...city in the U.S. can't fully control its environmental destiny. That's true for climate change too; even if New York meets its laudable CO2-reduction goals, that alone will do little to stop global warming. But the city is ensuring that it will be ready for a warmer world. The Bloomberg administration began by creating a homegrown version of the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Those scientists reported that by the end of the century, annual mean temperatures in New York City could increase 7.5şF (13.6şC), with sea levels rising as much...
Unlike most students on campus, players on the Harvard men’s lacrosse team are not anxiously awaiting some rest and relaxation on the warm sand over spring recess. Try metal, sweat, and churned up grass. While the team will be flying south to warmer climates and staying in hotels like most of America’s college population, there will be no tanning oils or beach balls in sight—only rubber balls. Tomorrow, the Crimson (3-1, 0-0 Ivy) faces rival Penn (1-3, 0-1), an offensive powerhouse that defeated Harvard 12-10 last...

...Climate Change's (IPCC) most recent assessment in 2007, which projected a sea-level rise of 18 to 59 cm by 2100. But the IPCC numbers were based on older data and took into account only the thermal expansion of the seas. (Water expands as it heats, so warmer seas rise.) The IPCC did not factor in the potentially far greater impact of melting ice caps in Greenland and Antarctica - Greenland alone has enough ice to raise sea levels by more than 20 ft. At the time of the IPCC report, the polar ice sheets were clearly melting...
