A major scientific report warns that forests, soils, and oceans are absorbing fewer carbon emissions than expected, with significant implications for achieving global climate goals and limiting temperature rise.

Newly released 2024 data place atmospheric greenhouse gases at all-time highs: CO₂ at 422.8 ppm, CH₄ at 1 930 ppb, and N₂O at 338 ppb. Scientists calculate that only ~235 Gt CO₂ can still be emitted for even odds of staying below 1.5 °C—an allowance the world could burn through before 2031 unless emissions fall sharply.

Scientists have found microplastics inside Antarctica’s only endemic insect, Belgica antarctica, marking the first evidence of plastic contamination at the bottom of the world and signaling a new era of global pollution.

A groundbreaking physics-informed machine learning algorithm developed by University of Hawaiʻi researchers promises to transform how we predict climate patterns and fluid dynamics by ensuring AI outputs remain physically plausible even with sparse data.

A groundbreaking study involving 53 researchers proposes transforming agricultural production methods to enhance the nutritional value of staple foods like wheat, potentially preventing millions of cases of chronic disease and saving billions in healthcare costs annually.
