Ice loss from melting glaciers around the world due to global heating could cause pressure to be released from volcanic magma chambers located deep underground. The process — already seen in Iceland — makes volcanic eruptions more frequent and powerful, according to new research conducted in the Chilean Andes. “As glaciers retreat due to climate […]
The world’s demand for oil, gas, renewables, coal, nuclear and hydropower hit a record high in 2024, with all growing year-on-year for the first time in nearly two decades, according to a new report by the London-based Energy Institute (EI). The 74th edition of the Statistical Review of World Energy found that together wind and […]
China is leading the world in new solar and wind installations and doing so at a record-shattering pace. In May 2025 alone, the country added 93 gigawatts of solar capacity, or nearly 100 solar panels per second, and 26 gigawatts of wind capacity, or about 5,300 wind turbines. This breaks down to about one turbine […]
Wild pollinator populations are declining all over the world, with increasingly severe climate change-fueled wildfires threatening their survival. These intense wildfires are also putting long-term ecosystem health and biodiversity at risk. Bee hotels are artificial nesting structures that have been specially designed to house cavity-nesting species. Often placed in backyards or gardens, they provide safe […]
According to a new assessment from the independent Climate Change Committee (CCC), the UK is making strong progress on reducing emissions, particularly with higher electric vehicle and heat pump sales. However, these trends will need to continue to ramp up for the UK to meet climate goals, and the government will need to work toward […]
Asia is warming faster than the rest of the world, according to a new report from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). The State of the Climate in Asia 2024 report, released Monday, shows the continent is heating up at twice the global average rate, leading to devastating impacts for ecosystems, societies and economies across the […]
New research has found that recycling food waste using methods such as composting, anaerobic digestion and “refeed” can lead to a dramatic reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions compared with disposing of it in landfills. Pressures like population growth, land degradation and urbanization are putting strain on the global agrifood system, which is a major […]
Ireland has become the sixth European country to end its use of coal with its scheduled shut-down of the Moneypoint coal-fired power plant six months earlier than originally planned. The 915 megawatt station will continue to operate in an oil-based backup capacity under emergency instruction until 2029, reported The Irish Examiner. “This is the end […]
Earth’s cloud cover has been shrinking rapidly, contributing to the world’s rising temperatures, according to a new NASA-led analysis of satellite observations. The researchers found that during each decade of the past 24 years, 1.5 to three percent of the planet’s “storm cloud zones” in the middle latitudes and tropics have been contracting. “This cloud […]
