Scientists look beyond climate change and El Niño for other factors that heat up Earth Associated Press Scientists look beyond climate change and El Niño for other factors that heat up Earth Michael Mann of the School of Arts & Sciences estimates that about five-sixths of the recent climate warming is from human burning of fossil fuels, with about one-sixth due to a strong El Niño. By stalling on RGGI, here’s what Pa. residents are missing Pennsylvania Capital Star By stalling on RGGI, here’s what Pa. residents are missing A study from the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy at the Weitzman School of Design estimates that the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative could help Pennsylvania reduce CO2 emissions by 225 million tons between 2020 and 2030. Yes, it’s raining more than usual—and climate change and El Niño are two reasons why Yahoo! News Yes, it’s raining more than usual—and climate change and El Niño are two reasons why Michael Mann of the School of Arts & Sciences explains how human-caused warming from fossil fuel burning is impacting rain patterns and persistent weather extremes.

Michael Mann of the School of Arts & Sciences says that climate warming had been muted by sulphate aerosol pollution, but that the science was well-known enough to anticipate more warming given the continuation of fossil fuel burning. When summer weather turns deadly: ‘It was like a biblical event,’ says man whose parents died in flooding People.com When summer weather turns deadly: ‘It was like a biblical event,’ says man whose parents died in flooding Michael Mann of the School of Arts & Sciences says that a window of opportunity is closing to avert catastrophic levels of climate change. Could we breed cows that emit less methane? Penn Vet’s Dipti Pitta is investigating whether it’s possible to selectively breed dairy cows to have more efficient microbiomes.
