The Global Warming Diet: Food Climate Connections
(60 minutes, ReadyTalk)
For this inaugural talk in Sustainable UCAR's Topics in Sustainability series, Cordero focuses on food, how it is grown, where it comes from, and how changing one's diet can reduce carbon emissions as effectively as buying a new fuel-efficient car. Sustainable UCAR is the resource for best practices in sustainability at NCAR & UCAR, coordinating efforts that support a healthy environment, social equity, and enhanced organizational productivity.

MOPITT Instrument - Multimedia Gallery
(illustrations and videos)
MOPITT (Measurements of Pollution in the Troposphere) is an instrument flying on NASA's EOS Terra spacecraft. NCAR scientists and their international colleagues developed and run MOPITT to measure the global distributions of carbon monoxide (CO) and methane (CH4) in the troposphere. CO also serves as a tracer for other kinds of air pollution.

Arctic Ice Retreating More Quickly than Computer Models Project - Multimedia Gallery
(animations, illustrations)
Arctic sea ice is melting at a significantly faster rate than projected by even the most advanced computer models, a new study concludes. The research, by scientists at NCAR and the University of Colorado's National Snow and Ice Data Center, shows that the Arctic's ice cover is retreating more rapidly than estimated by any of the 18 computer models used by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in preparing its 2007 assessments.
