The ‘Doomsday Glacier’ already contributes four per cent of annual sea level rise, but can the consequences of climate change be barricaded off? A global group of scientists, engineers and policy experts has unveiled an ambitious plan to build a wall along the ‘Doomsday Glacier’ as flooding fears continue to grow. Located on the West […]
Abu Dhabi: As global carbon markets move from ambition to execution, a UAE-based climate finance and AI platform is positioning itself at the intersection of policy, capital and technology. Green Economy Partnership (GEP) has announced the successful mobilisation of international institutional finance for its first transaction under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement—a milestone that signals […]
Air frying high-fat foods such as bacon produces fewer volatile organic compounds and other airborne particles than deep-fat frying. Your air fryer may be secretly helping the planet, even if you have a penchant for fatty foods. The mini-appliances have boomed in popularity in recent years, quickly becoming a mainstay in kitchens across Europe. Air fryers often […]
One of the world’s most iconic migrations is at risk, as rising temperatures alter the quality of vital flower nectar. Every autumn, millions of monarch butterflies embark on a treacherous journey – flying more than 3,000 km from Canadian fields all the way to Mexico’s mountain forests for the winter. It’s a migration that attracts swathes of […]
Scientists say Greenland’s sinking sea levels will have a ripple effect on coastal communities, shipping routes, fishing and infrastructure. Rising temperatures are causing sea levels to rise around the world, putting millions at risk of severe flooding and coastal erosion. But in Greenland, the opposite is happening. Researchers at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, which is part […]
Scientists have analysed almost 30 years of data to discover how whales in the North Atlantic Ocean are learning to co-exist in a warming world. Rising temperatures and increased human activity in the North Atlantic Ocean have triggered “abrupt changes” in marine ecosystems, particularly for whales. A new study published in Frontiers in Marine Science has examined […]
Scientists are raising new concerns after a study found that microplastics are interfering with the ocean’s ability to absorb carbon dioxide, a process that plays a vital role in regulating Earth’s temperature. Microplastics are tiny plastic particles measuring less than five millimeters. Over time, they have spread across nearly every part of the planet. Researchers […]
Eco anxiety is very real, so we share this year’s most uplifting stories to prove there’s hope for our climate. With powerful nations rolling back climate protections and temperatures soaring ever closer to dangerous thresholds, it’s hard not to feel worried about the state of the planet. As green journalists, climate anxiety, climate doom and […]
The UK and EU both have ambitious targets for planting new trees to help meet climate targets. But how much progress has actually been made? Planting new trees now could be the key to offsetting heat-trapping gases from the atmosphere – and reducing flood risks from climate-fuelled extreme weather. It’s made the creation of woodland a […]
Gulf residents have been told the climate will not only become hotter but also more humid, with a newly released report revealing that last year was the third-hottest year yet worldwide. The Global Climate Highlights 2025 report said that the past three years have been the hottest on record – and that the world is close to breaching […]
