Arctic warming poses risks to narwhals

The polar bear has become an icon of global warming vulnerability, but a new study found an Arctic mammal that may be even more at risk to climate change: the narwhal, which is a whale with a long spiral tusk that inspired the myth of the unicorn, edged out the polar bear for the ranking of most potentially vulnerable in a climate change risk analysis of Arctic marine mammals. 
Could global gardening fix climate change?
jane2007 submitted, created time 11 months 4 weeks (www.nature.com)
According to a new analysis, using biomass fuel on a massive scale in combination with carbon sequestration could return atmospheric carbon dioxide to pre-industrial levels within decades Peter Read calls his proposal global gardening. Is it will work, I doubt.
Climate deal agreed in Bali showdown
jane2007 submitted, created time 1 year 2 weeks (www.nature.com)
Insults, threats, tears and booing: the latest round of international climate talks made for an entertaining, if grueling, two weeks in Nusa Dua, Indonesia. These talks may well be remembered for the bold stand that developing countries took against the United States in the push for consensus on how to move forward in negotiating a new international framework on climate change.
Scientists issue declaration at Bali

More than 200 international climate scientists issued a declaration today urging politicians at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Bali to agree on strong targets for tackling climate change.
IPCC talks lead hopes for a stronger Kyoto agreement

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change won a group Nobel last month (although most of the hype went to Mr. Gore). This article is a good overview of the panel's latest report, but it also mentions that they're leaning more heavily on rhetoric. "A call to arms," it reads.
I don't know if that's necessarily a good thing. The panel says that its job is to relate and translate the scientific fact. Injecting politics into that also injects doubt.
Warfare, climate and warning bells
Darkfrog submitted, created time 1 year 5 months (www.nature.com)
Scientists have linked periods of warfare in Chinese history to the climate: When food is scarce, people fight more. This might seem obvious, but the kicker is that the warlike periods start thirty to forty years AFTER the start of a cold snap.
Time enough to prepare countermeasures, perhaps?
Combating Climate Change: Building Better, Wasting Less
Scarlett submitted, created time 1 year 7 months (www.sciam.com)
Buildings contribute 79 percent of the Big Apple's 60 million metric tons of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, according to the Mayor's Long-Term Planning and Sustainability Office; the remaining 21 percent stems from cars, trucks and mass transit.Worldwide, buildings—both commercial and residential—contribute roughly one third of all GHG emissions despite covering only 0.2 percent of land worldwide. And experts say that reining in pollution from them will be key in the fight to contain climate change.
Reining in climate change may not cripple economies
Darkfrog submitted, created time 1 year 8 months (www.nature.com)
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reports that 1) We really need to halt global warming at no more than two degrees C over current average temperatures and 2) This might not actually be so very expensive, claiming that it could cost as little as 0.12% per year of the global gross productivity (3% total until 2030).
I was a bit optimistic when I started reading this, but it doesn't actually propose any methods for reining in greenhouse gasses. Thoughts?
Biodiesel won't drive down global warming
fiona submitted, created time 1 year 8 months (www.biologynews.net)
"EU legislation to promote the uptake of biodiesel will not make any difference to global warming, and could potentially result in greater emissions of greenhouse gases than from conventional petroleum derived diesel. This is the conclusion of a new study reported today in Chemistry & Industry, the magazine of the SCI. "
Could America lead the world on global warming?

"When politicians start to run out of analogies, you know a subject must be hot. And in Washington right now, they are scraping the bottom of the barrel. "
Arctic fox failed to move north at end of ice age
amanda submitted, created time 1 year 8 months (www.bioedonline.org)
"Even the fast-moving arctic fox, used to trekking long distances, failed to retreat to cooler climes when global temperatures rose in the past, a new study suggests. The find dampens hopes that species will be able to adapt to climate change by moving towards the poles. "
Want to monitor climate change? P-p-p-pick up a penguin!
medal submitted, created time 1 year 9 months (www.biologynews.net)
"We are used to hearing about the effects of climate change in terms of unusual animal behaviour, such as altering patterns of fish and bird migration. However, scientists at the University of Birmingham are trying out an alternative bio-indicator – the king penguin – to investigate whether they can be used to monitor the effects of climate change."
Improved Computational Tool Lets Researchers Browse Microbial Genomes
BIOBOSS submitted, created time 1 year 9 months (www.sciencedaily.com)
As interest in the rising number of newly characterized microbial genomes mounts, powerful computational tools become critical for the management and analysis of these data to enable strategies for such challenges as harvesting the potential of carbon-neutral bioenergy sources and coping with global climate change.

Ecosystems along the continental shelf waters of the Northwest Atlantic Ocean are experiencing large, rapid changes. The decline of cod from overfishing as the main reason for the shifting ecosystems, the article also emphasizes that climate changes are also playing a big role. To see the detailed information…..
$25 million prize offered to capture carbon
Hunter9 submitted, created time 1 year 10 months (www.nature.com)
A multi-million dollar prize is on offer to anyone who can invent a device that will remove significant amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. As one of the largest science prizes on offer, it is likely to attract huge interest globally in a bid to combat climate change.
The initiative was launched today by British billionaire entrepreneur Richard Branson and former US Vice-President Al Gore in London
