National data released Tuesday by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration supports what scientists have been shouting for years: The ongoing climate crisis has created a wet, hot, American climate.

Humanity can still limit global warming to 1.5°C this century. But political action will determine whether it actually does. Conflating the two questions amounts to dangerous, misplaced punditry.

Most of Earth's glaciers are melting faster than ever because of human-caused climate change, dumping about 328 billion tons of melted ice into the world's oceans each year, according to a new study.

While much of the world took a pause in 2020, climate change did not. And as countries figure out how to reach the goals set in the Paris Agreement, it’s clear that dramatic action—and outside-the-box solutions—are needed to cut emissions. Swiss company Climeworks is working to provide some of those to help reverse climate change with its direct-air-capture technology.

The Earth’s climate has always been a work in progress. In the 4.5 billion years the planet has been spinning around the sun, ice ages have come and gone, interrupted by epochs of intense heat. The highest mountain range in Texas was once an underwater reef. Camels wandered in evergreen forests in the Arctic.

Scientists behind the study, said that melting glaciers have contributed to the shift observed in the 1990s.

The UK business secretary, Kwasi Kwarteng, is considering a “full vegan diet” to help tackle climate change, saying people will need to make lifestyle changes if the government is to meet its new emissions target of a 78% reduction on 1990 levels by 2035.

The U.S. government can tap nearly $38 billion from existing federal funds to revitalize communities hard hit by the closure of coal mines or coal-fired power plants, a White House-appointed group wrote in a report for President Joe Biden released on Friday.

By 2030, all of the world's solar resource will be economic in comparison to local fossil fuel generation, according to a new report from thinktank Carbon Tracker. Already around 60% of global solar generation is economic - with 15% of wind resource being economic - a figure expected to grow to more than 50% by 2030.

MEETINGS OF GLOBAL leaders always combine, in varying proportions, pomp, substance, glitches and questionable set design. The first day of President Joe Biden’s virtual climate summit on April 22nd was no different. There were lofty declarations and flurries of press releases. Presidents spoke from desks festooned by flags. Mr Biden—along with John Kerry and Antony Blinken, America’s climate envoy and secretary of state, respectively—sat at a desk curved around an oddly scraggly patch of grass.

A new study finds that overconsumption, overpopulation and uncertainty about the future are among the top concerns of those who say climate change is affecting their reproductive decision-making.

“The number of people that would be affected by this is about 40% of the world population.”

The consequences of not taking further action on climate change would be “beyond catastrophic” for the planet, US climate envoy John Kerry has warned. The former secretary of state said the need to tackle the issue is “extremely urgent” for the whole world.

Google Earth users can now see the striking effect of climate change over the past four decades with the new tool Timelapse.

These 'Ewe-Tube' stars might be a bit sheepish, but they sure make good TV. Some sheep are making themselves right at home on a farm in Mercer County ... a solar farm that is. Kentucky Utilities has partnered with Shaker Village of Pleasant Hill to put the animals to work at the E.W. Brown Generating Station just outside of Harrodsburg, and now you can check it out for yourself online.

China must shut down nearly 600 of its coal-fired power plants in the next 10 years, replacing them with renewable electricity generation, to meet its goal of net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2060, a report has said.

The company’s stock market arrival establishes Bitcoin and other digital currencies in the traditional financial landscape. It also elevates a technology with astonishing environmental costs.

The United States hopes to restore its shattered credibility when it hosts a climate change summit next week by pledging to cut its greenhouse emissions by at least half and securing agreements from allies for faster reductions, according to two sources familiar with the matter.

A new study reveals how the companies you buy meat from block climate action.

They are diligently stoking thousands of bonfires on the ground close to their crops, but the French winemakers are fighting a losing battle. An above-average warm spell at the end of March has been followed by days of extreme frost, destroying the vines with losses amounting to 90 percent above average. The image of the struggle may well be the most depressingly beautiful illustration of the complexities and unpredictability of global climate warming. It is also an agricultural disaster from Bordeaux to Champagne.
