A new study using artificial intelligence (AI) to forecast global warming timelines has found that Earth will exceed the target of limiting warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels within about 10 to 15 years, according to a press release from Stanford University. Emissions goals designed to keep warming below the more ambitious threshold […]
A recent study of New York City’s vegetation found that a remarkable amount of the city’s vehicle carbon emissions — plus that of some neighboring areas — are absorbed by grasses and trees.

Yet another study provides evidence that humanity is not all equally responsible for the climate crisis. The UK-based research, published in Ecological Economics, finds that the top 10 percent of income earners in the country use almost three times as much energy as the bottom 30 percent. What’s more, the top 10 percent’s energy footprint […]
The EU has reached a provisional agreement to institute the world’s first green tariff system. According to the deal reached Tuesday in Brussels following a negotiations all-nighter between the European Parliament and EU member states, the bloc will impose tariffs on the imports of carbon-intensive products like steel and fertilizers, as Reuters reported. “The agreement […]
JetBlue is taking back its 2020 promise to offset greenhouse gas pollution from its domestic U.S. flights and will instead focus on cutting its per-seat pollution in half by using “sustainable aviation fuels” generated from waste or plants. The aviation sector is responsible for a massive amount of climate pollution, made even worse by the […]
The world’s eyes are currently on Qatar as the host of the ongoing FIFA World Cup. But, while the tournament’s organizers have been criticized for misleading claims about the event’s carbon neutrality, it turns out that Qatar could have an even more devastating impact on the climate crisis.
