[alisonrsmall] How Does Climate Change Affect Me?: It is predicted that climate change will contribute to destabilising, unregulated population movements in Asia and the Pacific. While most of population movement is likely to be internal, there will be flow on effects requiring cooperative regional solutions.

[Colloquy : Northwestern University Law Review] Taking the Legislative Temperature: Which Federal Climate Change ...: The Kyoto Protocol and other major climatechange policies have recognized this linkage, and the legislative provisionsfor the most part define a “Carbon Dioxide equivalent” uniformly: “For eachgreenhouse gas (other than carbon dioxide), the quantity of carbon dioxide thatwould have an effect on global warming equal to the effect of a unit of thegreenhouse gas, as determined by the President, taking into considerationglobal warming potentials.”
[After Gutenberg] The COB Crowd Gets a Warning from the Ecological Society of America: Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that contributes to global climate change. Ironically, one of the touted benefits of biofuels is to help alleviate global climate change, a benefit that is considerably diluted under a high-intensity agriculture scenario.
[biopact] Compost can turn agricultural soils into a carbon sink - but no ...: - Enzo Favoino and Dominic Hogg, authorsLike biochar, increasing organic matter in soils via compost may cause other greenhouse gas-saving effects, such as improved workability of soils, better water retention, less production and use of mineral fertilizers and pesticides, and reduced release of nitrous oxide.
[Tackle Climate Change] Coming clean on emissions: In February our Coming Clean report showed that the foreign activities of UK companies and individuals vastly increase this country's contribution to climate change, over what is officially admitted. The emissions associated with the global consumption of products made by companies in the FTSE 100 take this country's emissions to 12-15% of the global total, Christian Aid believes.
[Food for Thought] Peter Kendall's full speech to NFU Conference: The recent Cabinet Office report on Food points to the potential loss of half the world’s arable land by 2050. Similar projections show that Northern Europe, and the UK in particular, will become a more favoured area for agricultural production.
[The Livable Blog] Low Emission Fuels in Throne Speech: A recent paper by the Nobel laureate Paul Crutzen suggests that emissions of nitrous oxide (a greenhouse gas 296 times more powerful than CO2) from nitrogen fertilisers wipe out all the carbon savings biofuels produce, even before you take the changes in land use into account(14). Growing special second generation crops, such as trees or switchgrass, doesn’t solve the problem either: like other energy crops, they displace both food production and carbon emissions.
[flushstore] GREENHOUSE EFFECT AND ITS IMPLICATIONS: Today, whenever there is a natural disaster, the Greenhouse Effect seems to be on the agenda. It wasn?t so long ago that scientists were dismissive of the Greenhouse Effect and there are some still that do not believe it exists, just like there are still people out there that think the world is still flat and the Holocaust never existed.
