Will biggest danger from global warming be the change in diets?
2016-03-03 00:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
New Scientist: Global warming will make it harder for people to eat more fruit and vegetables, leading to 500,000 deaths in 2050 that would otherwise have been avoided, according to a modelling study. That means the biggest health impact of climate change in the short term could result from its effect on how much fruit and vegetables we eat, rather than from heat waves, starvations or the spread of tropical diseases. Can this possibly be true? Well, maybe, but such findings come with many caveats. Studying how...

Climate change: Global warming fruit and veg shortage could lead to 1,200 extra UK deaths a year by 2050

Telegraph: Climate change could lead to more than 1,200 extra deaths a year in the UK by 2050 as global warming causes fruit and vegetable shortages, new research suggests. The typical British diet will deteriorate as the effects of climate change hit crop production, resulting in supply shortages and pushing up prices, Oxford University researchers said. This will increase the number of deaths for which poor diet is a risk factor - more than offsetting a reduction in deaths from obesity that may be seen...
Is Global Warming Hiatus Real? Paper Claims Of Warming Slowdown In 2000s

NYSE Post: The global warming "hiatus" spawned congressional hearings in the United States and a flood of skeptical blog posts before being curbed in 2015. As climate change continues to warm the Earth and fish and other important resources move toward the Earth's poles, so are the world's wealthiest people, according to a new study from Rutgers University. The study discovered that recently corrected and updated global surface temperature data hasn't supported the notion of a global warming "hiatus". Now...

Global Warming Will Drive Vast, Unpredictable Shift In Natural Wealth
2016-02-26 12:52:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Kabylie: "Natural resources like fish are being pushed around by climate change, and that changes who gets access to them", said Malin Pinsky, one of the study's authors and a marine biologist, in a statement. Global warming "hiatus" suggested that though the planet is still warming, the pace of global warming and climate change has slowed down somewhat during the last 15 years. Gerald Meehl, a climate scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, said that when the NOAA study was released...

Study: Bigger Carbon Cuts Needed Prevent Catastrophic Global Warming
2016-02-25 15:30:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate Central: If the world hopes to avoid the most catastrophic effects of climate change, humanity must emit less than half the carbon dioxide than previously thought in the coming years, a new study shows. In order to keep global warming to no more than 2°C (3.6°F) the basis for the Paris climate agreement struck last year scientists have devised a carbon budget for how much carbon can be emitted before warming crosses into catastrophic territory.
