Le réchauffement a dépassé 1,5°C durant douze mois, et a peut-être déjà passé définitivement ce seuil de sécurité. Il a accéléré et a progressé dernièrement à 0,31°C par décennie, augmentant le ris…

Continued global heating could set irreversible course by triggering climate tipping points, but most people unaware

The latest Lancet Countdown report warns that health impacts of climate change are worsening, with millions dying needlessly each year due to fossil fuel dependence, growing greenhouse gas emissions, and failure to adequately adapt. As some countries and companies rollback on climate commitments, local and grassroots leadership is building momentum for a healthier future.​ The report represents the work of 128 experts from 71 institutions, monitoring progress across 57 indicators – from heat-related deaths to bank lending to fossil fuels – providing the most comprehensive assessment yet of the links between climate change and health.

Bronwen Maddox says Trump’s rejection of international law leaves UK and Europe facing huge dilemma

The growth rate of greenhouse gas (GHG) climate forcing increased rapidly in the last 15 years to about 0.5 W/m2 per decade, as shown by the “colorful chart” for GHG climate forcing that we have been publishing for 25 years (Fig. 1).[1] The chart is not in IPCC reports, perhaps because it reveals inconvenient facts. Although growth of GHG climate forcing declined rapidly after the 1987 Montreal Protocol, other opportunities to decrease climate forcing were missed. If policymakers do not appreciate the significance of present data on changing climate forcings, we scientists must share the blame.

We are hurtling toward climate chaos. The planet's vital signs are flashing red. The consequences of human-driven alterations of the climate are no longer future threats but are here now. This unfolding emergency stems from failed foresight, political inaction, unsustainable economic systems, and misinformation. Almost every corner of the biosphere is reeling from intensifying heat, storms, floods, droughts, or fires. The window to prevent the worst outcomes is rapidly closing. In early 2025, the World Meteorological Organization reported that 2024 was the hottest year on record (WMO 2025a). This was likely hotter than the peak of the last interglacial, roughly 125,000 years ago (Gulev et al. 2021, Kaufman and McKay 2022). Rising levels of greenhouse gases remain the driving force behind this escalation. These recent developments emphasize the extreme insufficiency of global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mark the beginning of a grim new chapter for life on Earth.

Définitivement placé sous le signe de la religion, le second mandat du président américain est marqué par le rôle croissant de l’agence, mise en place pour renforcer la place dominante du christianisme dans le pays et au-delà.

Le gouvernement américain va investir au moins 80 milliards de dollars dans la construction de nouveaux réacteurs nucléaires conventionnels en vertu d'un partenariat annoncé mardi avec le groupe américain Westinghouse Electric Company. C'est une nouvelle étape majeure du rebond du nucléaire aux Etats-Unis, en partie initié par les géants du secteur technologique aux besoins croissants en électricité pour alimenter leurs centres de données (data centers), notamment pour l'intelligence artificielle (IA).
