Mongabary: Sea level rise severely threatens small islands across the globe. But now, these islands have another cause for worry reduced freshwater access and increasing aridity due to climate change. According to a new study published in Nature Climate, climate change may dry out 73 percent of the worlds small islands by 2050. This is greater than previous estimates which indicate that 50 percent of the islands would become drier. Island groups such as the French Polynesia, the Marshall Islands, and the...

UN panel to study a cap on global warming that may be out of reach

Reuters: Top climate scientists will launch a study this week of how hard it would be to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 Fahrenheit), although many of them fear it might be too late to reach that level. The world's average surface temperatures reached 1C (1.8F) above pre-industrial times in a record-hot 2015. They will rise by 3C (3.6F) or more by 2100 if current trends continue, many projections show. A 195-nation climate summit in Paris in December asked the U.N.'s Intergovernmental...
Study: Climate change making islands drier

9News: A study from the University of Colorado-Boulder revealed islands are at risk of losing their freshwater resources -- making life difficult for island residents. Climate change claims are nothing new, and scientists have developed global climate models to help measure climate change all over the world. The issue is GCM technology doesn't have the capability yet to recognize these small islands. So to the GCMs, they don't exist. This is a problem because how climate change is affecting the freshwater...
