Sharp Rise in Methane Levels Threatens World Climate Targets
Dramatic rises in atmospheric methane are threatening to derail plans to hold global temperature rises to 2C, scientists have warned.In a paper published this month by the American Geophysical Union, researchers say...
Shift Towards Clean Energy in Southeastern Europe: Challenges and Opportunities
Various means such as petroleum products, biomass, sun, wind, water, nuclear fission, lead us to the production of electricity as the ultimate goal. Each of the methods of obtaining energy has its...
Drax Becomes ‘World’s First’ Bioenergy Plant to Capture Carbon from Wood-Burning
The giant Drax power station, near Selby in North Yorkshire, has become the first in Europe to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) from wood-burning.Drax burns seven million tonnes of wood chips each year...
Pet Food Manufacturers Are Experimenting with Insects instead of Meat
It is now a well-established fact that there is a link between human meat consumption and climate change, thanks to the CO2 and methane emissions that come from raising and transporting cattle...
Climate-Heating Greenhouse Gases at Record Levels, Says UN
Carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide are far above pre-industrial levels.The main greenhouse gas emissions driving climate change have all reached record levels, the UN’s meteorology experts have reported.
Carbon dioxide, methane and...
The Oceans Absorb Even More Heat Than We’ve Thought and That’s Bad News
Two thirds of the planet is covered in water and so no surprisingly oceans have an inordinate effect on the Earth’s climate. They absorb vast amounts of CO2 from the atmosphere and...
Planting More Trees Won’t Be Enough to Save the Planet
One way of mitigating the adverse effects of man-made climate change is to plant trees. The more trees there are, the more CO2 they absorb from the atmosphere, thereby alleviating the greenhouse...
Greenpeace Report: Europe Has 10 Years Left to Ditch Fossil Fuel Cars
Europe must phase out the sales of new gasoline- and diesel-fueled cars by 2028 if it wants to live up to its Paris climate agreement emissions-reduction pledges, according to new research by...
EU Climate Law Could Cause ‘Catastrophic’ Deforestation
Senior climate scientists say that the world’s carbon sinks could be facing a grave threat from a wholly unexpected source: the EU’s renewable energy directive.
The climate law could suck in as much...
Forests Storing Greenhouse Gases ‘Crucial to Tackling Climate Change’
UK scientists say replacing forests with crops for bioenergy power stations that capture carbon could instead increase the amount of emissions.
Carbon capture technologies will help curb the world’s efforts to tackle climate...
Last Year Was Warmest Ever That Didn’t Feature an El Niño, Report Finds
Last year was the warmest ever recorded on Earth that didn’t feature an El Niño, a periodic climatic event that warms the Pacific Ocean, according to the annual state of the climate...

Carbon Tax Would Help U.S. Meet Paris Goals, Study Finds
If the U.S. does decide to stay in the Paris agreement, a study conducted by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has confirmed a policy...
Melting Permafrost Emits More Methane Than Scientists Thought
Methane emissions are the source of the greenhouse gas which, after carbon dioxide, probably causes climatologists more sleepless nights than any of the other gases. And now it appears they have quite...
