What does climate change have to do with socialism? - CS Monitor (Aug 05, 2019) |
|
Aug 05, 2019 · After years of denying or deflecting mainstream climate science, a growing number of GOP lawmakers – from Lindsey Graham to Matt Gaetz – have begun to break ranks. But one faction in the conservative movement continues to push against such calls. They maintain that the agenda for climate action is part of a socialist plot to undermine the American way of life.
"What they're trying to do is to destroy our way of life and they're succeeding," one attendee at the Heartland Institute's July conference in Washington, D.C., told attendees.

A new indigenous environmental strategy: Buying the pipeline - CS Monitor (May 31, 2019) |
|
May 31, 2019 · Resource extraction projects often pit environmentally minded indigenous communities against the energy industry. That is no less the case with the proposed expansion of the Trans Mountain pipeline, which runs from Alberta to British Columbia. But the Reconciliation Pipeline project is trying to bridge the gap by putting together an indigenous bid to buy a 51% stake in the pipeline.
It is far from clear that the players in the project will convince the government to sell. And they face resistance from many indigenous communities moving forward. But they see their offer as an alternative to messy pipeline politics that usually puts indigenous players on one side of a zero-sum ... | By The Christian Science Monitor Read more ...

As southern Spain dries up, its farmers get inventive - CS Monitor (May 17, 2019) |
|
May 17, 2019 · Spain today is the world's third-largest almond producer. But climate change, coupled with soil erosion, threatens to change that, not just for the almond crop, but for the wider fruit basket that is Spain. If the worst-case-scenario climate change models play out – with global temperature increases of 5 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels, versus the Paris climate agreement target of 1.5 degrees – all of southern Spain would become desert.
In response, farmers and organizations across Spain's Andalusia region are experimenting with new techniques and strategies to revitalize the land sustainably. For example, the company La Almehendresa brings together more than 20 ... | By The Christian Science Monitor Read more ...

Cutting emissions still matters. But carbon capture rises as a battlefront. - CS Monitor (Sep 19, 2018) |
|
Sep 19, 2018 · Emissions reduction plays a key role in plans to limit global warming to 1.5 or 2 degrees C. But increasingly, experts say that reduction alone won't be enough. Removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is also necessary. Luckily, our understanding of how to do that effectively is rapidly growing – even if most of the means to do so still have big challenges or drawbacks. Some carbon removal relies entirely on biology, such as using the natural potential that forests and farms have as carbon sinks. Others – like capturing carbon dioxide directly from the air before storing it geologically – harness technology. Experts say these technologies have big potential, but also a long way ... | By The Christian Science Monitor Read more ...

After hurricane, Puerto Rico switches on to renewable energy - CS Monitor (Jul 26, 2018) |
|
Jul 26, 2018 · Even so, "Puerto Rico can be an experimental workshop for solar and wind," Rep. Darren Soto, a Florida Democrat, said at a congressional hearing Wednesday.
While Adjuntas is dotted with solar-powered islands, a community of 12 homes in the mountain town of Las Piedras still lacks central power and is operating exclusively on solar energy provided by Tesla, the high-tech maker of electric cars and other power products. It installed 160 solar panels on a plot of land owned by resident Jose Santana.

Could making climate change a 'pro-life' issue bring conservatives on board? - CS Monitor (May 02, 2017) |
|
May 02, 2017 · The terms "pro-life" and "pro-environment" are not normally linked, but a growing number of Christian leaders insist they should be.
Pope Francis said so in his 2015 encyclical on the environment and human ecology. Now, the Evangelical Environmental Network (EEN), a nondenominational organization committed to "creation care," is promoting the argument that if you value life from its conception, you should value a clean Earth for the rest of a child's life and for future children.
"When we talk about creation care in pro-life terms, in caring for our children, both born and unborn, 97 to 98 percent of people get it," says Rev. Mitch Hescox, president and chief executive ... | By The Christian Science Monitor" / Read more ...

When climate change was part of the farm bill - CS Monitor (Apr 21, 2017) |
|
Apr 21, 2017 · Last month, Congress held initial hearings to inform the 2018 Farm Bill.|
Agriculture Committee members heard about the struggling farm economy, crop insurance, and rural development. One issue that wasn't discussed, despite its profound impact on farmers, is climate change. Both Republican House and Senate Agriculture Committee chairs are noted climate change skeptics. But Congress didn't always have its head buried in the climate sand.
The 1990 Farm Bill included a title called the Global Climate Change Prevention Act. That title established a program at the USDA to coordinate climate-related issues within the giant agency. The program was to "ensure that recognition ... | By The Christian Science Monitor" / Read more ...

