Hillary Clinton sharply criticized President Donald Trump’s climate policies, calling them “a political view of a dinosaur” and dangerously out of touch with reality. She warned that climate change affects everyone, not just corporations, framing it as a health crisis rather than merely an energy issue

Crossing Planetary Boundaries (PB)—a concept that defines nine potential ecological “tipping points”—could spell doom for ecosystems and humanity’s future on the planet
Of these PBs, humans have already crossed six of the nine thresholds
Now, scientists are arguing that there’s potentially a tenth boundary that’s gone unrecognized, which concerns worldwide aquatic deoxygenation in lakes, reservoirs, oceans, and other bodies of water

These are the experts who prevent oil spills from becoming catastrophes, who ensure dangerous goods don’t explode on our railways, who make sure Canadians can trust weather warnings, and who protect species from extinction. Cutting this scientific expertise puts public safety and the environment at risk

Those weaker winds can cause the jet stream to become wavier, more like a looping ribbon than a straight line, increasing the likelihood of prolonged cold snaps in places like the Southeast. That same pattern can also fuel powerful storms when Arctic air collides with warmer, moisture-rich air over the Atlantic, creating conditions to make bomb cyclones possible

Climate worry is associated with depressive and anxiety symptoms among Finns of all ages. However, these symptoms are less common among individuals whose climate-related hope is combined with various forms of action, such as volunteering, following a plant-based diet or avoiding air travel. Hope that society is capable of mitigating climate change is also associated with fewer depressive and anxiety symptoms

it targets plastic that recyclers usually reject because it is too degraded, mixed, or colored
Measured by weight, PET already contains more than 60 percent carbon. Its structure stays strong even after chemical changes. When converted into BAETA, the material gains a surface rich in sites that attract and hold carbon dioxide molecules. This makes it highly effective at trapping the gas from air or industrial exhaust

The long-term signal remains clear, they argue. But there’s no question that at the very least this new global realignment increases the complexity of managing energy and climate work.
When the dust settles on this moment of chaotic and rapid change, the international climate regime will look dramatically different with new alliances and international relationships. The U.S. won’t necessarily be alone, but it may find that standing apart comes at a cost

In 2024 we emitted more greenhouse gases into our atmosphere in a single year than any year before it. The increase from 2023 was small—0.8 percent—but still, global emissions continue to rise, despite science telling us we should have bent the global emissions' curve downward by 2020

Instead, individuals and families are drawing on intergenerational ties, social networks, cultural roots and identity to navigate risks and plan for the future. They may relocate temporarily or seasonally, instead of a permanent move. The researchers identified this alternative as "tethered resilience," in which climate impacts are secondary in the decision to migrate compared to economic, social, cultural, and demographic factors

The study, led by Professor Maria Byrne & Sydney Horizon Fellow Dr. Shawna Foo, found that bleaching triggered by extreme ocean temperatures was followed by an unprecedented outbreak of black band disease that killed massive Goniopora corals, also known as flowerpot or daisy coral, at One Tree Reef on the southern Great Barrier Reef
