Scientists Warn The Price of Food Is Expected to Increase Every Year

Climate change, and specifically rising temperatures, may cause food prices to increase by 3.2% per year, according to a new study by researchers in Germany.

Clear evidence of human-caused climate change

New oceanic research provides clear evidence of a human "fingerprint" on climate change and shows that specific signals from human activities have altered the seasonal cycle amplitude of sea surface temperatures (SST).

US scientists say one-in-three chance 2024 another year of record heat

This year has a one-in-three chance of being even hotter than 2023, which was already the world's hottest on record.

February breaks temperature records for the 9th month in a row

Globally, December, January and February came in at 0.78C above average. But the last three months are part of a much bigger climate change picture.

Plagues From Centuries Ago May Have Altered Earth's Atmosphere

Scientists have discovered in Antarctic ice a strange link between past levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide and centuries-long global pandemics, reminding us of just how easily humans - or the lack thereof - can shape planet Earth.

Significant glacial retreat in West Antarctica

A new study suggests that the significant glacial retreat of two glaciers on the west coast of Antarctica began in the 19404's, likely spurred by climate change.

Climate change has increased premature birth risk by 60%

Very high increase in premature births and severe health outcomes children face due to the impacts of extreme climate change.

Cars in Australia Are Emitting Way More CO2 Than Elsewhere

Australian passenger vehicles are emitting 50% more carbon dioxide (CO₂) than the average of the world's major markets. And the real-world situation is even worse than official figures show.

Huge Google Project to Unmask Worst Methane Polluters Now Ready

A satellite that measures methane leaks from oil and gas companies is set to start circulating the Earth 15 times a day next month.

Greenland ice loss is causing the island to literally rise up

In a crazy demonstration of just how little Greenland cares about following the laws of physics, the large island is rising out of the sea. The rise is fueled by Greenland’s ongoing ice loss, which continues to melt as global temperatures rise.

Ocean system that moves heat gets closer to collapse

An abrupt shutdown of Atlantic Ocean currents that could put large parts of Europe in a deep freeze is looking a bit more likely and closer than before.

Stronger hurricanes require new Category 6

Currently, the scale ranks hurricanes from 1 to 5. Now some researchers are now calling for a category 6 to be added because of the changing Earth.

Global temperatures breach 1.5C warming limit over 12-month period

Earth has endured 12 months of temperatures 1.5C hotter than the pre-industrial era for the first time on record. That is a grave foretaste of the Paris climate deal's crucial 1.5C warming threshold.

Trigger For Ancient Maya's Collapse Reads Like a Warning To Us

Researchers peering back through 800 years of history have concluded that Mayan civilizetion may well have been undone by drought.
