World must cut pollution to save marine life, study warns

Agence France-Press: If left unchecked, global warming will cause irreversible damage to marine life in the world's oceans, forcing fish to search for cooler waters and destroying valuable coral reefs, an international study said Thursday. Keeping global average temperatures within two degrees Celsius above pre-industrial temperatures is the only way to stave off the worst effects of climate change on the Earth's oceans, which provide 90 percent of the planet's habitable space, said the study in the journal Science....

Study: worlds oceans facing irreversible damage without climate action
2015-07-03 12:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Blue and Green: Unless ambitious action is taken to reduce carbon emissions the worlds oceans are facing dangerous and irreversible impact that could affect seafood supply, according to a new study. The report, which has been published in the journal Science, evaluated and compared two scenarios under two potential carbon dioxide emission pathways over this century. While both scenarios carry high risks to vulnerable species, a business-as-usual scenario was projected to be devastating and have a high impact...

Water Usage Fracking Has Increased Dramatically, Study Shows

Yale Environment 360: Oil and natural gas fracking requires 28 times more water now than it did 15 years ago, according to a study by the U.S. Geological Survey. The increased water demand is attributed to the development of new, water-intensive technologies that target fossil fuels in complicated geological formations, the researchers say. The amount of water used varies greatly with location, the study found. A fracking operation in southern Illinois, for example, can use as little as 2,600 gallons of water each time...

Study: Polar bears could feel global warmings sting by 2025
2015-07-02 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Associated Press: About a third of the world`s polar bears could be in imminent danger from greenhouse gas emissions in as soon as a decade, a U.S. government report shows. The U.S. Geological Survey, the Interior Department`s research arm, said updated scientific models don`t bode well for polar bear populations across the world, especially in Alaska. The report released this week is part of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service`s recovery plan for the polar bear. It is expected to be published Thursday in the...
