A team of scientists from Delhi University, Bombay Natural History, Zoological Survey of India, and Brussels' Vrije University discovered frog species that belong to the night frog group and rediscovered three frog species which were thought to be extinct.

Earth's temperatures will likely stabilize for a period as a new study suggests that deep oceans may absorb enough heat to flatten the rate of global warming for periods as long as a decade.

A film about the struggles of a village in war-torn Lebanon took the People's Choice award at the Toronto International Film Festival on Sunday, an audience trophy that has often been a harbinger of Oscar glory.

A team of scientists in India has discovered 12 new frog species and three others which were considered to have been extinct.

A dead NASA satellite will be plunging back to the Earth in about a week, around September 23, though there is absolutely no idea as to where it is going to fall.

A team of scientists, led by biologist Sathyabhama Das Biju of the University of Delhi, have discovered twelve new species of frogs in addition to three others that were thought to be extinct in the mountains of western India.

NASA's 6.5-ton Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite would fall to Earth next week after the end of a productive scientific life.

The energy-thirsty United States is on the hunt for a game-changing energy source or energy usage technology -- and batteries and fuel cells are strong candidates. But their mass use could be 20 years away. Meanwhile, a conventional source may bridge that gap, or provide even more upside: natural gas.

Republican presidential debates and a rise in the number of natural disasters are influencing more Americans to believe that the world is warming, a Reuters/Ipsos poll said on Thursday. The percentage of Americans who believe in global warming rose to 83 percent in 2011, from last year's 75 percent, the poll conducted Sept. 8-12 found out.

In the latest Bloomberg News Poll on the 2012 election, Republican and Republican-leaning Independent voters favor Texas Gov. Rick Perry over former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, but in the poll's entire sample, the public still favors President Barack Obama over any GOP nominee.

Rising seas forecast from climate change will likely wash away some of California's most iconic beaches by century's end, along with hundreds of millions of dollars in real estate, roads and tax revenues, a new study found on Wednesday.

Scientists in UK will create an artificial volcano that they hope will be capable of cooling down the Earth by pumping sulphate particles into the atmosphere.

A research team from NASA has created high-resolution maps of freshwater aquifers buried deep beneath a desert in Northern Kuwait by using radar sounding technology that provides more accurate idea of underground water levels.

In a new bizarre experiment, scientists will create an “artificial volcano” that can cool down the earth by pumping sulphate particles from its global warming effects.

Nobel Prize winning physicist Ivar Giaever resigned as a Fellow from the American Physical Society (APS) on Tuesday, condemning the group's official stand on global warming. In 2007, APS adopted an official statement on global warming, which said that the emissions of greenhouse gases from human activities are changing the atmosphere in ways that affect the Earth's climate.

A new study by three non-profit climate research organizations has claimed that global warming is more likely to improve rather than harm human health.”

Study shows that climate change might harm California beaches, as well as the state’s economy.

Two separate reports recently confirmed ice covering the Arctic Ocean is melting at an alarmingly fast pace.

A new addition to England's landscape is in the making as scientists are preparing to build a giant balloon in an experiment that seeks to re-create the cooling effect of erupting volcanos.

South Africa is confident that a recently launched bidding process for renewable energy will lead to the addition of 3,725 megawatts (MW)of green energy to the national grid by 2016, despite previous delays, a senior government official said.

To tackle manmade climate change, scientists will investigate the feasibility of a geo-engineering project by building an artificial volcano, which will appear in the British county of Norfolk next month.
