Many native plants in the U.S. cannot possibly move themselves fast enough to avoid climate-change driven extinction.

New research into lithium mining in the “Lithium Triangle” of Chile, Argentina and Bolivia — source of more than half of the world’s lithium resources — shows that the commonly accepted models used to estimate how much water is available for lithium extraction and what the environmental effects may be are off by more than an order of magnitude.

Marine life in the deep ocean can take decades to recover from the impact of deep-sea mining for rare metals, new research shows.

In a new paper, researchers at North Carolina State University show proof of concept for a system that, in a single cycle, actively removes microplastics from water.

A new study analyzed nearly four decades of deep ocean observations to reveal significant cooling and freshening of deep water in the Subtropical North Atlantic.

A new study published in the journal Frontiers in Marine Science, has uncovered evidence of far-reaching ecosystem consequences following the disappearance of Great white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias) from False Bay, South Africa.

Renewables accounted for 92 percent of new power capacity worldwide last year, a new report shows.

Every year, millions of tires end up in landfills, creating an environmental crisis with far-reaching consequences. 

Plastic is everywhere. And many products we use in everyday life, such as cutting boards, clothes and cleaning sponges, can expose people to tiny, micrometer-wide plastic particles called microplastics. 

Researchers from Chiba University and Nagoya University, Japan, have developed a highly accurate land cover map for Siberia, providing insights into climate change and predictions.
