Agriculture is the dominant cause for the increasing N₂O concentrations. Emissions must be reduced if we hope to stabilise Earth’s climate.
This is up to 35 times more than the estimated weight of plastic pollution on the ocean’s surface.
This stroke of serendipity shows how much there is still to be learned about the natural history of Australia. Surely more surprises are out there waiting for us.
Digitising healthcare and exporting more sustainable protein alternatives are just some ideas that could help Australia’s economy return to form.
After the Black Summer bushfires, heavy rains extinguished many fires but turned high quality water in our rivers to sludge. This is how we better prepare for next time.
The report by the World Meteorological Organisation shows that with large and rapid emissions cuts, we can still avoid the most severe climate change. But worryingly, we also have time to make it far worse.
Reducing our intake of discretionary foods such as cakes, biscuits, pizza and hot chips is the best way we can make our diets more sustainable.
Machine logic can be too precise to seem fully human. Chatbots that learn logic from Aristotle instead might behave more like people.
Ahead of National Science Week, Chief Scientist Alan Finkel reflects on the growing value of citizen science, emphasising the need for more collaboration as we deal with an evolving climate.
Despite this year’s coronavirus lockdowns, more CO2 has accumulated in the atmosphere than during the same period in 2017 or 2018.
With tarantula-like orchids and giant bananas, New Guinea is officially the most floristically diverse island in the world.
We need our scientists now more than ever to help us grow the high-value industries that will secure our future jobs and prosperity.
Try a few star jumps every hour, it’ll make a massive difference to your warmth.
It’s no wonder some Indigenous Australians are concerned about receiving different treatment in hospital.
From a Hugh Jackman-esque spider to honouring traditional Indigenous words, these species have memorable names.
Nuestros últimos estudios sugieren que el metano, un gas de efecto invernadero más potente que el dióxido de carbono, se está acumulando en la atmósfera debido a la actividad humana.
The race is on to develop a vaccine for the COVID-19 coronavirus. Australian researchers are leading several major clinical trials that might help bring an end to the deadly disease.
In Australia, methane emissions from fossil fuels are rising due to expansion of the natural gas industry, whereas agriculture emissions are falling.
Supercomputers in Canberra and Perth power the analysis and modelling that decision-makers rely on in national crises.
