The new values are a worrying outcome that no one wants, but one we must still grapple with.
The response to COVID-19 suggests how we can leverage entrepreneurial approaches to climate change.
Efficient technologies can save Indonesians not only billions of rupiah but also avoid the need to built 50 power plants by 2030.
The bestselling novel turned film exposes paradoxes of fixing a broken system with its own tools. As we collectively meditate on the world’s problems, why not imagine better worlds?
Talking about energy transitions could help overcome the impasse we seem to have reached on climate change.
Over the next 50 years, the arid zone – containing the areas of true desert – is projected to expand well into the Murray-Darling Basin and almost entirely envelope the Lake Eyre Basin.
The risks to nature from man-made global warming – and the imperative to act – are clear.
The wet and low-lying East Siberian Arctic is likely to be a major methane source in the coming decades.
The heatwave highlights the connectedness of our climate systems: from the monsoon tropics to the southernmost continent.
In a rapidly warming world, temperature increases are a challenge to mental well-being. A group of economists quantified the relationship.
The policy response to COVID-19 has been dramatic, unlike the response to climate change, for several reasons. But it shows there’s hope for real action on climate change.
Future extremes from the Indian Ocean will be acting on top of global warming, giving a double whammy effect, like the record-breaking heat and drought we saw in 2019.
When offspring become more “costly” to make, mothers make fewer of them. And these offspring start life with fewer energy reserves.
Perhaps 2°C doesn’t sound like much, but if you look through history, 2°C temperature changes have had huge effects on the planet and people.
The study is the first of its kind to gauge how people were impacted by the bushfire crisis and how it changed their views on a range of subjects, from climate change to the government response.
Weaker winds and higher temperatures are making airlines less efficient.
Global cooperation is essential if climate action is to be effective, amid the right-wing onslaught against multilateralism.
Our research shows the Antarctic could be closer to a tipping point than previously thought.
The global warming potential of different greenhouse gases is often poorly understood, distorting which are the biggest concern.
