97% of Greenland's surface ice melts in two weeks
A massive 97% of the surface ice sheet melted in July and was so large that scientists could scarcely believe it. Much of the meltwater freezes again later, but the findings still give cause for concern.

Ice-free Arctic dangers of a 'cold war'
It's science against politics against climate effects in a 3-way struggle this week. We all know the winner will be climate, unless some pretty good technology can come to our aid. #Arctic #climate
the ice is melting and it looks like they are floating in the ocean or water

Blue Carbon estimates up!
Blue Carbon estimates up! Coastal land-use conversion and degradation creates a new carbon source called "blue carbon".

Drought and its consequences on river life
Drought, leading to lower water levels may cause the collapse of freshwater food webs that support aquatic life in rivers.

Destroying Amazonian forest cuts rainfall
Destroying tropical forests can significantly alter rainfall and could result in 20% less rain across the Amazon basin by 2050, according to a new study.

Ice in the Arctic? There is some left!
Arctic sea ice extent for August 26, 2012 (right) was 4.10 million square kilometers (1.58 million square miles), which was 70,000 square kilometers (27,000 square miles) below the September 18, 2007 daily extent of 4.17 million square kilometers (1.61 million square miles, left). A loss of 5% of the ice will be the minimum over a full annual cycle. The orange line shows the 1979 to 2000 median extent for that day. The black cross indicates the geographic North Pole.

Ice in the Arctic? There is some left!
The day that the sea ice dipped to its smallest extent ever recorded in more than three decades of satellite measurements.

What Climate Change? (the instruments have all been cut)
The likelihood is that various financial cuts will see the end of efficient climate change checks. We need to consider the huge cost of correcting global warming problems can be offset by the relatively minor cost of maintaining proper monitoring. #climate #climatechange #ocean
The Australians might be expected to be a little isolated from the global effects of climate change. Not true, plus they seem to be possibly the most aware of the dangers of selling their coal to Asia while suffering some terrible effects from global warming. #coal #oil #gas #climate Headline News, Climate Action, Oil And Gas, Try It, Fossil, Sustainability, Funny Stuff, Fuel, Australia

HFCs to be reduced?
When the two Presidents meet, we expect them to produce something useful. This could be a possible reduction in some of the most dangerous emissions we make. It's likely that storms and droughts have spoken louder than science for them to make this decision. #climate #hfcs #greenhousegases
