Cynic contentions that Antarctica is picking up ice every now and again rely on a slip of oversight, to be specific overlooking the contrast between area ice and ocean ice. In glaciology and especially regarding Antarctic ice, not everything is ...

Global warming hits plateau. . . What does that mean for the threat of catastrophic climate change? Why has the warming trend slowed? Climatologists aren’t sure. What they do know is that the average air temperatures at the earth’s surface ...

Antarctica and Greenland are shedding their ice sheets at record rates.  The warming of the ocean waters is essentially causing the ice sheets to self-destruct and start to collapse.  With this ice melting the sea levels may rise to about ...

Researchers say the economic costs of failing to take action on climate change will be much greater than previously thought – with average global incomes cut by almost a quarter. Even the strongest economy can overheat. As soon as the ...

Coral reefs around the world are experiencing a massive die-off that could be the worst in recorded history, a new study warns. Stoked by climate change and a powerful El Nino, record-high ocean temperatures have triggered the global event, which ...

There is some million year old ice deep in Antarctica that researchers are hoping to find out information on the earths past.  They believe that they can predict the effect of co2 in some bubbles that are in the ice.  ...

The warming of the world's oceans is penetrating radar. They discovered two causing a glacier the size of California in massive undersea valleys beneath the East Antarctica to melt, and scientists fear ice sheet, one of which is 3 miles ...

According to NASA and NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) due to the warmer weather, the ozone hole has measured its smallest size on record over Antarctica.  This has happened three times in the last 40 years where the weather ...

NASA has released new images showing global sea level rise. The agency's scientists say sea level rise accelerating four inches in the last two decades is definite cause for concern. (Aug. 27) Video provided by AP Source: AP / Powered ...

Global climate envoys agreed a landmark accord on Saturday, setting the course for a "historic" transformation of the world's fossil fuel-driven economy within decades in a bid to arrest global warming. At the tail end of the hottest year on ...
