The photographs show how climate change is disrupting our marine ecosystems – sometimes in ways previously unknown to marine scientists.
The tropics are projected to face almost daily dangerous heat by 2100. And “extremely dangerous” heat that’s almost unheard of today will occur more often in several regions.
Hot rooftops and a looming skills shortage – these are just a few challenges faced by crucial yet undervalued air-conditioning repair people.
Newspapers were writing about climate change more than a century ago. Here’s why it’s taken so long to start tackling it.
Our ability to cool the planet takes humanity into uncharted territory. In a new paper published today, researchers discuss the big unknowns in a post net-zero world.
It’s not just mosquitos. Flooding, extreme heat and other climate-related hazards are bringing people into contact with pathogens more often, and affecting people’s ability to fight off disease.
If global health care was a country, it would be the world’s fifth largest emitter. There are simple ways health care can reduce its emissions, starting with scans and gases.
The findings underscore the urgency of limiting global warming to below 1.5°C, to avert the most catastrophic climate harms.
Extreme downpours caught people off guard from Las Vegas to Kentucky in July 2022.
Tidal marshes can build up their soil to keep pace with sea-level rises – up to a point. It turns out the point when the marsh is drowned matches the average rise when global warming exceeds 1.5°C.
Labor won’t concede to the Greens’ core demands on the bill, but a climate “trigger” on new developments could ensure the bill has real force.
Global heating may be making the weather systems behind heatwaves more common in Europe.
Many wildlife species face an uncertain future due to recurring, severe drought.
Summer heat may be far from people’s minds here in Australia. But Europe’s ordeal is yet another sign changes in Earth’s climate have already reached dangerous levels.
For Pacific Islands, climate change trumps all other threats to their security. While they welcome Australia’s new emission targets, this is an issue of survival that demands greater ambition.
The strongest signal of our changing climate flares while most of us are asleep.
Managed retreat is already common in flood-prone areas, but what about in neighborhoods at high risk from wildfires? Here are four ways communities can pull back for safety.
Messages about climate change must be adapted to people’s histories, differences and expectations.
My research shows how urban design can make it harder for women in some countries to make sustainable choices.
