Current plastic waste management methods are costly and harmful to the environment — and common biodegradable alternatives, like soggy paper straws, fall short as a replacement.

Many climate predictions focus on physical models like wind speed, temperatures and geochemistry, but significantly overlook how human behaviour responds to environmental change.

The devastating fires in Los Angeles have numerous secondary effects as scientists are finding out now off the coast of Southern California.

Research reveals that aerosols from Canadian wildfires of summer 2023 contributed to the formation of ice clouds over the Arctic.

Climate change is melting away glaciers around the world, but in the Andes Mountains, a wild relative of the llama is helping local ecosystems adapt to these changes by dropping big piles of dung.

The world’s botanic gardens must pull together to protect global plant biodiversity in the face of the extinction crisis, amid restrictions on wild-collecting, say researchers.

An interdisciplinary team of researchers from NTU Singapore, and Delft University of Technology (TU Delft), The Netherlands, has projected that if the rate of global CO2 emissions continues to increase and reaches a high emission scenario, sea levels would as a result very likely rise between 0.5 and 1.9 metres by 2100. 

An international team of scientists has discovered a way to store and release volatile hydrogen using lignin-based jet fuel that could open new pathways for sustainable energy production.

Study underscores the urgent need to protect global tropical wetlands from human impact.

Modelling study estimates 2.3 million additional temperature-related deaths unless urgent action is taken to address changing climate.
