Radio Australia: UN members meeting in Lima reach an agreement to tackle climate change after negotiations run into a second day of extra sessions. About 190 nations have agreed on the building blocks of a new-style global deal due in 2015 to combat climate change amid warnings that far tougher action will be needed to limit rising world temperatures. Under the Lima deal, governments will submit national plans for reining in greenhouse gas emissions by an informal deadline of March 31, 2015, to form the basis...

Reuters: About 190 nations agreed on Sunday the building blocks of a new-style global deal due in 2015 to combat climate change amid warnings that far tougher action will be needed to limit increases in global temperatures. Under the deal reached in Lima, governments will submit national plans for reining in greenhouse gas emissions by an informal deadline of March 31, 2015 to form the basis of a global agreement due at a summit in Paris in a year's time. Most of the tough decisions about how to slow...

Having once been called the tech Hemingway of Paris, named one of the top 100 women in technology in Europe in 2012, short-listed for best tech journalist by the TechCrunch Europas, I like to fix problems with my own special brand of strategy, storytelling and writing. As a former assistant press secretary to a US Senator, DOE spokesperson, frequent speaker and host of a few of Europe's leading tech and mobile conferences, I've been on all sides of story telling, comms in all its forms.

Organic molecules found in the galactic core: Are stellar nurseries spitting out building blocks of life, as well as stars?
2014-09-26 17:21:40| Extremetech
Researchers at the Max Planck institute in Germany have discovered large quantities of organic molecules at the center of the Milky Way that resemble life-bearing amino acids in their complexity. The new-found presence of this complex organic molecule, iso-propyl cyanide, is a good indicator that amino acids themselves are floating throughout the interstellar medium. If this is indeed the case, it in turn suggests that these wandering amino acids may have played a vital role in the synthesis of life on other planets in the galaxy.

Bloomberg: The United Nations left open the option for rich and poor nations to remain divided in their obligations on climate change, setting up a conflict over exactly who should cut greenhouse gases. In a policy paper setting out possible language to include in a global warming agreement envoys from 190 nations are drawing up for next year, the UN set out an option for maintaining a divide between developed and developing nations. Under current rules, industrial nations have targets for reducing fossil...
