It’s often challenging to live up to your new year’s resolutions – but becoming greener is surprisingly easy.
Hydrogen will not be used to heat UK homes in the future in any meaningful way.
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?
Every two years, we get an updated plan for the future of Australia’s main grid. Under the new plan, coal vanishes even faster.
You may have seen contestants on reality shows like “Survivor” make fire using friction, but do you know the physics behind the process?
Yes, there was some progress at COP28. But the international community is not taking this enormous climate challenge as seriously as it should.
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?
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.
New emissions projections bode well for Australia’s climate efforts – but our fossil fuel exports continue apace.
Carbon credits must be scrutinised – and none more so than credits for taking grazing animals off arid rangelands.
Using a ‘grid of grids’ network, New Zealand’s growing electric vehicle fleet could contribute to national energy resiliency, feeding electricity back into the system during peak demand.
To protect nearly a third of Australia by decade’s end will mean expanding our national parks, Indigenous Protected Areas and protection across private land.
