An analysis of 44 of the 101 most populous "megacities" showed

<blockquote>Jerry Brown warned that President Trump has just made a
"colossal mistake" in gutting the federal government's effort to
combat climate change, which will ignite a response Trump is
unprepared to handle. "It defies science itself," Brown said in a
call ...<br>
"Yes, there is going to be a counter-movement," Brown vowed,
predicting Trump's actions will mobilize environmentalists in a
way President Obama never could. "I have met with many heads of
state, ambassadors. This is a growing movement. President Trump's
outrageous move will galvanize the contrary force. Things have
been a bit tepid [in climate activism]. But this conflict, this
sharpening of the contradiction, will energize those who believe
climate change is an existential threat."<br>
Brown and other big-state governors and mayors are moving swiftly
to fill the global leadership vacuum Trump created with Tuesday's
directive, which stops short of officially pulling the U.S. out of
the Paris climate accord of 2015.<br>

<b>Joint Statement on President's Executive Order on the Clean
Power Plan</b><br>
<b>By the Governors of Washington, Oregon and California and the
Mayors of Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Oakland and Los
Angeles</b><br>
"As the governors of Washington, Oregon and California and the
mayors of Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Oakland and Los
Angeles, we speak today in unified opposition to President Trump's
Executive Order withdraw and rewrite the Clean Power Plan. We
won't let the president's misguided decision limit our region's
economic opportunities or our commitment to doing what's right to
make our cities and states cleaner and healthier for future
generations. <br>
"We speak as a region of over 50 million people with a combined
GDP of $2.8 trillion. There is no question that to act on climate
is to act in our best economic interests. Through expanded climate
policies, we have grown jobs and expanded our economies while
cleaning our air.<br>
"This Order moves our nation in the wrong direction and puts
American prosperity at risk. We will assert our own 21st century
leadership and chart a different course. Climate change is one of
our greatest threats, from more wildfires threatening our homes
and communities to ocean acidification rocking our shellfish
industry to drought hurting our farmers. Too much is at stake –
from our health and safety to our jobs and livelihoods – for us to
move backwards.<br>
"We will honor our commitments to our communities to do what's
right to keep our residents safe, secure, healthy and prosperous
as we accelerate our clean energy economy and put the interest of
our people before those of big polluters. We will continue to
invest in clean energy that creates local jobs and keeps utility
bills low, and we will electrify transportation to provide
convenient, safe, and affordable ways to get around our cities,
and make our neighborhoods healthy and vibrant.<br>
"Our cities and states will continue to assert our leadership and
position our region for economic success. We urge states, cities
and businesses from across the country to join us in leading and
re-affirming our commitment to cut carbon emissions and reverse
the damaging impacts to our communities of unfettered pollution."<br>
Jointly signed by:<br>
California Governor Jerry Brown<br>
Oregon Governor Kate Brown<br>
Washington Governor Jay Inslee<br>
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti<br>
San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee<br>
Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf<br>
Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler<br>
Seattle Mayor Ed Murray<br>

<blockquote> The British primatologist, renowned for her work with
chimpanzees, expressed dismay that Trump and others in his
administration have questioned the scientific basis of climate
change. "Because I'm traveling all over the world 300 days a year,
I have seen the result of climate change and we know, science has
shown, that global temperatures are warming and these so-called
greenhouse gases are blanketing the globe," she said, noting that
ice is melting, sea levels rising and oceans losing their ability
to absorb carbon dioxide...<br>
Speaking with quiet, calm and piercing authority, Goodall
continued: "So being not a scientist in that field I tend to
listen to scientists who do work in that field, like Nicholas
Stern, and I would not dream of refuting the science that shows
climate change is happening, it's happening everywhere, it's
already having devastating effects in many parts of the word and
the droughts are getting worse, flooding's getting worse, storms,
hurricanes are getting more frequent and more violent. And the
main thing is unpredictability: everywhere I go people say well
it's not normally like that at this time of year."<br>

Is It Time to Retreat from Climate Change?</a></b><br>
<blockquote> Battered by storms and sea-level rise, and deprived of
revitalizing sediment from the Mississippi River, its surface area
has shrunk by ninety-eight per cent since 1955, and its remaining
three hundred and twenty acres can flood in little more than a
stiff breeze.<br>
Stanford researchers examined twenty-seven recent cases of managed
retreat affecting twenty-two countries and 1.3 million people.
They found that, regardless of a country's wealth and level of
development, relocations are most likely to happen when a
government and its citizens are in accord. <br>
Most current coastal-adaptation measures focus on protection
(higher seawalls, for instance) or tweaks to development rules,
steps that come at little cost to either individuals or
governments. The barriers to retreat, on the other hand, are much
larger, psychologically, politically, and economically.<br>
Well more than a hundred million people are expected to face
displacement by rising seas before the end of the century. "We're
going to have to think really hard about how and where it happens,
who moves and who stays, and whose values matter most," Mach said.
"In so many ways, it's a perfect unfolding of both the tensions
and the opportunities in adaptation."<br>

<blockquote>Although scientists can't attribute any particular
weather event to climate change, the extreme weather the past two
years in Kansas is consistent with climate change models,
according to Mike Flannigan, a professor of wildland fire at the

The warmer it gets, the more fire you have," Flannigan said.<br>
Farmers and ranchers in Kansas are already dealing with some of
the effects of the air warming, according to Chuck Rice, a
professor of agriculture at Kansas State University. The last
frost of winter arrives on average 10 days sooner than it did 100
years ago, Rice said, and the warming is affecting the moisture
levels in the soil.<br>

Much-needed rain, along with a community effort by farmers and

broke out in Seward County on Thursday...<br>
The 2,500-acre fire is now contained, according to a post by
Seward County Fire Chief Andrew Barkley. The cause of the fire is
under investigation...<br>
"We can not stress enough for residents to clear 100 by 100 feet

"We also can not stress enough during extreme fire danger that
extra caution needs to be observed when working near or around dry

microbes hold key to climate puzzle</a></b><br>
<blockquote>Scientific studies cast new light on the complex role
soil microbes play in affecting ecosystems, atmospheric carbon
levels and the climate.<br>
By Tim Radford<br>
LONDON, 28 March, 2017 − Climate scientists puzzled by the traffic
of carbon between soil and air may have to think more deeply about
the role played by soil microbes − the planet's smallest
inhabitants.<br>
One research team has just found that soil microbes could actually
lighten the colour of arid land soils, to reflect more light and
bounce more radiation energy back into space.<br>
Another has identified an unexpected source of atmospheric carbon:
17% of the soil carbon that gets into the atmosphere from a
floodplain has its origins among micro-organisms at depths of more
than two metres.<br>
And a third group has identified soil bacteria that could help
plants survive drought, and enhance crop yields in drylands such
as Arizona, Israel and the Nile Valley.<br>

<blockquote> A new study published in the Journal of Geophysical
Research warns that 31 to 67 percent of Southern California
beaches are at risk of complete erosion by the year 2100 under
predicted scenarios of sea-level rise of three to six feet. In
addition to devastating the local tourist economy, the lost
beaches will eliminate an important defense for the 18 million
people who live near the coast. The lead author of the study, Sean
Vitousek from the US Geological Survey and the University of
Illinois at Chicago, says massive and costly interventions will be
required to preserve the 310 miles of coastline that's poised to
be affected.<br>
