On a regional scale, global warming exceeded the Paris agreement’s upper climate target in the northern hemisphere.
Ghana is losing forests because of cocoa farming, firewood harvesting, mining and logging.
States could be in for another summer of unhealthy wildfire smoke as ‘zombie fires’ resurface in western Canada and more blazes break out in the dry conditions.
Pope Francis and other Catholic leaders committed to raising awareness of environmental issues draw on centuries of tradition.
Water is everywhere, but freshwater supplies are limited on many Caribbean islands. Rising demand and climate change are worsening water shortages for the people who live here.
If the needs of both parasites and hosts are met by the niche, they can move in. Increasing biodiversity may therefore be a double-edged sword.
When it comes to storing carbon, alpine peatlands are powerhouses. But feral horse grazing and trampling tips the carbon balance in the other direction. We need to protect and restore our peatlands.
These birds are a harbinger of summer – but their arrival, and the seasons, are no longer predictable.
After a year of record-breaking global heat with El Niño, will La Niña bring a reprieve? That depends on where you live and how you feel about hurricanes.
Why is Australia talking about opening new gas fields as a way to reach net zero?
Why have we seen so many extreme floods in recent years? Climate change is supercharging thunderstorms, adding moisture and heat.
Organisms that produce synthetic fuel and suck carbon out of the air are just some of the possibilities of ‘engineering biology’ – if policymakers can shepherd the industry towards success.
Humans and animals can hide from extreme heat. But plants have no escape. To protect our crops from the heat to come will likely mean modifying them.
Your home was designed for another era, here’s what’s needed now.
The new strategy sees gas as crucial to the new Future Made in Australia policy, which includes support for manufacturing and refining critical minerals.
Building ecological grief literacy in workplaces can help environmental professionals manage constant exposure to the many causes of their grieving.
US cities are doing green infrastructure, but in bits and pieces. Today’s climate-driven floods require a much broader approach to create true sponge cities that are built to soak up water.
The climate ‘flickered’ between wet and dry, before finally drying out for good.
Too much pavement and old drainage systems are just two of the problems communities face.
