Popular wisdom is often wrong. Consider, for example, how it views organic agriculture, which has grown to a $48 billion a year industry in the U.S. Organic products are sold
A team of researchers from Oxford University, UK, put forward a series of possible ideas and suggestions to reach the final 25% in terms of greenhouse emissions and achieve Net-Zero.
Even if the world stopped burning all fossil fuels today, that would not be enough to keep global temperatures below a 1.5° to 2°C increase above preindustrial levels. Fossil fuel
For the first time, scientists have quantified the contribution of so-called ozone-depleting substances, like chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), to extreme Arctic warming. The important, yet oft-forgotten, group of greenhouse gases were responsible
A new plan unveiled on 21 August by the Trump administration ― the so-called Clean and Affordable Energy plan ― is set to dismantle Barack Obama’s signature Clean Power Plan, which was
The detrimental effects of plastic on the environment are widely recognised, but a new study published on August 1 in PLoS ONE, a peer-reviewed scientific journal, now shows plastics may
The global tourism industry has a larger carbon footprint than scientists previously thought. According to new research, tourism contributes 8% of the world’s annual greenhouse gas emissions. Researchers warned that
The European Union has committed to cutting its greenhouse gas emissions by 90 percent by 2040, compared to 1990 levels. Under its 2025 law, up to 5 percentage points of
The planet is warming at a faster rate than at any point in recorded history, and the evidence is now overwhelming, according to the latest Indicators of Global Climate Change
