India is the second most populous country in the world. In terms of greenhouse gas emissions, India ranks third in the world behind the United States and China.

For the past several years, environmentalists have tried to get the largest producers of greenhouse gas emissions to adopt binding emission targets. Usually, these efforts have met with little success. Nations will not commit to targets citing the potential for harm to their economies.

In the last few weeks, India appears to Read More »

Educational facilities all over the country focus on climate change and its effects within the United States. Wind and solar energy have recently been in the news because the installation costs have significantly dropped. That’s because more contractors are available to install solar and wind power systems. This drives the costs of installation down. Solar panels are installed on top of roofs in order to soak up the most sun rays.

These systems can generate a large amount of electrical power. You can even sell back any extra power to your local Read More »

As global temperatures increase, hurricanes are becoming more frequent and have a greater likelihood of being accompanied by extreme storm surges. These storm surges occur when water accompanying a hurricane combines with the tide, flooding caused by rain and other freshwater sources, and wave run-up, and causes a wall of water to wash ashore. Storm surges are typically the most dangerous part of a hurricane, killing more people than damage caused by wind or heavy rainfall alone.

Climate scientists predict that in the next several decades extreme storm surges will be as much Read More »

The latest research shows that the summer melt season on the Antarctic Peninsula has been steadily increasing over the last sixty years. The peninsula is a mountainous region that extends North toward South America. The cause of warming is an increase in the strength of westerly winds which in turn drive warm sea air up over the peninsula.

The danger is that warming of the peninsula may cause increased break-up in the surrounding ice shelf. Meltwater increases the size of cracks in the ice which Read More »

Despite mounting evidence, many people refuse to believe that the greenhouse effect is real and has serious consequences. Statistics, however, show that climate is in flux worldwide. Environmental pundits are not mere alarmists; they convey scientific fact, not propaganda.

A recent report from the United States Forest Service concludes that many disruptions to regional ecosystems and meteorological patterns are the direct result of climate change. Changes that seem minor, such as a slight rise in average temperature, Read More »
