    • Global temperature rises could be double those predicted by climate modelling

      Posted by Bill on July 8, 2018
      Climate Crisis, Sea Level Rise

      This article discusses the possibility that climate models are underestimating the temperature increases and sea level rising that our planet is facing.

      Researchers say sea levels could also rise by six metres or more even if 2 degree target of Paris accord met.

      Temperature rises as a result of

      Climate Crisis, Studies Reports Tools

      This article describes the arctic heat wave of 2016 being caused by global warming.

      Just days before Christmas in 2016, the North Pole was 50 degrees above its usual winter temperature. The top of the world was just above freezing.

      Unusually warm air had smothered the Arctic throughout that year, and […]

      Climate Crisis, Food Production, International, Studies Reports Tools

      This article discusses how food production will be affected

      Even with aggressive climate policies to limit global warming, food security in some areas will be threatened

      We have delayed action for so long on handling climate change, we now can no longer can “will it happen?” Rather we have to […]

    • Stark Differences in Climate Impacts Between 1.5 and 2 Degrees of Warming

      Posted by Bill on March 19, 2018
      Climate Crisis, Financial Implications, Sea Level Rise, Studies Reports Tools

      This article discusses the differences between 1.5 and 2.0 degree Celsius increase in temperature. It is not good. A difference of just half a degree of global warming, from 1.5 to 2 degrees Celsius, would mean that an additional 5 million people worldwide will have the land where their homes […]

    • 22 National Science Academies Urge Government Action on Climate Change

      Posted by Bill on March 13, 2018
      Climate Crisis, International, Studies Reports Tools

      The scientists, from the UK, Canada, Australia and other Commonwealth countries, warn that stronger measures are needed to keep global warming under 2 degrees.

      As some of the world’s biggest polluters resist efforts to address climate change—most glaringly, the United States—thousands of scientists from countries that make up the […]
