A forest professor tells his experience on the hardships of putting out peat fires in Indonesia
The boreal forest is being reshaped by wildfire. As climate change intensifies wildfire activity, the boreal forest will likely become a carbon source.
A giant ocean fish swims into the heart of industrial Port Kembla looking for food. What if we take its presence, a few km from an ancient, living midden, as a symbol of both new and old ways to learn in the age of the Anthropocene?
The research has been done. The evidence is in. We know how to create cities that are sustainable, liveable and affordable. But we have yet to apply that knowledge widely across Australian cities.
Peruvian glaciers have shrunk by 25% since 1987, causing water shortages in rural villages. But ancient technology could help manage this precious resource.
Doctors have long taken up global issues, from nuclear war to ozone depletion and climate change, and helped shift the course of history.
As our planet warms, the number of air-conditioning units worldwide is expected to triple by 2050 – yet their use drives climate change. So how can we break the cycle?
Rainforest species didn’t co-evolve with fire – and even a low intensity wildfire can kill half the trees.
While the world watches the Brazilian Amazon burn, across the border in Bolivia it’s also ablaze.
Your next flight could be the single biggest contribution to global warming you make all year. Experts imagine how we might travel in future, without the ‘flygskam’.
The use of fossil fuels has to end and be replaced by sustainable energy as quickly as possible. The Paris Agreement was a good start but states continuing to work together is key.
White nationalists in the US and Europe are appropriating the language of environmentalism.

Populism focuses on charismatic individuals. Environmentalism is all about collective action on collective solutions. How do they come together?
New Zealand is small and generates a tiny fraction of global greenhouse gas emissions, but investment in cutting emissions is important and could influence other, larger countries.
Environmental charities are worried about speaking out about climate change during the upcoming federal campaign for fear Elections Canada will consider their activities as “partisan.”
