More than 580 million children under age 10 globally experience at least 20 additional heat-stress days annually due to climate change, with south Asia, southeast Asia, and west Africa most affected.

Research demonstrates that human-caused global warming is intensifying El Niño weather patterns, with recent “super” events showing 37% higher variability than preindustrial times.

France has temporarily relaxed strict production rules for iconic cheeses including Comté and Beaufort due to severe summer drought conditions limiting feed availability for dairy herds.

Michigan is allocating $7.5 million to research geologic hydrogen, a clean energy source potentially buried beneath the state that could help decarbonize industries like trucking, steel, and cement manufacturing.

China’s carbon dioxide emissions fell 1% following the Iran conflict, driven by reduced oil consumption and increased electric vehicle use, suggesting the world’s largest emitter may be approaching a decarbonization turning point.

Scientists are studying an Arctic polynya in Baffin Bay that remains ice-free year-round, where warming paradoxically threatens to increase ice coverage and disrupt a critical ecosystem supporting whales, seals, and seabirds.

Scientists are using fiber optic cables to detect “icequakes” in Swiss glaciers, revealing how meltwater causes structural damage that threatens ice stability worldwide and may help predict sea level rise.

The Trump administration is unraveling air pollution regulations designed to reduce toxic emissions from petrochemical plants, granting exemptions to facilities that had celebrated the Biden-era HON rule.

A retiree’s experience switching off his heat pump due to high electricity costs raises questions about whether the UK’s focus on renewable electricity generation is the right priority for achieving net zero emissions.

UK homes are increasingly struggling with extreme heat, sparking debate over whether to invest in air conditioning and heat-resistant housing design alongside efforts to reduce carbon emissions.

The UK is developing long-duration energy storage systems to support renewable energy integration, with Ofgem backing 16 projects expected to save over £24bn by 2050.

New analysis suggests climate damage from UK oil and gas fields would cost £119bn-£336bn, far exceeding estimated economic benefits of £28.7bn, reigniting debate over development approval.
