Nuclear Power Needs to Double to Curb Global Warming

Scientific American: Since the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident in Japan chilled global attitudes toward nuclear power, the world has been slowly reconciling its discomfort with nuclear and the idea that it may have a role to play in reducing greenhouse gas emissions to tackle climate change. The International Energy Agency and the Nuclear Energy Agency suggest in a report released Thursday that nuclear will have such a significant role to play in climate strategy that nuclear power generation capacity will...

Global warming: atmosphere will adapt to hotter, wetter climate

Business Times: Strong storms will become stronger while weak storms become weaker, and the cumulative result of all the storms will remain unchanged under global warming, says a study led by atmospheric physicists at the University of Toronto. The team quantified the way in which increase in water vapour from global warming influences the strength of atmospheric air circulation. The atmosphere it turns out will adapt to hotter, wetter climate. "We know that with global warming we'll get more evaporation...

Climate models don't over-predict warming, study shows

LA Times: If you listen to climate change skeptics, Earth`s surface hasn`t warmed appreciably in the last 15 years, and any "record" set last year is just the result of the planet doing what the planet naturally does. It turns out they`re right, but for the wrong reasons, according to a study published online Wednesday in the journal Nature. There is no inherent bias in climate models that make them over-estimate the effects of human activity, according to the study. "Cherry picking" the most recent...

Call properly addressing global warming victims rehabilitation

Dhaka Tribune: Speakers at a discussion yesterday urged the international community to decide on the future of people displaced by the impacts of global warming. They said nations responsible for causing climate change should address rehabilitation measures of the affected people as the victim nations, including Bangladesh, alone cannot do so for such a large number of displaced people. Vulnerable countries like Bangladesh are not inducing global warming. It is the developed nations that are responsible for...
