Blue carbon is stored in mangroves, seagrass and sediments. Discussions at the UN Ocean Decade conference reiterate the importance of preserving existing sea floor habitats, before it’s too late.
Weather forecasting is improving at a great rate, even though climate change could be making it tougher.
Swifts migrate long distances yet face many threats along their journey. Lack of nest sites is a big problem but installing swift boxes and bricks won’t be the only solution.
The big question: Would climate engineering like sending reflective particles into the stratosphere or brightening clouds help reduce the national security risks of climate change or make them worse?
Cement and fossil fuel production has reached unprecedented levels, with most of the emission growth traceable to a relatively small number of companies.
As temperatures and rainfall patterns change, the time that trees produce catkins could change and affect wildlife that rely on catkins for food.
New research reveals our understanding of dust’s role in the environment is far from settled.
Bill C-372 does not curtail free speech and, if anything, demonstrates how banning fossil fuel ads does not go nearly far enough.
Attitudes towards climate policies partly depend on a consideration of future, as yet unborn, descendants. Women tended to show more ability to think about how future generations could benefit.
Their incredible resilience means they are becoming part of the UK landscape.
Research shows that men and women have different perspectives on climate, with huge implications in terms of policymaking. For that reason, diverse leadership is essential.
The environment sector is notoriously dominated by white men. But diverse voices and critical discussions about climate policies are key to making good, inclusive decisions about the future.
Climate stories that focus on solutions are more likely to inspire positive environmental action.
Our expert in disaster recovery and climate change adaptation calls for a longer-term response to conflict zones affected by severe flooding, such as Libya and Pakistan.
Climate change puts pressure on British butterflies and moths - sometimes pushing them to the edges of their geographical range or shifting the timing of their life cycle so they can’t feed.
As new climate-related cases are brought to court, our expert outlines key aspects that could change the legal landscape.
Deeper ocean habitats (30-150 metres) are a key feeding ground for critically endangered hawksbill turtles.
Climate scientist Mark Maslin pairs up with comedian Jo Brand to explain the urgency of the climate crisis. Together, they find that humour cuts through in ways that plain facts just can’t.
Many seabird colonies around UK coastlines struggle to breed because the sandeels they feed on have been overfished. The upcoming closure of sandeel fisheries will be good news for marine wildlife.
