Scott Brown Denies That Man-Made Climate Change Is Scientifically Proven

Huffington Post: New Hampshire Senate candidate Scott Brown has added his name to the list of Republicans who have dismissed the science behind climate change, despite previously stating that global warming is real. During a GOP primary debate on Saturday, Brown was asked if he believed that "the theory of man-made climate change has been scientifically proven." The former Massachusetts senator, who hopes to challenge Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), responded, "Uh, no." Brown's response, posted in a video Monday...

Rapid melting of worlds glaciers proven to be man-made
2014-08-15 16:59:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Blue and Green: A study has found that more than two-thirds of the recent rapid melting of the Earths glaciers can be attributed to human activity. In a new study, scientists have analysed glaciers melting activities since 1851, but did not find any evidence of man-made effects up until the middle of the twentieth century. However, since 1991, there has been a huge increase in glacial melting, with 69% proven to be due to human activity. Ben Marzeion, a climate scientist at the University of Innsbruck...

Melting glaciers are caused by man-made global warming, study shows
2014-08-14 20:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Independent: The dramatic melting of the worlds mountain glaciers from the Alps to the Himalayas is mostly the result of man-made global warming rather than natural variability in the climate, a study has found. Scientists have laid to rest the idea that glaciers as far apart as Patagonia and Indonesia are melting primarily because of natural changes to the climate caused by such things as solar variability and volcanic eruptions. An assessment of about 200,000 glaciers in the world, some of which...

Man-made warming becomes main cause of glacier retreat, study says
2014-08-14 20:04:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Man-made greenhouse gas emissions have become the dominant cause of melting in glaciers from the Alps to the Andes that is raising world sea levels, a study said on Thursday. Human emissions accounted for an estimated 69 percent of loss of ice from glaciers from 1991-2010, overtaking natural climate variations that had been the main driver of a retreat since the mid-19th century, researchers wrote in the journal Science. Until now, scientists have struggled to quantify the impact of human behavior...
Man-Made Earthquakes Exist, And They Are Literally Changing Our World

Atlantic: This isn't just the stuff of comic-book villains: Real humans in the real world--actually, in Oklahoma, of all places--can cause earthquakes. Scientists have known about man-made earthquakes for decades. They've blame some reservoirs for seismic activity because reservoir water that trickles underground ends up lubricating faults that then slip--or, quake--as a result. These days, there appears to be a more common and growing culprit: fracking. (Scientists believe it's the deep disposal of...
