"Efforts to restrict access to the world's temperate regions, like Trump's immigration policy, will be a defining political issue of the next century."
"Temperatures will plunge up to 40 degrees below normal at core of arctic blast."
"During daylight hours, plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen through photosynthesis, and at night only about half that carbon is then released through respiration. However, plants still remain a net carbon sink, meaning they absorb more than they emit.
"Currently, around 25 per cent of carbon emissions from the use of fossil fuels is being taken up and stored by plants, which is good, as it helps reduce the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere," ANU researcher Owen Atkin said. "Our work suggests that this positive contribution of plants may decline in the future as they begin to respire more as the world warms."
"The demand for atomic energy is in decline. But before the country can walk away from its plants, there's six decades' worth of waste to deal with."
"With the Arctic warming rapidly, ice loss in Greenland is accelerating and may soon be a major factor in rising sea levels, according to a new study."
"Weather and climate are different."
