POPSChina; a climate saint or sinner? For instance, the study says China runs an "ecological deficit" with the rest of the world, because its footprint is twice its land area. By that assessment, it is a worse offender than some much richer countries that use more resources per head but have larger land areas - including the US.

POPS Arctic Ice Pack Diminishing With about a third of the world’s population—and 25 percent of Americans—living within 300 feet of an ocean coastline, sea level rise is a big deal. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, made up of leading climate scientists, sea levels have risen some 3.1 millimeters per year since 1993. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) reports that low-lying island nations, especially in equatorial regions, have been hardest hit by this phenomenon, and some are threatened with total disappearance. Rising seas have already swallowed up two uninhabited islands in the Central Pacific. On Samoa, thousands of residents have moved to higher ground as shorelines have retreated by as much as 160 feet. And islanders on Tuvalu are scrambling to find new homes as salt water intrusion has made their groundwater undrinkable while increasingly strong hurricanes and ocean swells have devastated shoreline structures.

POPSIncredible World Wildlife Fund Posters From Around the World WWF’s ultimate goal is to build a future where people live in harmony with nature. Here are a couple of the messages: “Preserve your world. Preserve yourself.” “Global Warming is changing the world’s climate rapidly. Icebergs are melting, oceans are rising, nature is revolting. Act now, conserve energy and treat the planet with respect, or we’ll have a world at sea.” “Animals around the world are losing their habitats due to climate change. By choosing a hybrid or fuel-efficient car, you can help prevent this. Take action now.” “Save the world with a few coins” “For Nature, small animals are as important as the big ones.” “A single can of dissolvent, or tin of paint, can pollute millions of liters of water.” “Building a single golf course puts thousands of trees at stake.” “Where is your home?” http://www.wwf.org/

POPSUnwrapping The EU Climate Package You may say that these are anomalies against the trend, but we seem to have an awful lot of anomalies and not very much trend. "Isn't it true that we are relying on predictions from computer models which are increasingly at odds with reality, and that based on those predictions we are putting in place policies which will do huge damage to European economies, and impoverish our grandchildren?". The guy from the WWF booed. Commissioner Dimas muttered a long reply which contained a lot about the IPCC and the Stern report, nothing at all about the actual climate data . And a footnote on sea ice. Two months ago there was no sea ice south of Greenland. Today my jet flew over the North Atlantic about 400 nm south of the south cape of Greenland, and there was sea ice as far as the eye could see, extending all the way to Newfoundland. This hasn't been seen for many years. A very strong La Nina indeed, helped along by the eerily-prolonged solar minimum.

POPSS. Africa Will Kill Elephants To Control Population Amid Threaten Tourist Boycotts He said elephants earned about 18.6 billion rands (US$2.42 billion; €1.62 billion) a year from tourists and only 1.14 billion rands (US$148 million; €99 million) in ivory, hunting and sales. "Elephants are worth much more alive than dead," he said. Still, Scholes said, it was "quite likely" that other countries would follow South Africa's lead and using killing to control elephant populations, even eventually in East Africa, once the numbers which have stabilized begin to increase. "I see little alternative to doing so," he said.
