Ocean health is moving into a danger zone, with rampant human-caused carbon dioxide emissions having already pushed ocean acidification levels beyond safe limits in large swaths of the marine…

A warming climate is driving a rise in Lyme disease and the introduction of lesser-known tick-borne diseases, public health specialists say.  “Climate change in Canada is happening at a much more acce...

Economic assumptions about risks of the climate crisis are no longer relevant, says the communications expert Genevieve Guenther

Climate scientist Kate Marvel talks to The Washington Post about the complicated mix of emotions people might feel about the changing planet.

Das CO₂-Budget für 1,5 Grad schmilzt rapide. Ein Update des Weltklimarates zeigt: Wenn die Emissionen nicht sofort sinken, ist das Ziel in drei Jahren außer Reichweite.

Observational-based estimates of negative freshwater transports by the AMOC (Mov) at 34.5°S, suggest a bistable AMOC regime Many coupled models demonstrate positive Mov values, attributed to bias...

A “collapse” of key Atlantic ocean currents would cause winter temperatures to plunge across northern Europe, overriding the warming driven by human activity.

Ocean acidification has already crossed a crucial threshold for planetary health, scientists say in unexpected finding

A genome-wide study by the Long COVID Host Genetics Initiative identifies an association between the FOXP4 locus and long COVID, implicating altered lung function in its pathophysiology.

The claim that "backyard eggs" are ethical relies on denial of the centuries of violence that brought them here.

After record temperatures in 2024, climate scientists had expected this year to be cooler, but instead the planet seems to be heading for a second year above the 1.5°C climate goal

In decades of deep-sea exploration, humans have observed only 0.001% of the deep seafloor, leaving 66% of planet Earth unseen.

Paper in Nature Climate Change journal reveals major role wealthy emitters play in driving climate extremes

Observations and climate models suggest that the global sea surface temperature jump in 2023–2024 was not unexpected and would have been nearly impossible without anthropogenic warming.

Arctic sea ice extent for March set a record low in the 47-year satellite data record. Extent was below average everywhere except the East Greenland Sea.

A study published last week suggests that, if vaccine uptake continues to decline, measles will soon be endemic again in the US. It's just part of how RFK Jr. is making America sicker again.

The mission, jointly operated by the United States and India, will measure minute changes to land, ice, and ecosystems around the globe.

Better diagnostics, more focused treatment, and deeper understanding of individualized symptoms could all take major steps forward this year.

Abstract. We investigate the probabilities of triggering climate tipping points under five Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) and how they are altered by including the additional carbon emissions th...

Adults with respiratory syncytial virus-associated acute respiratory infection (RSV-ARI) are likely to be at a 2.7-fold higher risk of death within one year, warned a study HEALTH & WELLNESS

Global full-depth ocean heat content (OHC) gain since 1960 reached a record 452 ± 77 ZJ in 2024. OHC was 15 ± 9 ZJ higher than in 2023, primarily associated with warming in the Atlantic and Indian Oce...
