Islanders appeal to U.N. climate talks (View Original Story)
Source: Posted: 12-04-2007 at 01:00:35

Children look on as high tide comes in at Kilu village Wednesday, Nov. 28, 2007, on the island of New Britain, Papua New Guinea.  As seas rise with global warming, island states and low-lying costal communities elsewhere report ever-higher tides encroaching on their shorelines.  In Kilu people have had to move homes back from flooded beaches.  Plans are being made, meanwhile, to evacuate the inhabitants of Papua New Guinea?s remote Carteret Islands.  Scientists project that seas will rise two feet or more in this century if greenhouse gases pollute the atmosphere unabated.  This week, by boat, bus and jetliner, Papua New Guinea villagers are converging on Bali, Indonesia, to seek help from the more than 180 nations gathered at the U.N. climate conference.

** FILE **  This undated file image provided by the Center for Wildlife Information shows a grizzly sow and two cubs crossing a meadow in Montana.  Grizzly bears stand to benefit if a copper and silver mine is developed beneath Montana's Cabinet Mountains Wilderness, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said Friday Oct 13, 2006. (AP Photo/Center for Wildlife Information via The Great Falls Tribune, File)Nearly extinct last century, grizzly bears are back in the northern Rockies, and some say it's time to lift the protections that helped them recover. They point to recent grizzly encounters as evidence.

Switchgrass eyed for cheap ethanol (View Original Story)

Arvid Boe, a professor in South Dakota State University's plant science department, shows some switchgrass plants growing in a on-campus greenhouse, Monday, Dec. 3, 2007, in Brookings, S.D.  The university is teaming up with the California-based biotechnology company Ceres Inc. to develop commercial varieties of switchgrass adapted to the Northern Great Plains. Since President Bush slipped the seldom-heard term "switchgrass" into his 2006 State of the Union Address, the prairie grass has been in vogue.

U.N. climate talks focus on frontline (View Original Story)
Source: Posted: 12-04-2007 at 02:00:51

An environmental activist has her photo taken in front of a globe before she taking part in a demonstration at the venue of the UN Climate Change Conference 2007 in Nusa Dua, on Bali island, 04 December 2007. The 11-day conference, started 03 December, being held under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and attended by more than 180 nations, aims to craft a blueprint for negotiations leading to a new pact for addressing global warming. Under the new pact, industrialised countries will be pressed to massively reduce their emissions of greenhouse gases from the end of 2012, when the current phase of the Kyoto Protocol expires.  Victims of climate change, real and potential, appealed Tuesday for a vast increase in aid to protect them from and compensate them for rising seas, drought and other likely impacts of global warming.



C02 storage now a global goal (View Original Story)
Source: Posted: 12-04-2007 at 02:00:51

Dr. Yuichi Fujioka, a chemical system engineer, prepares separation membrane modules for a device which is used to reduce carbon dioxide at his RITE laboratory (Research Institute of Innovative Technology for the Earth) in Kuzugawa, western Japan, Thursday, Nov. 15, 2007. Scientists in Japan are trying to pull carbon dioxide - the leading cause of global warming - from power plant exhaust. After years of mining and pumping fuels out of the earth, the energy industry has valuable experience with underground sites where CO2 could be stored. Researchers around the globe are part of an expanding race to trap greenhouse gases and bury them deep underground, an experimental and costly technology known as carbon capture and storage.

Indian Hindu devotees carry an idol of the elephant-headed Hindu God Lord Ganesha into the Arabian sea for immersion on the last day of the ten day long festival of Ganesh Chaturthi, in Mumbai, 25 September 2007.  The ten day Ganesh Festival, which sees millions of Hindus  bringing home idols of Lord Ganesha in order to invoke his blessings for wisdom and prosperity, culminates with immersion of the idols into the Arabian sea, along the western city's coast.            AFP PHOTO/ PAL PILLAI (Photo credit should read PAL PILLAI/AFP/Getty Images)The number of people threatened by coastal flooding due to climate change could triple to 150 million by 2070 and the value of exposed property  could balloon to $35 trillion, a new report estimates.
