Global warming could be to blame for mysterious Siberian crater
2014-08-09 12:16:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Blue and Green: After a 30 metre mystery crater was discovered in July by a helicopter pilot, many in the scientific community have been confused by its appearance. There have been suggestions of a missile explosion, meteorite and of course alien claims. However, Russian scientists have now said the most likely cause is linked to abnormally hot summers. The large crater was found in the Yamal peninsula in Siberia and researchers suggest it was caused by methane being released from thawing permafrost. Andrei...

Global warming may be to blame for tornado onslaughts
2014-08-08 16:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
New Scientist: Tornadoes are aping buses: you wait ages and then a bunch of them come along at once. The twisters are increasingly arriving in clusters, with some days spawning more than 30 across the US, according to an analysis of weather records. Global warming may be to blame. Climatologists have long suspected that a warmer world would influence tornadoes but the evidence has been scant. In particular, the number of tornadoes has held steady for decades. It's when they do hit that they seem increasingly...

Global climate pact won't keep warming below target, study says
2014-08-07 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Hill: Negotiations among global leaders in Paris next year meant to mitigate climate change and keep the global temperature below 2 degrees Celsius are likely to fail, according to a new study. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) report released Wednesday concludes that the outcome of next year's United Nations (U.N.) talks in Paris probably won't put the globe on the path to limiting temperature increases to 2 degrees Celsius. The researchers looked at the major players in the talks...

Global warming stopped? Not in the real world
2014-08-04 08:25:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Green Left: Remember all those articles that claimed global warming has stopped? Heres proof that those were anti-scientific fantasies. On July 21, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced that last months average global temperature was 16.2°C, which is 0.7°C higher than the 20th-century average. Heat records were broken on every continent apart from Antarctica. The rises were especially notable in New Zealand, northern South America, Greenland, central Africa and southern Asia....

Reducing cows belches and global warming gases
2014-08-02 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Living on Earth: Researchers from Holland and around the world are developing a feed additive that reduces methane emissions from cows. Jake Lucas reports that the additive prevents microbes in bovine gut from making so much of the potent global warming gas. Transcript LUCAS: If cows were more polite, we'd have one less pollution problem to worry about. Whenever cows let loose a little gas--particularly when they burp--they emit methane, a powerful greenhouse gas. In fact, the EPA estimates that burping cattle...
