The fight against climate change has opened a trans-Atlantic rift in an industry often seen as a monolith - Big Oil. Unwilling to sit on the sidelines of climate negotiations, Europe's largest oil companies last month issued a joint statement calling for a worldwide price on the greenhouse gas emissions that come from burning their products.

Science: What if the missing heat has been there all along? In 2013, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) flagged an odd phenomenon: Atmospheric temperature data collected over the past few decades suggested that global warming had slowed down beginning around 1998. Global warming skeptics crowed, and scientists delved into the global climate system to find out where the missing heat had gone. But a new analysis suggests that the real culprits are the data themselves. When better corrections...

National Geographic: A reported pause in global warming-a mystery that has vexed scientists and delighted contrarians-was an illusion based on inadequate data, U.S. government researchers reported Thursday. The findings by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) researchers that there was no warming "hiatus" over the past 15 years could reshape consensus science on recent climate change. The research undercuts an argument of pundits and politicians who oppose taking action. In the new report, NOAA's...
