Toronto and Region Conservation (TRCA), which focuses on protecting the natural environment has come out with four different eco-friendly gift ideas that includes gifts for nature lovers, clean air gifts, gifts for pioneers and for local history enthusiasts.
Peatlands or wetlands in tropical regions remove large amount of organic carbon. But, now-a-days, human activities have an impact on these wetlands. Large-scale fires, triggered by drainage projects in combination with repeated droughts, can release large amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which ultimately leads to global warming. Prof. Florian Siegert and his research group at GeoBio-Center, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat (LMU) have estimated the volume of peat burned in fires with accuracy, with the help of laser-based measurements.
In December 2008, the Brazilian National Plan on Climate Change was launched. This plan focused on reducing carbon emissions by the application of its well established programs and action plans.
DuPont is sponsoring the Climate Change exhibition on its worldwide tour, currently at the Papalote Children’s Museum in Mexico City, Mexico.

A climate conference will be conducted at Denmark tentatively during the month of December 2009, which will focus on deriving a new agreement for preventing climate change.
Ahead of the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, GreenProsperity, a group of environmental organizations at Ontario has come up with a plan to reduce global warming and suitable a suitable action plan to control climate change.
A new study of Antarctica's climate history shows that in some brief warm periods between ice ages, temperatures were up to 6oC warmer than the present day. The findings, reported this week in the journal Nature, could help us understand more about rapid climate changes.
A major survey on Australian attitudes to climate change released today by the United States Studies Centre (USSC) at the University of Sydney mirrors recent polling among Americans.
The strongest evidence yet that the rise in atmospheric CO2 emissions continues to outstrip the ability of the world's natural 'sinks' to absorb carbon is published this week in Nature Geoscience.
A large-scale 3-D walk-through exhibition about climate change and the Antarctic, which opens this Friday at the University of Sydney, is a visually sophisticated means for conveying critical information about climate change.
