The Antarctic ice sheet’s future depends how a chain of events plays out. A new study finds the evidence points in one direction.
Papua New Guinea’s frost disaster suggests heat and drought aren’t the only symptoms of a changing climate.
The clam fills a crucial gap in our records of what the reef was like before industrial-era global warming.
Governments must stop treating climate action as merely an aspirational goal. It is an absolute imperative.
Keeping aging coal plants open, building new gas plants and choices about pollution controls affect electricity bills. Pollution adds health costs and climate damage that may not appear on those bills.
Renowned wine regions from Australia to South Africa are battling increasingly fierce fire seasons.
Over the past 12 months, the federal government has approved multiple fossil fuel projects and cut climate science funding.
Global warming is set to surpass the 1.5°C limit if governments worldwide fail to act.
The world is likely to pass 1.5°C of warming. Africa faces worse heat, drought and floods, but faster cuts to emissions can still limit the overshoot damage.
Exceeding 1.5 C of global warming is a giant warning flag telling us not to give up, but to redouble our efforts to slam on the brakes on climate change.
Gas is now flowing from the vast – and controversial – fossil fuel project.
It threatens to compound the worst effects of climate change.
Villagers are picking up the pieces after a catastrophic flash flood ripped through the region.
It’s no longer possible to hold climate change to 1.5°C. But it’s not game over – it’s game on.
From global temperature records to drought risk in New Zealand, the developing climate pattern could have far-reaching consequences.
A new study reveals what unsustainable construction practices are costing our climate – and what must change.
These underwater disasters can trigger coral bleaching and massive fish kills.
Fossil-fuel dependence, the costs of adapting to a changing climate and the transition to cleaner energy are all driving up costs.
Scientists have been monitoring the reef’s health for the past 40 years.
