EXCERPT: At the rate that humans are stuffing carbon into the atmosphere, the planet may suffer irreversible damage that could be felt tens of thousands of years, a new study has warned. Discussions on climate should go beyond what happened in the past 150 years and their impact on the world’s warming and the resulting sea level rise by this century’s end – and instead consider the longer-term effects, urged the authors. Paleoclimatologist and study lead author Peter Clark warned that the effects of climate change on Earth will be felt for thousands of generations....

EXCERPT: The American Southwest has started its predicted shift into a drier climate. A recent study concluded that nearly all needleleaf evergreen trees in the region will die by 2100 because of the combined effects of prolonged drought and climate change. The prediction covers the forests of Utah, Arizona, Colorado and New Mexico. The research team from the University of Delaware utilized various scenarios and models in the study, including the carbon emission limits set during the Paris climate change conference in late 2015....
