Antarctica has been around for fifteen million years, but if humans do not stop burning fossil fuels, the continent could disappear for good. If all the fossil fuels stored within the Earth are burned, [&#8230;]</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>A new analysis reports that China’s carbon emissions could be 20% higher than earlier expectations, which suggest that there is a very high rate of climate change due to this. As it emerges as one of the newest superpower countries in the world, China is now the world’s top contributor of greenhouse gases, which triggers [&#8230;]</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>In an effort to tighten CO2 emissions, the European Union has recently announced that it will forcefully reduce tailpipe-generated carbon dioxide 20 percent by 2015. This move will be imposed on European automakers and those who don&#8217;t comply will pay higher taxes. Therefore, starting with the beginning of 2012, the automakers will have to comply [&#8230;]</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>A recent study performed by two Finnish researchers from Aalto University reveals that people living in the countryside pollute just as much as city dwellers. They used a different approach to fund their study's conclusion, placing the source of CO2 at the consumer site rather than at the production site, like it's been done before.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Since ages, it's been considered that if you burn biomass the net carbon dioxide emission is zero, since the CO2 emitted is equal to the CO2 absorbed in growing plants. A research conducted at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) says otherwise: we should also count those CO2 emissions along with the ones produced by petrol, for example.</p>
