Climate Scientists Give New Prediction of Sea Level Change

Voice of America: In a new report, climate change scientists predict that for each one degree Celsius of increase in global temperature, sea levels will rise 2.3 meters. They say their estimate may be accurate for as long as the next 2,000 years. Earlier studies have predicted various changes in sea level as the climate warms, but a team from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research says its analysis is the first to consider historic climate data, along with computer simulations of factors contributing...

ABCNews: A very good ABC News story from last week: Here`s the transcript: And once again tonight, flooding, tornadoes, hail, and fire as the nation takes another punch from mother nature and climate. ABC`s Clayton Sandell shows us what the weather and climate are doing and what it`s costing us. Reporter: This tornado spotted near dix, nebraska. Just part of a weather juggernaut today pounding the plains and midwest. In minnesota, 60-mile-an-hour winds flipped big rigs. And were powerful enough...

E&E Publishing: Severe flooding in India and wildfires in Colorado provided a backdrop of recent examples of weather-related disaster yesterday, as scientists and policymakers discussed the science of severe weather events at the American Geophysical Union's annual science policy conference in Washington, D.C. The panel discussion led off with a straightforward yet disturbing fact: In 2012, the United States had the world's two costliest disasters, totaling more than $100 billion. One was Superstorm Sandy, and...

RTCC: If Bill Gates was so inclined, he could reduce the worlds temperature by one degree. All it would takes is a fleet of high altitude planes, releasing millions of tonnes of sulphur dioxide into the stratosphere, deflecting the suns rays from planet earth. The start-up costs of this technique, called Solar Radiation Management (SRM) are around $10 billion, with running costs of around $5 billion a year. Thats peanuts compared to current climate mitigation and adaptation estimates. Solutions...
