Modern life relies on plastic.

Common “hard” coastal defenses, like concrete sea walls, might struggle to keep up with increasing climate risks. 

The boreal forest, covering much of Canada and Alaska, and the treeless shrublands to the north of the forest region, may be among the worst impacted by climate change over the next 500 years, according to a new study.

Age matters when determining how to protect life in the ocean; every population needs a strong cohort of adults to produce the next generation. 

New Curtin University research has shown the warming climate will turn Australia’s soil into a net emitter of carbon dioxide (CO2), unless action is taken.

A new study published today by the University of Sussex shows how researchers are using AI technology and social media to help identify global threats to wildlife. 

The warning time before a tornado touches down is measured in minutes. 

Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are not typically associated with water ways, like streams and rivers, but emerging research shows that water bodies play an important role in storing and releasing carbon dioxide.

One in 50 people living in two dozen coastal cities in the United States could experience significant flooding by 2050, according to Virginia Tech-led research.

The cost of removing large quantities of CO2 from the air will fall in the medium term, but not as much as previously hoped.
