INSIGHT: Scientists: Climate factor linked to carbon uptake

SAO PAULO, Brazil (2015) A low carbon economy is not only feasible, but inevitable, says one of Brazil’s best known climate scientists ahead of 2015’s largest gathering of climate researchers. “It is technologically and economically feasible to profoundly reshape the global energy systems towards renewable energy sources and adoption of energy efficiency at scale,” said Carlos Nobre, Director of the National Centre of Monitoring and Alerts of Natural Disasters at Brazil’s Ministry of...

Arctic climate change – it's recent carbon emissions we should fear, not ancient methane 'time bombs'  The Conversation UK

>In many parts of the world, climate change exacerbates existing inequalities – between men and women, rich and poor, landed and landless. Climate change responses, therefore, should carefully address these forms of vulnerability.

>Current approaches to tackle mosquitoes that spread malaria such as long lasting insecticide treated bed nets (LLINs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) have contributed greatly to the recent success in malaria control.