Appalachia's new trail: finding life after coal - CS Monitor (Apr 09, 2017) |
|
Apr 09, 2017 · Teddy Martin knows the life of a Kentucky coal miner. He spent years working underground. Sometimes he burrowed through coal seams where the crawl space was just 28 inches high, so tight that "you had to pack a straw to drink your pop."
It was hard, dangerous work. But it paid well – an allure that was obvious even back in high school, when Mr. Martin saw his friends graduate and come back with new cars. He wanted the same.
The problem: The work always ended. Mining jobs kept disappearing, and he was laid off half a dozen times. With each pink slip, he'd take community college classes to learn a new trade.
Now, that experience has given Martin a new mission – ... | By The Christian Science Monitor Read more ...

California's conservative farmers tackle climate change, in their own way - CS Monitor (Apr 04, 2017) |

Apr 04, 2017 · Like all California farmers, Don Cameron is used to long dry spells interrupted by wet years. Drought and flood, he says, have always been a way of life in the Golden State.
But in 36 years of farming, Mr. Cameron says he's never experienced anything like the swings of the past six years.
"We've never seen a drought that long or that intense," says Cameron, general manager of Terranova Ranch, a 7,000-acre farm in Helm, Calif. "And we've never seen a change overnight from absolutely nothing in the reservoirs to now, they're spilling water."
In response, Cameron and his crew have been partially submerging their fields in rainwater. It's a relatively new tactic to ... | By The Christian Science Monitor Read more ...

Halting federal climate action isn't so easy - CS Monitor (Apr 04, 2017) |

Apr 04, 2017 · President Trump signed an "Energy Independence" executive order, aimed especially at scrapping the Clean Power Plan, which calls on states to reduce electric-utility emissions. But, although Trump and his team can certainly slow US efforts to respond to climate change, it may be much harder for them to lock a different direction into place for the long term. // Mark Trumbull and Henry Gass
The Michigan city's water crisis may finally be reaching resolution, with a settlement that would require the city to replace 18,000 underground pipes by 2020.

Should Congress fund climate-change skeptics? - CS Monitor (Mar 31, 2017) |

Mar 31, 2017 · Two high-profile scientists skeptical of the international scientific consensus on climate change urged Congress on Wednesday to fund a "red team" to probe the conclusions of a United Nations panel that perennially reviews the scientific basis for climate change and is considered an authority on it.
One of the scientists called for between five and 10 percent of US funding for the UN-sponsored Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) to be reallocated for a "red team" – a "group of well-credentialed scientists," he said, "to produce an assessment that expresses legitimate, alternative hypotheses that have been (in their view) marginalized, misrepresented or ignored in ... | By The Christian Science Monitor Read more ...

NASA clears up skies with new fuel - CS Monitor (Mar 17, 2017) |

Mar 17, 2017 · By trailing extremely closely behind an aircraft, NASA pilots may have helped find a way to cut particle emissions from planes by up to 70 percent, a discovery that could greatly reduce their effect on the climate, new research shows.
To conduct their study, published this week in the weekly science journal Nature, a team of scientists led by the United States space agency put a 50-50 blend of normal jet fuel and biofuel into a NASA DC-8 aircraft and then flew small chase planes fitted with instruments 100 to 500 feet behind them to measure the emissions.

Electricity-storage tech facing biggest test yet in California - CS Monitor (Jan 23, 2017) |
|
Jan 23, 2017 · From the perspective of both renewable-energy advocates and electric utilities, grid-scale energy storage offers many potential benefits.
By storing energy in battery packs for later use, energy storage can make intermittent renewable sources like solar and wind into more reliable forms of power.
It also helps utilities "balance" the grid by absorbing excess energy during periods of low demand, and releasing it during periods of peak demand.
Yet energy storage has not been tested on a large scale by U.S. utilities.
Until now, that is.

How Trump's scale-back on NASA climate science could hurt Maine - CS Monitor (Nov 29, 2016) |
|
Nov 29, 2016 · Last week, policy advisors to President-elect Donald Trump announced that the administration would curb NASA's role in climate research. As it happens, many of Maine's scientists aren't happy about that.
"We see NASA in an exploration role, in deep space research," Bob Walker, space policy adviser for the Trump campaign, told the Guardian last week. "Earth-centric science is better placed at other agencies where it is their prime mission."
But that's not necessarily true. Earth monitoring would likely be delegated to agencies such as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), which have less experience in space-based research and tighter budgets. And ... | By The Christian Science Monitor Read more ...

If climate change comes up at Thanksgiving, it's OK to talk. - CS Monitor (Nov 22, 2016) |

Nov 22, 2016 · With Thanksgiving coming after a polarizing election campaign, Americans may have some tough choices to make about what to discuss with family and friends. But here's a little food thought: Important topics don't necessarily have to be unspeakable ones, if handled in the right way.
Climate change is a case in point, and there's a special reason for Americans to consider talking about it more, whether it's one-on-one with at a holiday gathering or in some other venue.
It's an issue that's not only polarizing, it's also beset with a paradox: Researchers say two-thirds of Americans are actually interested in it, but they show scant willingness to talk about it. Some ... | By The Christian Science Monitor Read more ...

