major hurricane or storm-driven flooding in New York City is already considerably higher than it was 1,000 or even 100 years ago, thanks both to a considerable rise in sea level, but also, they say, to changes in the nature of storms. We see more intense storms with a greater ability to produce high storm surges at The Battery in NYC during the anthropogenic era than during the pre-anthropogenic era, the researchers write. The paper, just out...

Time: Supporters of policies to address man-made climate change are quick to cite research showing 97% of climate scientists believe that humans are contributing to global warming. Now, new research suggests that consensus extends to scientists in other fields. Published in the journal Environmental Research Letters, the study found that nearly 92% of biophysical scientists surveyed believe that human activity has contributed to global warming. Nearly 94% said they believe global temperatures are rising....
Scientists are looking at riskier ways to reverse climate change

PRI: Our planet is heating up. Theres mostly consensus on whats causing global warming (we are), as well as how quickly we need to work to slow it down (very quickly). Now many climate scientists are coming together around a common goal: keep the planet from heating up more than two degrees Celsius. Thats the point at which wed see more and more droughts, ever-rising sea levels, and widespread wildlife extinctions. To achieve their ends, policy experts have focused on reducing greenhouse gas...
