Reports about an Arctic summertime sans ice due to global warming and natural swings in regional wind patterns are quite alarming. The extent of summer sea ice in the Arctic Ocean reached a record low this week since satellite observations began in 1972, according to the University of Bremen's Institute of Environmental Physics.

Shrinking to its lowest point since satellite observations began in 1972, the area covered by the Arctic sea ice shrank to 4.24 million square kilometers (1.637 square miles) on Sept. 8, according to the University of Bremen's Institute of Environmental Physics.
Natural gas is not as effective as it is used to be thought in improving earth's climatic condition, suggest scientists. Even though natural gas emits far less carbon dioxide than coal, its effectiveness in solving earth's climate woes has been questioned by a new U.S. study.
The majority of Democrats, Republicans and Independent voters all believe that climate change is happening, according to a new poll. Only the Tea Party does not. What does this mean for Republican presidential candidates who want to do well both in the primaries and in the general election?
Weather disasters of 2011 may have been partly caused by global warming, a climate report suggests.
A new study says natural gas would not slow down climate change: natural gas is cleaner, but from a climate perspective, it's complicated.

Global warming and climate change are phenomena that broke the bonds of scientific circles to emerge as a matter of debate between believers and skeptics.
