...told Britain's Observer newspaper. "In terms of immediacy of action and the feasibility of bringing about reductions in a short period of time, it clearly is the most attractive opportunity." So, that addiction to pork and beef isn't just clogging your arteries; it's flame-broiling the earth...
...send a message about the importance of renewable energy. “Putting [the turbines] in a very public place will help people get used to them, to realize that they are cool and we want them here,” said Daniel P. Schrag, a professor of earth and planetary sciences and the director for the Center for the Environment. The prospective wind turbine installations are part of a larger campus focus on sustainability and carbon emissions. In an announcement made earlier this summer, University President Drew G. Faust committed Harvard to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions 30 percent...
...found in the North Atlantic and the northern Indian oceans. They believe that rising ocean temperatures - due to global warming - are one of the main causes behind that change. "There is a robust signal behind the shift to more intense hurricanes," says Judith Curry, chair of the school of earth and atmospheric sciences at the Georgia Institute of Technology. (Hear Curry talk about warming and hurricanes on this week's Greencast...
...everyone agrees. Records of past hurricane strength are less than perfect, so it's difficult for scientists to be sure that the recent increase in storm intensity hasn't occurred before, in the years before the Earth started warming. And the weather - as we all know - is complicated, which means that it's difficult to model precisely how future warming might affect the formation of storms. Climate models work well on a global level, but they can rarely be applied accurately to areas smaller than 200 square miles - which happens to be larger than many storms. "It's not just...
