NBC: Leading climate scientists on Thursday issued their annual physical of Earth, comparing the planet in 2013 to a patient that's only getting worse and highlighting problems with key vital signs: from record warmth in Australia and China to sea levels that continue to rise and Arctic sea ice in continued decline. The vital signs reflect "the largest changes that we've been able to witness in the historical record," said Tom Karl, director of the National Climatic Data Center, part of the National...

Climate change scientists face credibility challenge
2014-07-10 17:29:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Blue and Green: Climate change scientists face a unique challenge regarding their research and how they live their own lives, especially as their projects face ever increasing pollicisation and criticism, according to a report. The report, co-authored by Chris Foulds, of Anglia Ruskin University, and academics from the Tyndall Centre for climate change research, has investigated this challenge and has been published by the journal Climate Change. The report concluded that climate scientists face a unique challenge...

Scientific American: The White House obviously accepts the science behind human-caused climate change, as was made clear again this week by its announcement of plans to cut carbon emissions from U.S. power plants 30 percent from 2005 levels by the year 2030. Some Americans remain skepticalbut theyre in the minority. As The New York Times reports, most Americans think global warming is a fact. Strangely enough, not everyone who accepts the data on anthropogenic global warming trusts climate scientists. According to...

Spiegel: Lennart Bengtsson says he was pressured by colleagues to step down from his role at the controversial Global Warming Policy Foundation. After joining a controversial lobby group critical of climate change, meteorologist Lennart Bengtsson claims he was shunned by colleagues, leading him to quit. Some scientists complain pressure to conform to consensus opinion has become a serious hindrance in the field. News that Lennart Bengtsson, the respected former director of Germany's Max Planck Institute...
Scientists hope 2,000-year-old ice holds clues to climate change

Reuters: Polar scientists who retrieved ice samples from the Antarctic say they are on the verge of unlocking 2,000 years of climate records offering clues to how global warming will affect our future. An international team traveled to Antarctica's Aurora Basin in a five-week project that began last December, to drill for ice samples needed to bridge a gap in knowledge of temperature changes over the last 20 centuries. Using the latest technology to probe the secrets of the past, the scientists hope...
