The government is calling on experts in the UK to help scope a special report on climate change. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is producing the report which will set out the feasibility of limiting rise in temperatures to 1.5C and the changes needed to achieve the target. It will also cover land […]

China’s carbon emissions from fossil fuels and cement production may have been overestimated by 14%. That’s according to a new report by scientific researchers. Published in the journal Nature it estimates China’s CO2 emissions totalled 2.49 gigatonnes (Gt) in 2013 – 14% less than previously thought. The authors said the main cause is due to the estimation of emissions in […]

Damage to all continents as a result of climate change will be “irreversible” after 2100 unless world nations can reverse the amount of emissions pumped into the atmosphere. That’s the stark warning from the UN’s climate research body, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Its Synthesis Report released yesterday sums up the findings of its […]

It is clear the UK must “heed” the warning of climate scientists and avoid “downgrading” its plans to slash greenhouse gas emissions, MPs said in a report today.
