Management that takes evolution and adaptation into account can help rescue coral reefs from the effects of climate change, according to a new study.

Climate change has fundamentally changed the nature of the risk for homeowners and insurance companies alike. 

Every tree in a forest has a neighbour. In many forest neighbourhoods, the same species are often found living together, especially when the growing conditions are similar. Sometimes these neighbours are close and sometimes far apart, but collectively they form part of a community, with some species naturally being more dominant than others, especially in terms of biomass production. 

U.S. states and cities hand out tens of billions in taxpayer dollars every year to companies as economic incentives.

New research offers a hard link between reforestation of marginal, degraded, or abandoned agricultural land and significant benefits in water quality.

June was the hottest June ever (and other climate curiosities) as polls show that Americans increasingly acknowledge climate change.

"There is no denying it: The longer we wait to take bold action to curb emissions, the higher the costs will be for all of us."

Laura Faye Tenenbaum is the Senior Science Editor for the NASA’s Global Climate Change publication and a member of the Earth Science Communications Team at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. She develops

A new technology produces liquid hydrocarbon fuels exclusively from sunlight and air.

Coral reefs are home to so many species that they often are called “the rainforests of the seas.”

As the climate crisis is increasingly felt across the globe, protesters take to the streets and politicians scrabble to respond, a crucial question is beginning to emerge.

The next great agricultural revolution is here. Wine growers have a neat, if unusual, trick for making more flavorful wine?—?don’t water the vines

By end of the century, rising seas will flood more than 500 coastal cities, affecting 1.5 billion people worldwide. Some estimates predict surging sea level rise of two meters by 2100.

Biomining is the kind of technique promised by science fiction: a vast tank filled with microorganisms that leach metal from ore, old mobile phones and hard drives.

If we’re serious about feeding the world’s growing population healthy food, and not ruining the planet, we need to get used to a new style of eating.

Antarctica is further from civilisation than any other place on Earth. The Greenland ice sheet is closer to home but around one tenth the size of its southern sibling. 

The claim that humanity only has just over a decade left due to climate change is based on a misunderstanding.

In November 2018, the Woolsey Fire scorched nearly 100,000 acres of Los Angeles and Ventura counties, destroying forests, fields and more than 1,500 structures, and forcing the evacuation of nearly 300,000 people over 14 days.

Green growth has emerged as the dominant narrative for tackling contemporary environmental problems.

Over the past few days there has been a lot of talk about the Paris climate agreement, from which the United States is planning to withdraw. 

Removing salts and other impurities from water is really difficult. For thousands of years people, including Aristotle, tried to make fresh water from sea water.

Those least responsible for global warming will suffer the most. Poorer countries – those that have contributed far less to climate change – tend to be situated in warmer regions, where additional warming causes the most devastation.

Climate change is no longer a financial problem, just a political one. Mitigating climate change by decarbonizing our economy would add trillions of dollars in new investments
