Debunking science denial in the wrong way can end up reinforcing it. Here’s how to cut through make the facts stick.
Climate warming is predicted to intensify rainfall patterns. But new research suggests this could even happen within individual storms, as warmer weather makes them more likely to contain short intense bursts.
NOAA review reveals that difficult-to-explain slowdown in higher temperatures from global warming was based on faulty data.
Species facing the blitz of accelerating, human-driven change don’t always cope well. Birds are among the most visible windows into this world of vulnerability.
Cutting soot emissions may be fashionable but it won’t stabilise global temperatures
Climate change models predict higher chances of severe rain for Texas and other places in the US, but linking climate and extreme weather is still an immature science, says Texas state climatologist.
Why we should look at emissions based on consumption rather than geography.
New analysis shows that warmer ocean temperatures in the Pacific are creating more intense typhoons.
Meet the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation.
Unless Africa can manage the effects of climate change, the agricultural future for many Africans looks bleak.
The latest heatwaves in India have claimed at least 1,100 lives.
Unless climate change can be mitigated, or farmers can find ways to adapt, the future for coffee production looks bleak.
Climate change is one of the biggest threats to the world’s wildlife, but recent projects provide hope that we’ll be able to help species adapt.
Economic studies on the costs of climate action share a common message: action on climate change is cheap, and delaying it will be costly.
Nearly half of 200 Australian species are threatened by climate change, according to new research, including the iconic mountain pygmy-possum.
It’s rare for research to have an immediate impact on policy, but lessons learnt from a successful venture in Queensland can show how it can be done.
2C is the officially agreed safe limit for global warming, but a recent expert finds 2C is still in the danger zone.
The risks of rising carbon emissions means fossil fuel firms need new strategies now - for the sake of their businesses as well as the planet.
This month Canada revealed its post-2020 climate target as 30% below 2005 levels by 2030. But current policies make it unlikely Canada will achieve the target within the country.
