Washington Post: In not much more than a month, leaders from around the world will assemble in Paris in order to -- hopefully -- find a way to cap the worlds greenhouse gas emissions and bring them down to safe levels. But theres a problem. There are some greenhouse gas sources that these leaders cant fully control -- and in some cases, reasons to think that these sources may grow in the future. The point is being driven home this year by raging peat fires in Indonesia, which have already contributed over a...

New Scientist: The carbon dioxide we`ve been pumping into the atmosphere is fertilising plants and making them grow faster - but now those plants are sucking our streams dry. Australia is already a parched country and will only become drier as the planet warms and rainfall decreases. But now it turns out that Australia has lost about a quarter of its streamflow over the past 30 years as plants given an extra boost by our carbon emissions grow faster and use more water. Global greening is happening for...
