Their victory in the European Court of Human Rights is a huge win for the climate.
Heat is surging in the world’s oceans. Climate change and El Niño explain part of it – but not all.
Kelp forests around the world, and in Canada, are under threat. New research sheds further light on the health, and resilience, of these crucial ecosystems.
Mainstream economics has been complicit in the climate change crisis as it falsely treats climate change as a mere side-effect of production or a minor aberration.
The climate policies I research aren’t working – as I found out the hard way.
Use-inspired research goes beyond translational research to build lasting connections between researchers and communities.
South Australia stands out as having the weakest tree-protection laws, but cities around the nation are losing tree cover at a time when climate change makes them more important than ever.
With the recent scrapping of Nova Scotia’s Coastal Protection Act, the future of Canada’s iconic Bay of Fundy now rests in the hands of private interests, with potentially significant consequences.
