The world’s seagrass meadows capture and store enormous amounts of carbon, but they must be protected if the incredible work they do for our climate is to continue. A new global study predicts that protecting seagrass meadows that are “at-risk” could avert climate damages of more than $200 billion by stopping the release of over […]

In a new study, researchers determined that 2%, or 104 amphibian species out of 5,203 species studied, are already experiencing overheating events in their natural habitats. The researchers considered different microhabitats of amphibians, including terrestrial, arboreal and aquatic and compared heat tolerance limits of the animals to the actual daily temperature patterns from the past […]
A new study has found that roughly 8,500 tons of antibiotics — almost a third of what is consumed by humans each year — ends up in the world’s rivers, even after much have passed through wastewater systems. The researchers warned that river systems globally have been contaminated with levels of antibiotic pollution high enough […]
A new study has found that eating higher amounts of dietary fiber can reduce the levels of two of the most common per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) “forever chemicals.” The researchers discovered that fiber was most effective at reducing perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), each of which can remain in the human body […]
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) — which has been experiencing massive staff layoffs and funding cuts by the Trump administration — has announced it will stop tracking the cost of climate crisis-fueled weather disasters, including heat waves, floods and wildfires.
