The International Maritime Organization has been asked to enact a carbon levy of $150 per ton of emissions from large freight and passenger ships. The IMO’s 175 member nations have until next year to vote.

Climate change is threatening Earth's biodiversity. Could frozen regions of the moon be the best place to "back up" lifeforms?

Researchers at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and NASA figure if they can just inject ice high up in the air, water vapour in the upper atmosphere would get a bit drier and that could counteract a small amount of the human-caused heating.

The new chief of the World Meteorological Organization said it looks to her that the rate of human-caused climate change is accelerating and that warming has triggered more Arctic cold outbreaks in North America and Europe, weighing in on two issues that divide climate scientists.

The popular narrative suggests that tackling methane emissions is the “low-hanging fruit” in the climate-solutions toolbox. The belief that turning off the taps on this “super-pollutant” could “buy us time” to address the climate crisis is widespread, shared by politicians, journalists, and even some scientists.

At a meeting of Pacific leaders in the Cook Islands, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese announced a plan that will initially allow up to 280 Tuvaluans to come to Australia each year. Tuvalu has a population of 11,000, and its low-lying atolls make it particularly vulnerable to global warming.

Pope Francis shamed and challenged world leaders to commit to binding targets to slow climate change before it’s too late, warning that God’s increasingly warming creation is fast reaching a “point of no return.”

Over the last 20 years, more than half of the planet's oceans have experienced colour change.

Around the world, communities are bracing for sea level rise: the Netherlands is stabilizing its dikes, Senegal is relocating neighbourhoods, Indonesia is moving its entire capital city. These projects are hefty, expensive and slow. But they may need to pick up the pace.

The 10-day mission involves sling-shotting into deep space for a figure-8 manoeuvre around the dark side of the moon. If it is successful, Artemis II will mark the first time any human has ventured so far from Earth.

Not only does its disappearance sound an unexpected warning bell for climate change and the carbon cycle, it also means there may be little time left to learn from the Arctic’s unique ecosystems — before they disappear.

Earth’s protective ozone layer is slowly but noticeably healing at a pace that would fully mend the hole over Antarctica in about 43 years, a new United Nations report says.

Despite the test launch of NASA's new moon rocket being postponed on Monday, August 29, 2022, morning, Innovation Minister François-Philippe Champagne said it was "still a good day for Canada."

To the naked eye, the Mako Compressor Station outside the dusty West Texas crossroads of Lenorah appears unremarkable, similar to tens of thousands of oil and gas operations scattered throughout the oil−rich Permian Basin.

The United States agency released four new images Tuesday during an event broadcast worldwide, one day after the White House released the first image from the telescope.
