A consequence of a warming world is prolonged dry spells and periods of drought that can lead to infectious diseases like cholera.
While climate migration may be on the rise in Canada, it has been disproportionately impacting Indigenous people and communities for years.
Part of the 2021 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded for work modeling Earth’s climate using its chaotic, complex weather. To scientists, chaos lies in the gray zone between randomness and predictability.
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.
Visualising climate change data in accessible ways can help convince audiences from all backgrounds about the urgency of the climate crisis.
Australia may warm by 4°C or more this century, the IPCC has found. As these IPCC authors explain, there is no going back from some changes in the climate system.
As global travel resumes, now is the perfect time to establish new conversations for what ethical travel might look like.
We are at a tipping point between high-carbon transport and a new world of fewer cars and more walking and cycling.
As the climate changes, the ocean is also changing. And that’s putting our health at risk.
Climate change is even worse than we expected - so is now the time for conservationists to take extreme measures to stem the extinction crisis?
Colonialism, political turmoil and unmet citizen promises all lie behind the rise of attacks on foreign-run fossil fuel plants in Mozambique.
An accurate seafloor map can improve oceanographic and climate models, secure marine navigation, inform defence operations, and guide environmental decisions.
These giant predators are helping solve the mystery of Earth’s cooling shift some 50 million years ago.
Which is worse, dry heat or wet heat? Both, says an exercise physiologist.
Rain near Japan triggered a heat wave in North America. To know our future, we have a lot to learn about what drives extreme weather.
Two new NASA missions – VERITAS and DAVINCI+ – are headed to Venus. The missions will use radar and a probe to learn about Earth’s hard-to-study and potentially prophetic neighbor.
Using remnants of fossilized trees, scientists and an artist figured out what the forest looked like long before humans existed.
‘Thirsty air’ can create rapid and devastating drought – new research offers hope we might be able to see it coming in advance.
As public funding disappears, corporations have moved to the head of the table of higher education.
