New research has revealed the scale of the carbon-storage potential of the seabeds around Canada, conservation efforts must take this new data into account.
In a big-target strategy, characterised by a truck load of negativity, as well as laced with a dash of policy adventurism, Peter Dutton is taking the Liberals right back to Tony Abbott’s days.
Howling winds take sea salt from the Southern Ocean and lay it down in Antarctica as snow, then ice. Hidden in these ice cores is a warning about Australian fire seasons.

As other sectors shun fossil fuel sponsors, sport is becoming the final frontier.
This is the one area of life where the link between good information and good decisions has broken down.
The most comprehensive assessment yet of a powerful greenhouse gas shows which countries are driving the increase, and which ones are successfully cutting emissions.
