UN: Nations must keep CO2-limiting pledges to slow global warming

It’s not too late to slow the rise of global temperatures, but nations must stick to the pledges they’ve made to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions, according to a UN report issued in advance of next week’s climate change summit in Cancun, Mexico

East coast basalt rocks could store and recycle CO2

Scientists at Columbia University write that undersea volcanic rocks along the eastern U.S. coast might provide optimal storage sites for carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted by nearby industrial sources. The undersea rocks could even recycle the greenhouse gas.

Op-Ed: The most valuable satellite data since Sputnik?

Five hundred NASA satellite maps now say carbon dioxide is utterly irrelevant to climate change. Geomagnetic shifts are what is changing the climate, and at the present rate, the magnetic poles may flip in 800 years or less.

Britain set to build the first Carbon Capture and Storage system

The British Government are to take the bold step of prototyping the Carbon Capture and Storage system (CCS) on a national scale. This process liquefies the carbon dioxide gas from the emissions of coal-fired power stations and stores it deep underground.

Study Warns Carbon Dioxide Already in Danger Zone

A group of 10 prominent scientists says that the level of globe-warming carbon dioxide in the air has probably already reached a point where climate will change disastrously unless the level can be reduced in coming decades.

Revised Theory Suggests Carbon Dioxide Levels Already in Danger Zone

If climate disasters are to be averted, atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) must be reduced below the levels that already exist today, according to a study.

Map of CO2 global distribution- Clumpy, oozy and ugly

Not too hard to follow the logic. Surface sources do dictate upper atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide. A complex, but understandable, picture is emerging of systems which distribute CO2. This is raw science, but it’s learning a lot, fast.

Last ice age ended by carbon dioxide increase

A significant increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, rather than changes to the Earth's orbit, was likely the main cause of global warming that ended the last ice age, a new study has found.

Airlines report emissions to EU

The vast majority of airlines are conforming to EU rules on reporting carbon dioxide emissions, despite a number of protests and lawsuits.

Seabed test mimics carbon release

Scientists begin a month-long experiment in Scottish waters to study the impact of a possible leak from an undersea carbon dioxide storage site.
