Oil majors’ conduct can constitute reckless endangerment due to fossil fuels’ effect on global heating, advocates claim

Research challenges idea that sending liquefied natural gas around the world is cleaner alternative to burning coal

Forests around world being changed from carbon sinks into carbon sources, making it harder to slow global heating

As pressure grows on the oil and gas sector to reduce its emissions, one Calgary-based company is banking on the potential to convert waste gas from oil wells into valuable electricity for nearby communities.

The amount and proportion of the powerful heat-trapping gas methane that humans spew into the atmosphere is rising, helping to turbocharge climate change, a new study finds.

In recent years, the U.K. and U.S. governments and private sector have offered incentives and funds to help ramp up SAF production. But skeptics say the alternative fuels will hardly make a dent in the airline industry’s large carbon footprint.

Earth’s string of 13 straight months with a new average heat record came to an end this past July as the natural El Nino climate pattern ebbed, the European climate agency Copernicus announced on Wednesday.

In the clean car battle, the oil industry leans on friends—including Donald Trump—to keep gasoline transport alive, while carmakers steer toward an EV future.

Catastrophic Canadian warming-fueled wildfires last year pumped more heat-trapping carbon dioxide into the air than India did by burning fossil fuels, setting ablaze an area of forest larger than West Virginia, new research found.

New research into the behavior of microbes in icy soils shows twice as much planet-warming carbon could be at risk of escaping into the atmosphere.

For the first time, Alberta's oil and gas industry has exceeded the province's own regulatory limit for natural gas flaring.

If our present path doesn't change drastically, the science seems to suggest we are likely to experience a collapse of civilization — and we'll have nobody but ourselves to blame.

There is no way to make our climate crisis “go away.” So, what does it mean to speak of cures for an irreversible condition?

There are more than 2,600 landfills across the U.S., and collectively, they leak more than 280 million tons of carbon dioxide into the air each year — the equivalent of 74 coal-fired plants. So why are government regulations on the facilities so lax?

A U.S. federal grant has helped bolster Electrified Thermal Solutions, which is manufacturing a new heat-conducive brick that the company's founders claim will dramatically reduce the fossil fuel needs for heating in heavy industry.
