Perceived earlier as a warning sign for climate change, the floating icebergs in Antarctic Southern Ocean are found to be helping the sea take up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, a new study has revealed.
New studies show ice in Greenland and the Arctic is melting even faster than first anticipated, raising sea levels as much as 1.6 meters (five feet) by the end of the century.
The ice that lies in the Canadian Arctic may play a larger role in sea level rise than anyone thought.
A new study shows that most of the energy a computer ever uses is in the manufacturing process rather than when it s being used.
Natural gas extracted from shale formations has a greater greenhouse gas footprint - in the form of methane emissions - than conventional gas, oil and coal over a 20 year period. This calls into question the logic of its use as a climate-friendly alternative to fossil fuels, says a new study.
A research report from The National Center for Atmospheric Research says climate control will damage cities in undeveloped countries.
Many of the world's fast-growing urban areas, especially in developing countries, will likely suffer disproportionately from the impacts of changing climate, a new study said.
In yet another example of eco-tourism initiatives driving the tourism industry worldwide, Philadelphia Zoo, America's first zoo, will begin with 25 Percent of electricity usage offset by Renewable Energy Certificates.
The colour of the environment is changing – becoming bluer – apparently due to climate change, says a new study that finds that environment and animal populations are fluctuating more rapidly over time. The change that could have important implications for animals' risk of becoming extinct, ecologists have found.
A study in Nature Climate Change from the Institute for Atmospheric Physics at the German Aerospace Centre may show that contrails have just as large an effect as carbon dioxide on climate.
A sophisticated satellite of the European Space Agency (ESA) has mapped Earth's gravity with unprecedented precision, helping scientists have clearer understanding of the variation in the gravitational force in different parts of the planet and how this may affect crucial events like an earthquake.
The world turned off its lights on March 26 for an hour from 8.30 p.m. local time as a show of support for tougher action to confront climate change.
Lights being turned off in homes, businesses and public buildings in Fiji and New Zealand at 8:30 PM local time marked the commencement of Earth Hour 2011, with widespread endorsement of the message that the world and its environment need commitments for action going “beyond the hour”.
As the world joins in the fight against climate change today, during the Earth Hour 2011, US-based Australian model and global ambassador of 2011 Earth Hour Miranda Kerr reaches out to her Myspace audiences through a unique program called Hijack.
While countries around the world wait for clock to strike 8.30 p.m. tonight, here's an Earth Hour 2011 official video showing the world during the past years' Earth Hour campaign.
At 8:30 PM on Saturday 26th March 2011, lights will switch off around the globe for Earth Hour and people will commit to actions that go beyond the hour.
Solar greenhouses, which have played a vital role in China's agricultural scene for years, may solve issues such as global energy crisis and climate change, according to a new report.
In response to the deepening crisis at Japan’s troubled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, China has decided to suspend its atomic energy program for the time being by postponing approvals for new power stations.
Data from NASA satellites shows both the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are melting faster, and making them a bigger contributor to sea level rise.
A new World Bank strategy for Africa unveiled on Wednesday focuses on creating jobs and making economies more competitive, while also tackling problems of climate change, disease, food shortages and conflict.
China, the world's biggest greenhouse gas emitter, wants rich nations to vow bigger cuts to emissions as part of a new international deal on fighting global warming, Beijing's top climate negotiator said on Tuesday.
