Geologic reservoirs that trapped petroleum for millions of years are now being repurposed to store the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide.

Microscopic particles of plastic have been found across the Earth, from the clouds over Mount Fuji to the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea. 

Plastic pollution is more than just trash on the beach.

The research shows that for every degree of global or regional warming, winter rainfall increases by a compounding 7%, increasing the risk of flooding.

Plastic pollution has become a major global environmental concern as modern societies rely increasingly on plastic products.

Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas with strong heat-trapping capabilities.

Chemicals brought in to help protect our ozone layer have had the unintended consequences of spreading vast quantities of a potentially toxic ‘forever chemical’ around the globe, a new study shows.

Earth's ecosystems are endangered by climate change and many are becoming less resilient as they come under increasing pressure.

In a warming Arctic, noise from growing shipping traffic is interfering with the ability of narwhals to hunt and communicate.

Significant reliance on land-based methods of carbon dioxide removal can protect biodiversity by avoiding climate impacts - but it could also compete with biodiversity protection unless there is better site selection, according to a new study.
