'Social Cost of Carbon' Battle Hits House Floor
2013-07-24 16:22:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Hill: House Republicans are seeking to thwart the Environmental Protection Agencys power to weigh the benefits of curbing carbon dioxide emissions when crafting regulations. Two proposed amendments to legislation likely reaching the floor this week would limit the EPA's use of the social cost of carbon (SCC), a metric of estimated damages caused by heat-trapping emissions. The Obama administration recently increased the SCC estimate used in federal rule-making, drawing criticism from GOP lawmakers....
Keystone Critics Release Report Finding Significant Carbon Rise
2013-07-24 06:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Bloomberg: Carbon-dioxide emissions caused by the Keystone XL pipeline could be more than four times higher than a draft U.S. analysis found, according to a Natural Resources Defense Council report released today. The NRDC, a New York-based environmental group that opposes the $5.3 billion project to link Albertas oil sands to refineries in the U.S. Gulf Coast, says Keystone would add as much as 1.2 billion metric tons of carbon pollution to the atmosphere over 50 years. Thats a much higher rate than estimated...

Panama: Researchers produce the most accurate carbon map for an entire country
2013-07-22 23:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Mongabay: Researchers working in Panama have produced the most accurate carbon map for an entire country. Using satellite imagery and extremely high-resolution Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data from airplane-based sensors, a team led by Greg Asner produced a detailed carbon map across the Central American country's forests. The map reveals variations in forest carbon density resulting from elevation, slope, climate, vegetation type, and canopy coverage. Overall the highest carbon density - often...
