Summit Voice: National Parks across the country are facing an era of change because of global warming, scientists concluded in a new study showing that many parks are already experiencing temperatures that are near the extreme high end of the scale, based on measurements going back to 1910. The report by National Park Service scientists concludes that climate change is happening in Americas national parks, and in some cases in rapid and concerning ways, and that measurable plant and animal responses to recent...

NASA scrubs launch of global warming satellite

Associated Press: The planned launch of a rocket carrying a NASA satellite designed to track global warming has been postponed. NASA writes in a tweet that the countdown was stopped at 46 seconds because of a failure in the launch pad water flow. A message left with NASA was not returned. The Delta 2 rocket was supposed to launch early Tuesday over Vandenberg Air Force Base. The rocket is the second try for NASA. In 2009, the space agency launched a replica satellite aboard a smaller and cheaper Taurus XL...

Pentagon to Escalate Global Warming Preparation

U.S. News and World Report: Time to put some milestones on the Roadmap. Whether from rising seas, eroding coasts, thawing permafrost or worsening wildfires, American military installations across the world are in the line of fire from climate change, the Government Accountability Office and the Department of Defense have found. Thawing permafrost, melting sea ice, and rising sea levels along the Alaskan shore has eroded the coastline near a Defense Department early warning radar site. Following up on a 2012 Climate...

Unhappy Feet: Global Warming Threatens Emperor Penguins
2014-06-30 18:03:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
LiveScience: The biggest threat to emperor penguins may not be leopard seals or even killer whales, but a much larger predator: global warming. Climate change, which is quickly melting the sea ice this species depends on for survival, could cause dramatic drops in the number of emperor penguins across Antarctica by the end of the century, a new study finds. Specifically, more than two-thirds of Antarctica's emperor penguin colonies will decline by more than 50 percent by the end of the century under future...

Blue and Green: May 2014 was the warmest since records began in 1880, with land and ocean temperatures across the world hitting an all-time high, according to the latest data from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (Noaa). Average land and ocean temperatures in May were 0.74C higher than the last centurys average of 14.8C. This years May is now the hottest on record, with 2010, 2012, 1998 and 2013 also in the top five. Separate satellite research had previously said that 2014 was the third...
