Although there is an urban legend that the world will end this year based on a misinterpretation of the Mayan calendar, some researchers think a 40-year-old computer program that predicts a collapse of socioeconomic order and massive drop in human... 
Using field trips, editorial cartoons and even parent objections, four innovative teachers are bringing global warming out of the science classroom... 
July 4 is the normal standard for wheat harvest in Southeast Nebraska. This year, Memorial Day might not be far off the mark.
Using ground-based measurements and aerial surveys, University of Alaska researchers found 150,000 'methane seeps' - mostly along boundaries where glaciers and permafrost are melting. 
Circumpolar rivers seen as key source of toxic heavy metal By Summit Voice SUMMIT COUNTY — Widespread mercury pollution from wind-carried smokestack emissions has widely been recognized as a huge... In the late 1990s, regulators in some U.S. states began to make electric utilities sell their nuclear reactors to private operators. They weren’t trying to help head off climate change, yet they managed to do just that. 
Just as the planet Melancholia moves inexorably closer to Earth, writes EarthTechling's Susan Kraemer, a similar unprecedented calamity moves inexorably closer to us, through time. 
CHICAGO -- The kind of deluges that in recent years washed out Cedar Rapids, Iowa, forced the Army Corps of Engineers to intentionally blow up levees to save Cairo, Ill., and sent the Missouri River over its banks for hundreds of miles are part of... 
UC Davis professor Arthur Shapiro has studied butterflies most of his life. 
For the first time scientists have provided the most complete climate record of the last millennium and they found that the last 50 years in Australia have been the warmest. 
The Sydney Institute of Marine Science has revealed elephant seals are carrying out its research after the facility received a $20 million upgrade. 
Experts are warning us that floods, droughts and heat waves will increase, while cities around the world attempt to prepare themselves for future climate catastrophes - and population explosions. 
In some places, projected warming threatens the survival of more than one in three species... |
Green roofs are one way to deal with climate change: The only supermarket in downtown New Orleans is the first grocery in the country to develop an aeroponic urban farm on its roof. Via Alan Yoshioka 
Like the Titanic, our present-day industrial civilization is a marvel of human ingenuity, and yet, a reckoning looms on the horizon. 
Ecological partnerships are getting out of sync, especially at high latitudes... Coastal seagrass can store more heat-trapping carbon per square mile (kilmometre) than forests can, which means these coastal plants could be part of the solution to climate change, scientists said in a new study. 
For humans and other large mammals, environmental fluctuations encourage adaptation... 
Unregulated markets have overproduced CO2 because the costs are not priced into the transaction... 
They have forever been seen as a symbol of Wales – for better or worse. But the humble Welsh sheep has been issued a stark warning in the face of climate change: “adapt or die”. 
Moose may disappear from boreal woods as circumpolar regions warm and transform... 
'Climate chaos' led one upstate N.Y. farm to stop planting in fertile flood plains, a practice farmers have followed for thousands of years. 
Man-made pollution is helping to push the tropics northwards, research suggests. A scientific study published on Wednesday revealed that the Himalayas, one of world’s richest biodiversity zones, is warming faster than other parts of the globe. 
German researchers have found evidence that areas in Antarctica, previously thought relatively safe from the direct influence of climate change, are melting rapidly. |
