There’s grumbling in the bush about hosting big new renewable projects to power cities. We can do this smarter.
Power prices surged two years ago – and now are falling sharply. Why does it take so long to see relief?
Cyclones and hurricanes are getting more intense. But introducing new categories of storm may not be the answer.
We don’t yet fully understand what global climate tipping points mean for Australia. But we know enough to conclude the impacts of passing one or more tipping points must now be considered.
The six-year-late UK national action plan for the sustainable use of pesticides is finally due but experts doubt it will be radical enough.
Maths plays a crucial role in new research which finds that bats “leapfrog” their way home at night.
Introduced water buffalo and camels trash native plants – don’t they? Our research shows megafauna herbivores have the same impact wherever they are.
A century ago, millions of koalas were killed for their fur. The backlash was fierce.
We’re getting faster at building renewables – but we’ll have to speed up even more to reach our 2030 target of 82% clean energy
Grassroots activism can drive governments to take action. The recent decision to ban disposable vapes in the UK hinged on creative collaboration between communities, councils and decision-makers.

The health of our soils is poor – and getting worse. Here’s why that matters and what we can do about it
If a colony of flying foxes sets up in your backyard, you might be annoyed – or concerned. But these gentle bats are vital to our forests.
Computer data centres produce vast amounts of heat that often gets wasted - now that’s being harnessed to warm swimming pools and improve overall energy efficiency.
How’s the humidity? Australia’s east coast has been hit by intense humidity this summer. Here’s why – and why it’s a risk
A recently discovered palm tree has an unusual survival strategy - it flowers and fruits beneath the ground
This powerful new eco drama suggests “cli-fi” could play a crucial role in climate communication.
The new threat from cyclones can come from behind you – flooding from more intense rainfall.
We crave certainty in our weather forecasts. But that’s only possible for big weather events such as cyclones and major storms. Everything else is probability.
