Japan Times: Most Americans are already feeling man-made global warming, from heat waves to wild storms to longer allergy seasons. And it is likely to get worse and more expensive, says a new federal report that is heating up political debate along with the temperature. Shortly after the report came out Tuesday, President Barack Obama used several television weathermen to make his point about the bad weather news and a need for action to curb carbon pollution before it is too late. "We want to emphasize...

New Evidence That Human Activities Are To Blame For Global Warming
2014-05-06 22:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RedOrbit: A new federally-mandated report released on Tuesday has provided more evidence supporting the idea that global warming is indeed happening and that human activity is the cause. Multiple lines of independent evidence confirm that human activities are the primary cause of the global warming of the past 50 years, the report said. The burning of coal, oil, and gas, and clearing of forests have increased the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by more than 40 percent since the Industrial...

The study, conducted by Florida State University scientists, has shown that certain regions of the world have warmed while others cooled. "Global warming was not as understood as we thought," said Zhaohua Wu, an assistant professor of meteorology at FSU. For the study, researchers used a new analysis method to examine data on land surface temperature changes since 1900. The team used data from all over the...

Family Farmers Hold Keys to Agriculture in a Warming World
2014-05-02 06:53:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
National Geographic: The challenge is huge but the solution may be small-very small. Faced with global warming and a population that will swell to nine billion by 2050, a growing number of experts say that the way to feed the masses as climate change makes growing our food more difficult is to focus on family farmers, who often can barely feed themselves. When policymakers in the developed world talk about feeding billions of extra mouths in the decades to come, it's multinational agribusinesses-which operate industrial-size...
