The U.S. just got its climate report card for the year, and it's kinda OK.

Shift to gas saved more than 300m tons of planet-heating carbon dioxide as nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide levels dropped

A veteran of Canada's ailing oilpatch is hoping a new product drawn from deep under Prairie grain fields will provide a natural resource boom for Western Canada.

Research has found Arctic soil has warmed to the point where it releases more carbon in winter than northern plants can absorb during the summer.

New data shows how fossil fuel companies have driven climate crisis despite industry knowing dangers

Although the electrification of industry is a broadly positive step, public money spent extending the scope and life expectancy of natural gas production in B.C. is greenwashing at its worst, critics say.

We went into the depths of the ocean with a scientist seeking to understand how frozen gas deposits might respond in a rapidly warming world.

A leaked draft of a report on climate change and land use, which is now being debated in Geneva by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), states that it will be impossible to keep global temperatures at safe levels unless there is also a transformation in the way the world produces food and manages land.

The Global Energy Monitor says an international boom in liquefied natural gas exports is undermining global efforts to stop climate change and Canada is one of the industry's biggest players.

A researcher at the University of Calgary says she has developed a method of turning greenhouse gases into valuable carbon nanofibres. Mina Zarabian came up with the concept while completing her doctorate in chemical and petroleum engineering at the university's Schulich School of Engineering. Zarabian and her professor, Pedro Pereira Almao, worked together to come up with the technique.

Inhaling smoke from a wildfire can be equal to smoking a couple of packs of cigarettes a day depending on its thickness, says a researcher studying wildfires in Western Canada.

Will a price on carbon be a central issue in Alberta's 2019 election? With opinion polls that show Jason Kenney’s United Conservative Party has a wide lead over Premier Rachel Notley's NDP, and signs that oilpatch leaders are undermining the government's approach to pollution, the pressure is on for Notley's team to show their work on the economy, climate change and renewable energy issues.

The Trump administration's move is the latest effort to undo much of Barack Obama’s work to address climate change.

Statistics Canada said Friday that the mining, quarrying, and oil and gas extraction sector made up the largest share of Canada's carbon pollution, at 22.5 per cent in 2016.
