We know by now that climate change can’t be ignored. Now and then, though, we stumble upon a new reason to embrace climate change mitigation techniques with a renewed sense of urgency. This might be ...

The world's oceans may be quietly amplifying climate change in ways scientists are only beginning to understand. In a new study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, University ...

Risky feedback loops that are accelerating global climate change may not be fully accounted for in current climate models, according to a recent study published in the scientific journal One Earth. A ...

Scientists say multiple critical Earth systems appear closer to destabilisation than previously believed. This is putting the planet in increased danger of following a “hothouse” path driven by ...

CNN — Dangerous climate feedback loops are increasing global warming and risk causing a permanent shift away from the Earth's current climate, according to a new study. Climate feedback loops are ...

When most Americans hear the term “climate change,” they probably think about CO2 in the atmosphere and rising temperatures; or maybe weather-related disasters; or melting Arctic sea ice.

With the world bracing for severe weather from a super El Niño, India discovers that alternative energy generation is facing a new set of challenges. Feedback Loop Threatens to Undermine Solar Power A ...

Climate change is increasingly affecting the ability of Earth’s natural carbon sinks to soak up excess carbon dioxide, and this means more of this greenhouse gas emitted by human activity is staying ...

Although government action has been insufficient when it comes to putting the global economy on a path to net-zero carbon, market mechanisms are emerging that promise to drive major progress. We call ...

Vicious cycles are accelerating climate change. One is happening at the north pole, where rising temperatures caused by record levels of fossil fuel combustion are melting more and more sea ice.

The world’s oceans may be quietly amplifying climate change in ways scientists are only beginning to understand. Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas, and for decades scientists have puzzled over a ...
