Doomed: Phoenix Arizona Sits Squarely in Climate Change Crosshairs | Alternet
Doomed: Phoenix Arizona Sits Squarely in Climate Change Crosshairs | Alternet
"Phoenix’s pyramid of complexities looks shakier than most because it stands squarely in the crosshairs of climate change. The area, like much of the rest of the American Southwest, is already hot and dry; it’s getting ever hotter and drier, and is increasingly battered by powerful storms. Sandy and Katrina previewed how coastal cities can expect to fare as seas rise and storms strengthen. Phoenix pulls back the curtain on the future of inland empires. If you want a taste of the brutal new climate to come, the place to look is where that climate is already harsh, and growing more so -- the aptly named Valley of the Sun."

Study: Planet's Lungs Under Assault From Climate Change | Common Dreams
Study: Planet's Lungs Under Assault From Climate Change | Common Dreams
"A recent NASA-led study shows how areas of the Amazon rainforest, often referred to as the lungs of the planet, are victims of climate change, suffering persistent effects of droughts, which may change "the structure and function" of these important ecosystems."
