Invasive species such as deer, pigs and rabbits might help boost native predator populations.
When people first came to Australia 65,000 years ago, the Earth was in an ice age. Then the seas rose, drought and floods came – and still people endured.
One way to protect our ecosystems is to confer legal rights on them. This idea is at the heart of the ‘rights of nature’ movement – but Australia has few examples of this principle in action.
Did the enormous West Antarctic Ice Sheet collapse the last time global temperatures were 1.5°C above preindustrial levels? The answer lay in the DNA of an octopus.
With a record hot summer expected, will rooftop solar cover our need to be cool?
Grassfires are normal in central and northern Australia. But fast-growing invasive grasses are supercharging grassfires – and this summer looks like it will be big.
Australia’s federal government has been hollowed out in recent decades. But states can – and still do – deliver. That’s why they are the main drivers of climate action.
Trains once carried most of our freight. Could a return to rail help us meet our emissions cutting goals?
Legally binding deals struck with landholders can help protect and restore the environment over the long term.
Every two years, we get an updated plan for the future of Australia’s main grid. Under the new plan, coal vanishes even faster.
Yes, there was some progress at COP28. But the international community is not taking this enormous climate challenge as seriously as it should.
Herbicides and pesticides wash downriver from farms and towns – and some of these chemicals are taken up by oysters.
What happens underground doesn’t stay underground. If we overexploit groundwater and kill off its species, we put surface species – including us – at risk.
This year, China has built renewables at a truly staggering pace. But can its tech-first approach actually cut emissions – and find common ground at COP28?
Banning public funding for overseas fossil fuel projects will boost Australia’s climate leadership. But can it take the next step and do it domestically?
Nature, everyone agrees, is in trouble. But can Australia’s new market-based mechanism help?
El Niño usually brings hot, dry weather to Australia. But the rains that have drenched eastern Australia are normal too.
For the proposed Great Koala National Park to actually help koalas, logging should stop and plantations should be added to the park.
Electric arc furnaces can use up to 100% scrap steel as its raw material, resulting in a significant reduction in emissions.
