Saving the Great Barrier Reef is not about throwing money at it – what matters is how the dollars are spent.
Inoculating trees with an edible fungi can produce more protein per hectare than pasture-raised beef, while reforesting, storing carbon and restoring biodiversity.
Recent estimates put atmospheric methane at 1,900 parts per billion – close to triple its pre-industrial average.
Plan to cut emissions quickly, use offsets sparingly and set broader goals for improving society.
Extreme heat over 50°C is likely to become more common, giving us yet another reason for Australia to act fast on climate change.

The sheer scale of emissions from the expansion, and projects linked, to it will make achieving 2030 emission targets much harder for Western Australia and by extension, Australia and the world.
We need new experiments to model Earth’s climate if global warming is stabilised at 1.5°C. A new paper explains why.
In Canada, milk is available in jugs, cartons, bags and glass bottles. A new analysis reveals which type of container has the smallest environmental footprint — from container production to disposal.
Increased use of freight trains can ease the HGV driver crisis and improve the air quality, research shows.
