Guardian: The commitments made by world governments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the next 15 years are not sufficient to stave off the worst effects of climate change, a new analysis by Lord Stern has found. The study by the author of an influential report on the economics of climate change found that countries pledges ahead of a crunch UN climate summit in Paris this December would not keep warming below 2C, the level that previous UN negotiations have agreed on. But Stern said he was still...

Curbs greenhouse gas emissions won't prevent global warming 'danger limit' being reached

Independent: The planned curbs in greenhouse gas emissions by the nations of the world fall well short of what is required to avoid global average temperatures exceeding the danger limit of 2C this century, a report has warned. An analysis of the pledges made by countries attending the climate summit in Paris this December has found that the promised reductions as they stand will still exceed the amount of greenhouses gases widely considered to breach of the safe threshold, it says. The authors of the...

Mashable: The buildup to Pope Francis' planned encyclical on global climate change has begun, with the moral case for acting to combat manmade global warming taking center stage in a way it never has before. The encyclical, which is a papal letter sent to all bishops around the world, will likely come out next month, but Francis is already having an influence on the global debate about climate change. The pope's involvement comes at a critical time for climate action, as global leaders work toward creating...

Global warming will kill off species worldwide: study

Associated Press: Global warming will eventually push one out of every 13 species on Earth (7.7 per cent) into extinction, a new study projects. It won't quite be as bad in North America, where one in 20 species (five per cent) will be killed off because of climate change, or Europe, where the extinction rate is nearly as small. But in South America, the forecasted heat-caused extinction rate soars to 23 per cent, the worst for any continent, a new study published Thursday in the journal Science states. University...

Study: Global warming to push 1 in 13 species to extinction

Associated Press: Global warming will eventually push 1 out of every 13 species on Earth into extinction, a new study projects. It won't quite be as bad in North America, where only 1 in 20 species will be killed off because of climate change or Europe where the extinction rate is nearly as small. But in South America, that forecasted heat-caused extinction rate soars to 23 percent, the worst for any continent, according to a new study published Thursday in the journal Science. University of Connecticut ecologist...
