Research directly attributes 18-20% of Pine Island Glacier's retreat since 1940s to human-driven climate change, with impacts expected to persist for centuries.
A tornado in Jefferson County killed two people and injured five, adding to Illinois's record-breaking 147 tornadoes in 2026—nearly matching the state's previous annual record with half the year remaining.
Estudo da Nature Climate Change revela que o stress térmico extremo na Europa aumentou significativamente desde 1970, com sensação térmica até cinco graus mais intensa, noites mais quentes e período de calor prolongado.
A 1989 geomagnetic storm disabled Quebec's power grid in 90 seconds, affecting 6 million people. The incident underscores vulnerability of modern infrastructure to solar weather events.
Indonesia and Norway jointly inspected forest rehabilitation sites in South Kalimantan under the FOLU Net Sink 2030 programme, assessing tree survival rates across 82.86 hectares while integrating farmer livelihoods through mixed-crop cultivation.
Scientists warn the West Antarctic Ice Sheet faces an irreversible tipping point within 30-50 years, potentially triggering 4 meters of sea level rise that would reshape global coastlines and economies for centuries.
Australia's Ningaloo Reef is recovering after devastating bleaching and cyclone damage through a coral larval enhancement trial. Scientists are cautiously optimistic but warn climate change remains the core threat.
While Earth's astronomical winter solstice timing remains unchanged, climate change is dramatically altering winter weather patterns through polar vortex disruption, delayed freezes, and ecological confusion.
Severe Tropical Storm Francisco is nearing typhoon category with sustained winds of 110 kph, located 1,170 km east of southeastern Luzon and moving northwestward at 25 kph.
The African Development Bank and Brazil signed a cooperation agreement to expand collaboration in agriculture, healthcare, and renewable energy, reflecting a broader shift toward South-South development partnerships beyond traditional donor-recipient models.
The Asian Development Bank warns that climate change is creating a major mental health emergency across Asia-Pacific, with rising disasters driving PTSD, depression, and anxiety among 80+ million vulnerable people, while regional health systems remain critically underfunded.
Cientistas revelam que a atração diferencial dos mosquitos por pessoas resulta de uma complexa mistura química de odores corporais, CO2 respiratório e calor, não de mitos como tipo sanguíneo.
Solar electricity generation exceeded natural gas across Asia over the past year, driven by rapid adoption in China, India, and Pakistan alongside falling panel costs. The milestone reflects the region's accelerating energy transition away from fossil fuels.
A landmark study reveals thawing permafrost triggers CO2 removal through rock weathering, offsetting roughly 35% of river emissions and challenging the narrative of permafrost as purely a carbon source.
New research reveals thawing permafrost both emits and absorbs CO2 through rock weathering processes, complicating climate models and suggesting earlier-than-expected carbon source transitions.
Chinese actor Zhang Linghe faced political backlash after addressing Taiwan's Straits Forum, calling for closer cultural ties despite Taipei viewing the Beijing-backed event as advancing China's interests.
Scientists and artists are using underwater speakers playing healthy reef sounds to attract fish back to bleached coral ecosystems in Jamaica, replicating successful Great Barrier Reef restoration techniques.
Scientists map Earth's fungal networks for the first time, discovering 110 quadrillion km of arbuscular mycorrhizal hyphae that sequester ~4 billion tons of CO2 annually, with grasslands—not rainforests—holding the densest networks.
New research on Tibet's thawing permafrost reveals that while melting releases ancient carbon, exposed rock simultaneously captures CO2 through weathering, offsetting roughly a third of emissions in some regions.
Scientists warn the West Antarctic Ice Sheet could collapse with minimal additional warming, potentially raising sea levels by four metres—but models suggest a 30-50 year predictability window before irreversible collapse.
Electrification of transport, heating, and industry takes centre stage at UN climate preparatory talks in Bonn, with Turkey and Australia proposing a 35% electricity target by 2035, though negotiations stalled over climate science and fossil fuel commitments.
Tropical Storm Mekkhala is expected to enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility on June 20-21, potentially intensifying to typhoon strength and affecting Northern Luzon by mid-week with possible heavy rainfall.
Global demand for lithium to power electric vehicles and renewable energy storage is driving a mineral rush in Congo's resource-rich regions, exacerbating conflict, environmental destruction, and perpetuating colonial-era exploitation patterns.
New satellite systems are enabling scientists to monitor rivers globally for pollution, flooding, and ecosystem health, addressing long-standing challenges in tracking water quality across inaccessible waterways.
SunZia, the largest renewable energy project in US history, comes online after nearly two decades, delivering wind power from New Mexico to California for approximately 1 million homes.
