Canadians are no strangers to cold winters, when everything in nature appears to be frozen solid. However, under the ice cover of lakes, many animals remain active during the winter.
Global efforts to reduce emissions requires the participation of all emissions producing countries, including those in the West.
Phrases like ‘climate crisis,’ ‘climate emergency’ or ‘climate justice’ might seem to escalate the urgency, but a large survey shows they don’t help and may actually hurt.
Australia’s emissions-reduction efforts must continue in haste, at large scale. Real change is possible.
The Keystone XL verdict highlights the importance of protecting governments and public bodies from financial liabilities while they work to keep oil and gas in the ground.
In the book Living Hot, Clive Hamilton and George Wilkenfeld argue humanity should stop trying so hard to reduce emissions, and adapt instead. But we must do both.
Many wild fish in Québec have parasites. Is this necessarily a bad thing? How can we limit the proliferation and spread of specific harmful parasites?
We must face a confronting truth: if humanity does not divert from its current course, our generation will likely witness the demise of one of Earth’s great natural wonders.
With Debby’s storm track, much of the East Coast is forecast to get soaked. Climate change also plays a role in the downpours.
Our discovery of a tundra ecosystem, frozen under the center of Greenland’s ice sheet, holds a warning about the threat that climate change poses for the future.
Eating sustainably is more feasible than most realize. These four tips can help reduce the footprint of your kitchen while also helping you live a more healthy life.
In Canada, groundwater is generally abundant and lakes are ubiquitous. But the exchanges between groundwater and lakes are complex and often invisible.
The Jasper fire reinforces the risks that climate change and related extreme weather events pose to Canada’s world heritage sites.

Mounting evidence shows rainfall is becoming increasingly variable, making the dry times drier and the wet much wetter. New findings confirm research into rainfall variability in Australia.
Determining the global average temperature on any given day is complex. It involves thousands of observations, high-tech equipment and sophisticated computer models.
The 2024 Summer Games are going all in on renewable energy, recycled materials and more to shrink their carbon footprint. They’re a test bed for how big events can do better for the environment.
Decarbonising shipping is more urgent than ever. But is a carbon tax the best way to achieve this? Wouldn’t it increase inequalities without sufficiently reducing greenhouse gas emissions?
A green new deal is practical, politically possible, and the best chance we have to achieve a just carbon-zero transition in Canada.
