Native bees pollinate many of Australia’s unique plants and help entire ecosystems thrive.
These Pacific meetings are a curtain raiser for the annual UN climate meetings in Turkey next month.
New research in the Kruger National Park has found that rising CO₂ in the atmosphere helps savanna grasses grow when less water is available.
Wildfires are a growing issue in the UK, with incidents escalating in 2026.
A coal mine in the Hunter Valley region has sparked debate among politicians, environmental advocates and local residents.
If fossil fuel companies misled the public about the dangers of their products, should they be required to pay for damages from climate-related disasters?
The Antarctic ice sheet’s future depends how a chain of events plays out. A new study finds the evidence points in one direction.
As hundreds of thousands more EVs hit Australian roads, is our charging infrastructure up to scratch?
If all the ice in the Wilkes Subglacial Basin melted, it would raise global sea levels 3 to 4 metres. It happened before – at temperatures we’re heading towards
Papua New Guinea’s frost disaster suggests heat and drought aren’t the only symptoms of a changing climate.
The climate science behind 2026’s super El Niño.
A regional permafrost map can’t tell a builder if a particular foundation or road will survive as temperatures rise. Engineers need to see beneath the surface to find the weaknesses.
The clam fills a crucial gap in our records of what the reef was like before industrial-era global warming.
For decades, we couldn’t trace the link between new fossil fuel projects and their damage to people and planet. But now we can.
To survive dry spells, trees stop the water-rich process of photosynthesis. When nature’s natural carbon capture machine grinds to a halt entire forests end up producing more CO₂ than they absorb.
With extreme weather and glacier melt predicted to increase, neighbouring nations will need to act together to prevent deaths.
These mobile power systems could be a lifeline for remote, island and disaster-prone places.
The super El Niño could cause 31,400 extra heat deaths in Nigeria alone. Heat warnings, cooling centres and worker protections could help save lives.
Droughts and floods reduce agricultural production, disrupt supply chains, and limit families’ access to fruits, vegetables, and other fresh foods.
