Increasing Carbon Dioxide Levels Causing the Desert to Bloom
2013-07-09 21:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World News: Rising levels of carbon dioxide are causing the desert to bloom, according to a new study published in the journal U.S. Geophysical Research Letters. In all, the researchers found that the increase of CO2 between the years 1982 and 2010 correlated with an 11 percent increase in foliage cover across parts of arid areas under examination in Australia, North America, the Middle East and Africa. The fertilization effect occurs where elevated CO2 enables a leaf during photosynthesis to extract more...

Trapping Carbon Dioxide Underground: Can We Do It?
2013-07-02 20:59:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Live Science: In a policy address last week, President Barack Obama made the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States a key priority in the nation's fight against climate change. Now, a newly released geological report points to a promising way to cut down on the amount of harmful carbon dioxide pumped into the atmosphere: inject and store it inside rocks deep underground. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted a detailed assessment and found 36 regions across the country that have the...

IEA Makes Recommendations To Cut Global Carbon Dioxide Emissions
2013-06-11 01:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RedOrbit: Last year, worldwide emissions reached a record high of 31.6 billion tons, despite the fact the United States had its lowest emissions total since the mid-90s, said an International Energy Agency release on Monday. Meanwhile, China had the largest emissions growth, up 3.8 percent over last year. However, the additional 300 million tons was one of the lowest increases in a decade, the report said. American emissions dropped 200 million tons, or 3.8 percent, which the IEA credited partially to...

Study: Increased carbon dioxide may lead to greener deserts
2013-06-04 17:43:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Mother Nature Network: Increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide may have contributed to a gradual greening of some desert regions over the past 30 years, a process that will continue, according to a new study. But the authors warn that this "CO2 fertilization effect" could also have consequences for native plants and the wildlife that depends on them. The study, published May 15 in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, was conducted by researchers from the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization...