The Dead Sea is getting saltier – and shallower - CS Monitor (Nov 22, 2016) |
|
Nov 22, 2016 · The Dead Sea may soon live up to its name, environmentalists say.
The world's most historic salt lake has been shrinking by about three feet every year, according to environmentalist group EcoPeace Middle East. Excessive tourism is taking its toll on the Dead Sea, the group warns, and inflow has slowed to a trickle. The lake's water, which is increasingly extracted for use in cosmetic and "therapeutic" products, simply isn't being replaced.
If the Dead Sea really is drying up, it joins many other dwindling reservoirs across the globe. Many, such as the Ogallala aquifer in the Midwestern United States, are victims of poor water management. Others may suffer the effects of ... | By The Christian Science Monitor Read more ...

Temperatures soar, sea ice hits record lows at North and South Poles - CS Monitor (Nov 20, 2016) |
|
Nov 20, 2016 · Sea ice levels in both the Arctic and the Antarctic have hit record lows, NASA climate scientists report.
The northern record, while bleak, isn't all that surprising – Arctic sea ice has been on a consistent decline for years. But until recently, Antarctic sea ice was actually expanding. Climate change skeptics have often pointed to ice gain in the Southern Hemisphere, which hit record highs between 2012 and 2014, but now that trend appears to be reversing.
"[It] certainly puts the kibosh on everyone saying that Antarctica's ice is just going up and up," Walt Meier, a research scientist with the Cryospheric Sciences Laboratory at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, told CNN. | By The Christian Science Monitor Read more ...

In one more bleached Pacific reef, some corals are 'back from the brink' - CS Monitor (Nov 18, 2016) |

Nov 18, 2016 · Just last year, scientists conducting research dive off the coast of Kiritimati, a small island in the Pacific Ocean, found that 85 percent of the coral was dead, with another 10 percent ailing because of coral bleaching. Only 5 percent was alive and well.
When the same scientists returned to the reef last month, however, they discovered a surprising change: 6 to 7 percent of the coral is alive. Many of the fish that rely on the coral component of the ecosystem have returned as the coral rebounds, showing its resilience in the face of environmental change – and challenging the dominant narrative that coral, one of climate change's prominent victims, are in irreversible ... | By The Christian Science Monitor Read more ...

It may be too late for Trump to stall climate change action - CS Monitor (Nov 15, 2016) |

Nov 15, 2016 · The way many scientists and activists see it, Donald Trump is no friend of the environment. On the campaign trail, Mr. Trump questioned the scientific community's consensus on climate change. He promised to restore a withering coal industry, lift federal restrictions on fracking and offshore drilling, and pull out of the Paris climate agreement. When he won, he tapped a staunch climate change denier to be the head of his EPA transition team.
But even if Trump backpedals at the federal level, climate change action may already have enough momentum to continue without him. Coastal communities, irrespective of party loyalty, are already preparing for rising sea-levels. China, the ... | By The Christian Science Monitor Read more ...

Renewable energy surges in Asia, but so does electric demand - CS Monitor (Nov 01, 2016) |
|
Nov 01, 2016 · China remains the undisputed leader of growth in renewable energy worldwide, but that growth comes with a risk that Asia may end up with more energy capacity than it can use, according to the new annual report of the International Energy Agency.
The organization, which was founded by 29 oil-importing countries in the wake of the 1973 oil crisis, projects renewable generating capacity to grow by 42 percent worldwide from last year to 2021. Heymi Bahar, IEA project manager for the report, said the projected growth is due to improved prospects in pivotal countries – notably China, but also India, Mexico, and the United States.

After 20 years of nuclear dormancy, a new reactor emerges in the US - CS Monitor (Oct 20, 2016) |

Oct 20, 2016 · In many American cities, nuclear power plants are rapidly shutting down. But in others, they're just now popping up.
After more than four decades of intermittent construction, a new reactor has begun commercial operation in Tennessee. Watts Bar Unit 2, built and operated by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), is the country's 100th nuclear generator and the first new one in 20 years. The 1,150-megawatt generator, which was originally connected to the power grid in June, is now producing electricity for to 650,000 homes and businesses in Tennessee's southeast corner.

All 10 political parties in Indonesia's parliament endorsed the agreement, a key measure before it becomes a law there.
The Paris agreement is already scheduled enter into force on Nov. 4, 30 days after the 28-nation European Union pushed the agreement past the 55 member states, accounting for 55 percent of global emissions threshold earlier this month.
