Global Warming

Abstract Our study quantified the global tree restoration potential and its associated carbon storage potential under existing climate conditions. We received multiple technical comments, both supporting and disputing our findings. We recognize that several …

Abstract Bastin et al. (Reports, 5 July 2019, p. 76) state that the restoration potential of new forests globally is 205 gigatonnes of carbon, conclude that global tree restoration is our most effective climate change solution to date, and state that climate…

The more specific climate scientists are about the uncertainties of global warming, the more the American public trusts their predictions, according to new research by Stanford scholars. But scientists may want to tread carefully when talking about their pre…

Families forced to flee the Lake Manitoba First Nation are expressing frustration around evacuation efforts following a recent snowstorm that’s left thousands of people in the province without electricity for days. Babies and seniors alike were crowded into …

Despite all its evidently performative public-facing climate change initiatives, Google is forking over substantial contributions to denier organizations and events. A report from the Guardian published Friday revealed that the tech company is contributing t…

The planet's warming climate has led to countless changes that are affecting all of us. Droughts, hurricanes, rising sea levels and forest fires -- all are now regular events in a world that saw close to 40 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) emission…

As a result of industrialization, the carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere has increased continuously over the past 100 years, which is considered the main reason behind global warming. However, the observational global mean atmospheric temperature levele…

By Lindsay Dunsmuir WASHINGTON, Oct 10 (Reuters) - Countries around the world should urgently begin accelerating efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and the best way to do that is through implementation of carbon taxes and global cooperation, the Int…
