Last December’s meeting of the American Geophysical Union featured three of the world’s leading climate scientists: James Hansen (NASA’s chief climate scientist), Elco Rohling (National Oceanography Centre…
Removing CO2 from the atmosphere through a process known as “scrubbing” has been much vaunted as a way to slow the onset…
DURBAN CLIMATE CHANGE CONFERENCE: Whatever fruits ripen out of the United Nation’s Climate Change Conference in Durban, a global aviation emissions agreement is unlikely to be among them. Thus far, Durban…
So you accept that CO₂ from human activities is a major cause of climate change. What are you going to do about it? Buy a hybrid car? Install a PV system? Buy fresh produce with less food miles? Vote for…
How dense could we be? Very, if you follow much of the commentary in Australian debates about the way we should plan our cities. High-rise residential developments have been springing up in all Australia’s…
Climate scientists say the world’s target to stay below a global warming of 2 degrees, made at the United Nations conference…
New technology installed on a “Wildcat” car by Oxford University researchers could improve navigation, reduce emissions…
Traffic emissions have been linked to reduced fetal growth in a study led by Researchers at The University of Western Australia…
Data taken from the first air quality test undertaken during an Australian dust storm has shown that large dust particles…
Most of the discussion about slowing the impact of climate change has focussed on reducing carbon dioxide emissions. But carbon dioxide isn’t the only greenhouse gas. Methane, halocarbons and nitric oxide…
Drought, drought and more drought is the forecast for the Australian climate unless significant steps are undertaken to reduce…
Cutting emissions of non-carbon dioxide greenhouse gases could slow changes in climate that are expected in the future. Other…
Ocean acidification is often referred to as the “evil twin” of climate change. Greenhouse gasses are doing more than just warming the globe. Increasing C0₂ levels are also changing the chemical make-up…
How often do we hear the argument that Australia’s moves to limit carbon emissions will achieve nothing unless China finally takes some action? This fails to recognise that China’s city mayors, the government…
Speaking on the ABC, Professor Hans Joachim Schellnhuber, chief climate science advisor of the German Government, made a point even the least-informed should be able to understand. “Our body temperature…
A new study identifies many instances where wood could be used in place of products that cause a one-way flow of carbon dioxide…
Top Conversation author Professor Stephan Lewandowsky and former Western Australian Premier Carmen Lawrence were part of a group that sat down with Ross Garnaut during his recent visit to UWA. During the…
