Climate Change Will Disrupt Half of North America Bird Species, Study Says
2014-09-09 04:03:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
New York Times: The Baltimore oriole will probably no longer live in Maryland, the common loon might leave Minnesota, and the trumpeter swan could be entirely gone. Those are some of the grim prospects outlined in a report released on Monday by the National Audubon Society, which found that climate change is likely to so alter the bird population of North America that about half of the approximately 650 species will be driven to smaller spaces or forced to find new places to live, feed and breed over the next...

Smog in India Damaged Enough Crops to Feed 94 Million, Study Says
2014-09-06 00:03:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Yale Environment 360: Ground-level ozone, the main component of smog, damaged 6.7 million tons of Indian crops worth an estimated $1.3 billion in a single year, according to a new study published in Geophysical Research Letters. That's enough wheat, rice and other staple crops to feed 94 million people roughly one-third of the country's impoverished population. Arising from a combination of vehicle emissions, cooking stoves, and industrial sources, plant-damaging ozone has left many of India's fast-developing cities...

Edmonton Journal: The worlds virgin forests are being lost at an increasing rate and the largest portion of the degradation is in Canada, according to a new report. No longer is Brazil the main villain in the struggle to stop forest destruction. Canada is the number one in the world for the total area of the loss of intact forest landscapes since 2000, Peter Lee, of Forest Watch Canada, said in an interview. He said the main drivers are fires, logging and energy and industrial development. There is...
