Green building is finally coming of age. Building sustainable, energy-efficient homes became a fad during the 1970s energy crisis, bolstered by tax incentives for solar energy and growing' [...]
Global warming is the increase of the average weather temperature of the Earth’s surface air and oceans. Global warming has been in effect since the mid-20th century. Since then, it is projected that with the current state of the environment, this increase will continue to happen. Global warming is said [...]
There are many reasons why people believe that global warming is a hoax. Some just find it hard to believe that global warming can possibly be a real issue. Even more frequent, many people will find it hard to believe that the issue will have some kind of effect on [...]
There are many facts that have been in circulation in regards to global warming. There are also a large amount of myths about global warming that have surfaced as well. It is your personal responsibility to figure the difference between global warming facts and global warming myths. Although there are [...]
There are several causes for the persistence of global warming throughout time. There are many efforts to stop global warming from continuing. In order to do so successfully, it is important that each global warming cause is accurately defined in order to put an end to the growing problem. Knowing [...]
There are many factors that will result if global warming is not eliminated, or at least regulated. Each global warming effect is catastrophic to the state of the environment. We must do what we can to get rid of global warming because the effects can be quite dangerous. It is [...]
Let us predict that there will be a deal here in Copenhagen. And that, at first sight, some of the numbers may look impressive. Not enough to ward off dangerous global warming maybe, but enough to satisfy diplomat honour.
But the devil, as always, will be in the detail. And numbers [...]
A new analysis of the geological record of the Earth's sea level, carried out by scientists at Princeton and Harvard universities and published in the Dec. 16 issue of Nature, employs a novel statistical approach that reveals the planet's polar ice sheets are vulnerable to large-scale melting even under moderate [...]

At the international climate talks going on right now in Copenhagen, Denmark, we have a once in a lifetime opportunity to launch a major assault on global warming. Besides deciding emission targets and the legal structure of an agreement, commitments for long-term financing for developing countries [...]

A British newspaper today published a list of "100 reasons why global warming is natural".
Here we take a quick look at the first 50 of their claims - and debunk each one. [...]
Imagine a planet in which global warming was averted without the periodic need for thousands of people to fly around the world to promise to stop burning fossil fuels. Imagine no international conferences wrangling over the details of climate policy. Imagine entrusting the tough questions to a referee: Mother Earth.
That [...]
COPENHAGEN The cuts in greenhouse gases offered at the 192-nation climate conference are "clearly not enough" to assure the world it will head off dangerous global warming, a key U.N.-affiliated scientist said Saturday.
Such projections, moreover, don't even account for the "potentially hugely important" threat of methane from the Arctic's [...]
The 1,073 e-mails examined by the AP show that scientists harbored private' [...]
Earlier this year, hopes for a national policy that would finally tackle global warming ran high, and prospects for an international climate treaty looked promising. But though the House passed a climate bill in June, the Senate (motto: "Where good ideas go to die") kicked the can down the road. [...]
An overwhelming number of scientists (84%) say the earth is warming because of human activity, while just 4% of scientists say there is no solid evidence the earth is warming. Yet only 56% of Americans say that scientists agree that global warming is real and man-made, according to Pew [...]
I once went on a tour of the Gettysburg battlefield where I heard that famous Civil War battle described as the high water mark of the Confederacy. Never again would the American South have the strength to invade the American North. Although it took almost two more [...]
Some counter that inaction on global warming would cost much more
WASHINGTON - If negotiators reach an accord at the climate talks in Copenhagen it will entail profound shifts in energy production, dislocations in how and where people live, sweeping changes in agriculture and forestry and the creation of complex new [...]
AMSTERDAM -- With the Copenhagen summit starting Monday, chances remain uncertain for a historic breakthrough in the fight to prevent climate change, but the Netherlands is leading a fight of a different kind: How to live with global warming.
