We need products we can repair, reuse and recycle – not ones deliberately built to become obsolete, says design professor Jonathan Chapman

More than a billion sea creatures across the Pacific north-west perished in this year’s heatwave. And it’s just a taste of what’s to come

As the southern European nation battles hundreds of wildfires, Prime Minister Mitsotakis has warned that the country is facing its worst heat wave for 30 years. Extreme weather in 1987 claimed more than 1,500 lives.

Events in the genome of Welwitschia have given it the ability to survive in an unforgiving desert for thousands of years.

The sunset over Phoenix tinted by smoke from nearby wildfires on Tuesday, June 15, 2021, when temperatures climbed to 118 degrees. Much of the West is suffering from unusually scorching temperatures this week, as a large and persistent heat dome stretches from Southern California to Montana.

Scientists want to refreeze the Arctic as it is melting faster than they had anticipated. A report from the Climate Crisis Advisory Group (CCAG) is warning that the Arctic’s warming in the last 30 years could trigger more disastrous changes to our weather systems.

Toyota seems to be doing everything possible to become known as one of the most despicable corporations on the face of the Earth. Last month it was revealed that it was the largest corporate contributor to members of Congress who voted against certifying the result of the last election.

The O2 turbine weighs 680 metric tons and has a length of 74 meters.

Cutting greenhouse gas emissions quickly would save tens of millions of lives worldwide, a new study finds. It's the latest indication that climate change is deadly to humans, and that the benefits of transitioning to a cleaner economy could be profound.

The climate crisis is no longer a looming threat – people are now living with the consequences of centuries of greenhouse gas emissions. But there is still everything to fight for. How the world chooses to respond in the coming years will have massive repercussions for generations yet to be born.

When the Environmental Protection Agency released its plan earlier this month for addressing marine litter, it named five Asian nations—China, Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam—as responsible for more than half of the plastic waste flowing into the oceans every year.

Federal wildlife authorities have agreed to further study a petition in support of additional protections for Southeast Alaska’s wolf population. The decision is likely to rekindle a decades-old debate between conservationists and hunters.

A combination of intense heat and drought conditions is causing wildfires in Western Canada to generate their own weather systems, experts say.

Dogs tend to ignore suggestions from people who are lying, hinting that – unlike human infants and some other primates – they might recognise when a person is being deceptive

The global economy's business-as-usual approach to climate change has seen Earth's "vital signs" deteriorate to record levels, an influential group of scientists said Wednesday, warning that several climate tipping points were now imminent.

As temperatures rise, a new book delves into the environmental toll of America’s favorite way to cool off

Scientists from Cambridge University and NTU Singapore have found that slow-motion collisions of tectonic plates drag more carbon into Earth's interior than previously thought. They found that the carbon drawn into Earth's interior at subduction zones—where tectonic plates collide and dive into Earth's interior—tends to stay locked away at depth, rather than resurfacing in the form of volcanic emissions.

From record rainfall inundating cities around the world to wildfires scorching an unprecedented area to deadly heat waves that have come with unrelenting regularity this summer, extreme weather linked to climate change is unfolding with frightening clarity.

Yale researchers observing the brains of closed-eyed baby mice found waves that help explain why mammals can navigate their environment so soon after birth.

A new study lays to rest the tired argument that electric vehicles aren’t much cleaner than internal combustion vehicles. Over the life cycle of an EV — from digging up the materials needed to build it to eventually laying the car to rest — it will release fewer greenhouse gas emissions than a gas-powered car, the research found. That holds true globally, whether an EV plugs into a grid in Europe with a larger share of renewables, or a grid in India that still relies heavily on coal.
