Gallup: Americans are taking global warming more seriously than at any time in the past eight years, according to several measures in Gallup's annual environment poll. Most emblematic is the rise in their stated concern about the issue. Sixty-four percent of U.S. adults say they are worried a "great deal" or "fair amount" about global warming, up from 55% at this time last year and the highest reading since 2008. Mirroring this, the March 2-6 survey -- conducted at the close of what has reportedly been...

Washington Post: A significant amount of the climate change caused by greenhouse gas emissions in the past century has been hidden from us, scientists say -- by another type of pollution that actually cools the climate and temporarily cancels out some of the warming. Two new studies, both released today in the journal Nature Geoscience, address the powerful influence of aerosols -- fine particles or drops of liquid often released by industrial activity -- on the climate, and suggest that as nations around the world...

Independent: A dramatic surge in the Earths surface temperatures took place in February which saw the biggest month-on-month rise in global warming on record, latest figures released by Nasa show. As global temperatures rise well above their seasonal averages, especially in the northern hemisphere, the sea ice in the Arctic continues its overall downward trajectory with a new record monthly low for a February. While some of the temperature rise has been put down to the large El Nino event currently coming...

Climate Home: February 2016 broke global temperature records, according to data released by NASA on Saturday. Global surface temperatures were 1.35C above the 1951-1980 global average for the month, a development described by experts as "an ominous milestone towards a warmer planet." "Perhaps even more remarkable is that February 2016 crushed the previous February record -- set in 1998 during the peak atmospheric influence of the 1997-98 super El Nino that`s comparable in strength to the current one -- by...
