Coal and gas exports expected to remain roughly at current level until at least 2035 with 4.5% of emissions linked to Australia, report finds
Melting of ice is slowing planet’s rotation and could disrupt internet traffic, financial transactions and GPS
Scientists warn of ‘scary’ feedback loop in which fires create more heating, which causes more fires worldwide
This year elections are taking place across the globe, covering almost half of the world’s population. It is also likely to be, yet again, the hottest year recorded as the climate crisis intensifies. The Guardian asked young climate activists around the world what they want from the elections and whether politics is working in the fight to halt global heating.
Winter downpours also made 20% wetter and will occur every three years without urgent carbon cuts, experts warn
Human-caused climate crisis brought soaring temperatures across Asia, from Gaza to Delhi to Manila
Climate scientists have told the Guardian they expect catastrophic levels of global heating. Here’s what that would mean for the planet
Exclusive: Survey of hundreds of experts reveals harrowing picture of future, but they warn climate fight must not be abandoned
Exclusive: Planet is headed for at least 2.5C of heating with disastrous results for humanity, poll of hundreds of scientists finds
Outgoing special rapporteur David Boyd says ‘there’s something wrong with our brains that we can’t understand how grave this is’
Cost of environmental damage will be six times higher than price of limiting global heating to 2C, study finds
If the anomaly does not stabilise by August, ‘the world will be in uncharted territory’, says climate expert
Dangers of wildfires, extreme weather and other factors outgrowing preparedness, European Environment Agency says
Rapid ocean warming and unusually hot winter days recorded as human-made global heating combines with El Niño
New paper claims unless demand for resources is reduced, many other innovations are just a sticking plaster Record heat, record emissions, record fossil fuel consumption. One month out from Cop28, the world is further than ever from reaching its collective climate goals. At the root of all these problems, according to recent research, is the human “behavioural crisis”, a term coined by an interdisciplinary team of scientists.
James Hansen says limit will be passed ‘for all practical purposes’ by May though other experts predict that will happen in 2030s
A focus on economic stability in the near-term makes the climate crisis worse in the long-term.

A new paper published in the journal Science has warned that melting areas in the Arctic have become 'frontlines for resource extraction', describing it as a 'modern day gold rush'.
Joint action is essential for planetary and human health Over 200 health journals call on the United Nations, political leaders, and health professionals to recognise that climate change and biodiversity loss are one indivisible crisis and must be tackled together to preserve health and avoid catastrophe. This overall environmental crisis is now so severe as to be a global health emergency. The world is currently responding to the climate crisis and the nature crisis as if they were separate challenges. This is a dangerous mistake. The 28th UN Conference of the Parties (COP) on climate change is about to be held in Dubai while the 16th COP on biodiversity is due to be held in Turkey in 2024. The research communities that provide the evidence for the two COPs are unfortunately largely separate, but they were brought together for a workshop in 2020 when they concluded: “Only by considering climate and biodiversity as parts of the same complex problem … can solutions be developed that avoid maladaptation and max
Catastrophic climate change and the collapse of human societies By Josep Peñuelas, Sandra Nogué National Science Review, Volume 10, Issue 6, June 2023 The scientific community has focused the agend…
The renowned US scientist’s new book examines 4bn years of climate history to conclude we are in a ‘fragile moment’ but there is still time to act
Dr. Michael E. Mann is Presidential Distinguished Professor in the Department of Earth and Environmental Science at the University of Pennsylvania, with a secondary appointment in the Annenberg School for Communication. He is director of the Penn Center for Science, Sustainability, and the Media (PCSSM). Dr. Mann received his undergraduate degrees in Physics and Applied Math from the University of California at Berkeley, an M.S. degree in Physics from Yale University, and a Ph.D. in Geology & Geophysics from Yale University. His research interests include the study of Earth's climate system and the science, impacts and policy implications of human-caused climate change.

First complete ‘scientific health check’ shows most global systems beyond stable range in which modern civilisation emerged
A coalition of British Columbians are organizing their municipalities to take oil and gas companies to court over the costs of the climate crisis
Extreme weather is ‘smacking us in the face’ with worse to come, but a ‘tiny window’ of hope remains, say leading climate scientists
As we mark 100 days until the COP28 UN climate summit, the urgency of addressing the climate crisis has never been more palpable. Global failures to mitigate emissions and adapt to the impacts continue to wreak havoc on the planet, and we’re seeing this in a range of ways. Unprecedented extreme weather events have occurred with frightening regularity in 2023. In March, over 500 people lost their lives when Cyclone Freddy struck Malawi. Last month, flooding in the Philippines caused by Typhoons Doksuri and Khanun displaced more than 300,000 people, and the recent wildfires that ravaged Hawaii – in part exacerbated by climate change – continue to make for distressing headlines. This list is likely to become even longer by the end of the year, when COP28 gets underway in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Heatwaves, wildfires and floods are just the ‘tip of the iceberg’, leading climate scientists say
Cooperation is not only in the best interests of all countries, but is absolutely necessary for the survival of the planet
Capitalism's endless growth paradigm can't be squared with sustainability. But no one – from politicians to the protest movement – is willing to admit the truth
Human-caused climate disruption and El Niño push temperature in mountains to 37C
The celebrated science broadcaster and environmental activist says we have to stop elevating the economy and politics over the state of our world
Op woensdag 26 juni werd Jim Skea verkozen tot nieuwe voorzitter van het IPCC, een organisatie van de Verenigde Naties die de risico’s van de klimaatcrisis evalueert. Wat is zijn visie? ‘Elke fractie van een graad maakt een verschil. Dat moeten we onthouden.’
A collapse would bring catastrophic climate impacts but scientists disagree over the new analysis
James Hansen, who testified to Congress on global heating in 1988, says world is approaching a ‘new climate frontier’
Plutonium spike in Canadian lake sediments marks dawn of new epoch in which humanity dominates planet
Research allays fears that rapid scaling back of production would hit people’s savings and pensions hard
Taxing world’s wealthiest people could help poorer countries shift economies to low-carbon and recover from climate damage
World Bank says subsidies costing as much as $23m a minute must be repurposed to fight climate crisis...
World is on track for 2.7C and ‘phenomenal’ human suffering, scientists warn. Up to 1 billion people could choose to migrate to cooler places, the scientists said, although those areas remaining within the climate niche would still experience more frequent heatwaves and droughts. However, urgent action to lower carbon emissions and keep global temperature rise to 1.5C would cut the number of people pushed outside the climate niche by 80%, to 400 million.
