The latest environment news from around the globe and what is being done to tackle the most serious issues affecting humans and animals. We look at topics such as biodiversity, animal welfare, conservation, and the impact of climate change on the natural world.
Volcanic CO2 seeps in Papua New Guinea have acted as a 'time machine,' allowing scientists to predict the fate of coral reefs. Research shows that by 2100, global reefs will be less complex, recover slowly, and be dominated by fleshy algae due to ocean acidification.
New research led by scientists at Northumbria University suggests that changes occurring in Antarctica could play a surprising role in supporting Earth’s natural ability...
UC Irvine and NASA researchers have identified stormlike circulation patterns beneath Antarctic ice shelves that are causing aggressive melting. These "submesoscale" features drive warm water intrusion, accelerating the melt of key glaciers like Thwaites and Pine Island.
New research from the University of St Andrews reveals that coastal oceans are acidifying faster than previously predicted, posing an existential threat to the global economy.
Researchers in China have developed an advanced biochar composite enhanced with nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) that dramatically improves the removal of harmful nitrate nitrogen from agricultural soils and water, promising sustainable farming and environmental protection.
A CU Boulder study reveals over 99% of the world's population faces threats to environmental human rights, including polluted air and unsafe water. Nearly half endure three or more environmental crises, demanding urgent global climate action. What does this mean?
An Ipsos–FSC survey finds global concern for climate change and forest protection dropping sharply in 2025, with war and conflict now the world’s top worry.
A new study from Linköping University using custom drones reveals that wastewater treatment plants may be emitting 2.5 times more greenhouse gases than previously thought.
Cigarette filters are the most littered item on earth. Here in the UK, they make up around two-thirds of all litter, despite only 12% of people smoking. What steps need to be taken to protect the planet?
