Knowing an animal’s normal lifespan is hugely important for conservation efforts, but it’s harder to find out than you’d think.
Insects are vital to sustaining life on Earth – and their numbers are falling fast. So consider ditching the fly spray and see what you can do to help.
Carbon emissions will hit a record high for the second year in a row, but there is a small silver lining: the rate of emissions growth has slowed dramatically.
Synthetic biology lets us explore places where evolution has never gone, to help meet humanity’s food needs in a future shaped by climate change.
Measurements and modelling have found nitrous oxide emissions, a greenhouse gas 265 times more potent than carbon dioxide, are significantly higher than previously reported.
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria help tropical phytoplankton absorb carbon dioxide, creating a biological pump in the oceans.
Penny Whetton made the lives of those around her richer, more interesting and more human. Her death leaves a massive void.
It’s long been known that our diet choices help determine our carbon footprint. But do you know which of your favourite foods are the most water-hungry?
Australian supermarkets and fast food chains will soon be stocking a homegrown meat alternative that tastes and feels like meat and even sizzles on the barbecue.
The IPCC report says extreme sea level events that used to hit once a century will occur once a year in many places by 2050. This situation is inevitable, even if emissions are dramatically curbed.
Pemanasan iklim akan mempengaruhi cara gelombang yang menghantam lebih dari 50% garis pantai di dunia, meningkatkan risiko erosi dan banjir.
Recently, magnetic compasses at Greenwich pointed directly at true north for the first time in 360 years. This is currently happening in Western Australia too. But what does it mean?
Growth in demand for healthy and sustainable products could make Australia’s food and agribusiness sector more valuable than mining.
A warming climate will affect the way waves hit over 50% of the world’s coastlines, increasing erosion and the risk of flooding.
We don’t know enough about the carbon footprint of vegan foods, and that needs to change.
Corals, mangroves and seagrass habitats have been affected by extreme weather events, and some may never recover.
When Neil Armstrong stepped on to the Moon 50 years ago this month, Australians saw the images first. Australia even defied bad weather to bring the historic images to the world.
For the first time scientists have located the home galaxy of a one-off fast radio burst. Here’s how they did it – and what they learned about the galaxy.
Severe coral bleaching may have been the crucial factor in bringing home the reality of climate change for many people.
