WFAE: After multiple court orders, FEMA says it plans to reinstate climate resiliency grants
After multiple court orders, FEMA says it plans to reinstate climate resiliency grants Geneva, Switzerland (WMO) – The Earth’s climate is more out of balance than at any time in observed history, as greenhouse gas concentrations drive continued warming of the atmosphere and ocean and melting of ice, according to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). These rapid and large-scale changes have occurred within a few decades but will have harmful repercussions for hundreds ...

Through continuous long-term measurements of global sea level, scientists can see the ocean’s role in climate and the effects of a changing climate on the ocean. Since 1993, global mean sea level has risen by about 4 inches (10 centimeters). NASA and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) have released a guide that provides resources for adapting to and mitigating impacts of climate change. The guide, Building Alliances for Climate Action, includes various perspectives, stories, insights, and resources about climate change to help individuals and organizations make informed decisions. A large amount of physical evidence shows that carbon dioxide (CO2) is the single most important greenhouse gas in the atmosphere controlling Earth's temperature. This is because CO2, like ozone, N2O, CH4, and chlorofluorocarbons, does not condense and precipitate from the atmosphere at current climate temperatures, whereas water vapor can and does. The leading cause of coral bleaching is rising ocean temperatures due to climate change. Although runoff and pollutants, sunlight, and low tides can impact coral, those impacts normally occur near the shoreline in shallow waters. Clouds and aerosols are two of the most important, but least understood, aspects of climate change. How much do you know about them? Earth has many processes that regulate carbon, atmospheric carbon dioxide and its role in the carbon cycle and climate. How much do you know?
