Greenland’s conditions were once similar to those of a greenhouse. Volcanoes swelled the land, constricted seaways and gigatonnes of greenhouse gases were released into the atmosphere.
Adopting more environmentally conscious farm models would safeguard our agricultural exports, cut emissions and help protect nature.
Corals in the Persian Gulf are tough - they can withstand temperatures that would kill corals elsewhere. And there’s good news: it’s easy to cross-breed their heat-tolerance genes into other corals.
We’ve identified three frog species very likely to already be extinct. Another four species on our list are still surviving, but not likely to make it to 2040 without help.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison says he is ‘listening’ to a woman quietly holding a climate action sign outside parliament. But politicians have a vested interest in downplaying disruptive protests.
The remarkably resilient structure is in good health, for now. But work is needed to ensure it is preserved for future generations.
From Fiji to France to Central Australia, stories abound of lands lost beneath the sea. Some are likely founded on millennia-old memories of coastal submergence, offering us clues today.

The world is acting on climate change – just not effectively.
Not all forests respond to hotter and drier conditions in the same way.
As the pandemic pushes healthcare online, it’s time to stop overlooking the environmental impacts.

BHP is banking profits from its failing assets, while washing its hands of the responsibility for its past and ongoing contribution to climate change.
New research shows how the Montreal Protocol protected vegetation, helping keep carbon out of the atmosphere.
How bad are ticks this year? An expert explains why tick-borne diseases are on the rise.
The amount of climate data available to us is growing exponentially, and is far too much to sort through ourselves. But machines can do this for us.
