Researchers quantified emissions and uptake from degraded and deforested in Asia, finding more reasons to fight deforestation.
The feedback loops of global warming are kicking in.
Biologists have located the world's tallest tropical tree, a 94.1-metre (309-foot) specimen in Borneo. I
Scientists who studied sediment cores drilled from the ocean floor off the Antarctic coast, have found on subsequent analysis fossil pollens that came from a tropical forest. Most likely, the continent was covered by rainforest some 52 million years ago. The researchers involved warn however that by the end of the century, ice from the […]
Biodiversity helps keep the world’s ecosystem in balance, and if threatened, it could bring forth destabilization leading to a chain reaction of events, mostly irreversible. Crops would fail, pests and viral infections might surface, CO2 retention might decrease and more – basically, the Earth will have a tougher time fending for itself if its biodiversity […]
