Holding climate change to 1.5 might be possible – but in the best case, we’ll blow past the limit first and then backpedal.

You might look at the task ahead of weaning ourselves off fossil fuels and despair. But we’ve changed energy sources many times before – and it’s never a straightforward process.
We’ve wasted a lot of time delaying climate action. As the damage becomes ever clearer, it’s time to accelerate the transition.
We’ve become so good at using the Earth’s resources we’re endangering the systems we rely on.
To overcome last winter’s energy crunch, France successfully introduced a 15-point ‘energy sobriety’ plan to cut gas and electricity use and reduce emissions.
Our research has found 30,000 farm dams which could be used as energy storage. Solar by day, hydro by night.
Using agricultural land for both solar and food production presents huge opportunities for Canadian farmers, especially in Alberta.
Our carbon budget is shrinking fast. We crunched the data to find pathways for G20 nations to act faster
Marine heatwaves aren’t just on the surface. They can be at their most destructive when they sweep along the seafloor.
Zimbabwe’s climate action plan is on track to check emissions and promote development. Other countries can learn from it.
Those who think the worst of Europe’s energy crisis is over are getting ahead of themselves.
Australia’s grid will likely get through this angry summer without falling to pieces. But our market operator is worried about the summers after that.
Introduced species and diseases can drive native species into smaller environmental niches – and that could mean change to how we work to conserve them.
Australia is approving coal mine expansions because of their “very small” impact on global heating. It doesn’t stack up.
We used to focus just on protection of vital ecosystems like the reef. But as climate change and other threats accelerate, we need to actively help nature get ready for the heat.
In recent years, the Barrier Reef has had a reprieve – and coral has regrown strongly. But now the reprieve looks to be over and the heat is back on
It may soon be possible to reduce cyclone formation and intensity by spraying particles into the atmosphere above a forming storm. But the technology opens up a can of worms
We’re having a big impact on the planet. But what marks will we leave behind in deep time?
Climate change is ramping up, and with it, so is the rhetoric for action. It’s a fine line to walk between sounding the alarm and being accused of alarmism.
Incrementalism and politics as usual cannot save the Barrier Reef from the largest threat it faces – the heat ramping up from climate change
