As the Earth’s climate continues to warm, researchers predict wild animals will be forced to relocate their habitats — likely to regions with large human populations — dramatically increasing the risk of a viral jump to humans that could lead to the next pandemic.

A new data cohort, funded by the NIHR Public Health Research programme, can for the first time link national green/blue space data with electronic health records for over a decade.

To assess how climate warming will change risks such as crop failures and wildfires, it’s necessary to look at how the risks are likely to interact.

Red tides, or harmful algal blooms, can cause low oxygen levels in coastal waters.

A new study led by Imperial College London finds that drug-resistant mould is spreading from the environment and infecting susceptible people’s lungs.

However, in small quantities it can be quite sustainable, shows a study by the University of Bonn

Non-native bullfrogs and sunfish species, introduced for consumer and sport purposes, are known to alter ecosystems and hinder native amphibians and fish in the Pacific Northwest highlands.

Experimental crop absorbed carbon dioxide equivalent to a vehicle burning 35,000 litres of gasoline, unlike more common annual versions, study shows.
