Trump and global warming: Americans are failing risk management
2016-06-12 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: Currently, about 40% of Americans support Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election, and about 40% of Americans are not worried about global warming. While short of a majority, this is a substantial fraction of the American public failing to grasp the risks associated with a Donald Trump presidency and potentially catastrophic climate change impacts. In Business Insider, Josh Barro recently wrote about the former: Trump calls for a huge risk premium because, while he probably wouldnt...

Melting ice in Greenland linked to faster Arctic warming
2016-06-12 09:55:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Gadgets and Technology: It is also well over a million square kilometers below the average for the month. Ice loss on Greenland is likely driving the loss of frozen cover around the rest of the Arctic. And it broke the prior record low for May by a region larger than California, although not quite as large as Texas. The future of the planet depends upon it. In June of 2015, Greenland underwent record levels of melting ice. The previous record September low was set in 2012. The south saw more snow during summer of 2015...

Study links 2015 melting Greenland ice to faster Arctic warming
2016-06-12 09:34:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
iNews Today: A recent study shows that changes in the jet stream are directly affecting ice melt in Greenland. The result could be the latter warmer air being pushed further north causing even more Arctic warming. "We identified an unusual configuration of the jet stream toward northern Greenland that led to this melt pattern", Mote noted. A new study has blamed Arctic amplification for the loss of ice in Greenland. Greenland possesses the second-largest ice sheet in the world, behind only Antarctica. If...
Global Warming: Melting Greenland ice linked to Arctic amplification
2016-06-12 07:30:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
DNA: The Greenland ice sheet holds enough ice that it could raise the average global sea level by about 7 metres if it were to melt entirely. Scientists have found the first evidence that links melting ice in Greenland to Arctic amplification - faster warming of the Arctic compared to the rest of the Northern Hemisphere as sea ice disappears. The findings show that the predicted effects of Arctic amplification, as described in previous studies, occurred over northern Greenland during summer last...
