A U.N. report reveals migratory freshwater fish populations have declined by 81 percent over the past 50 years. The crisis highlights severe threats to freshwater ecosystems and biodiversity.
Climate
A new study indicates Earth is warming at record speeds as global emissions continue rising and carbon sinks deteriorate. The findings highlight accelerating climate change despite ongoing mitigation efforts.
Climate
China's fossil fuel emissions declined last year despite rising energy demand, driven by massive solar power expansion. The renewable energy buildout is beginning to reduce coal's dominance in the world's largest carbon-emitting nation.
Climate
Climate warming is increasing the frequency of extreme heat, wind, and drought conditions that fuel wildfires. Research now shows these dangerous fire conditions are increasingly occurring simultaneously across multiple regions worldwide.
Climate
The Brazilian Amazon is experiencing record-low deforestation rates this year according to government data. Officials attribute the decline to enhanced enforcement efforts against illegal forest clearing.
Climate
Climate warming tripled the likelihood of devastating wildfires in Patagonia that killed 23 people in Chile and damaged ancient forests in Argentina. Scientists have determined human-caused climate change significantly increased the risk of these destructive fire events.
Climate
Scientists warn that accelerating global warming increases the risk of triggering multiple climate tipping points that could destabilize Earth's climate system. New research suggests the threat of a "hothouse Earth" scenario is greater than previously understood.
Energy
China's solar capacity is projected to exceed its coal capacity for the first time this year, marking a historic shift in the country's energy portfolio. This milestone represents significant progress in renewable energy adoption by the world's largest emitter.
Energy
India's renewable energy generation surged 24% in 2025, driven by record solar and wind growth, causing fossil fuel generation to drop 3.3%. The renewable increase outpaced electricity demand growth due to milder weather and slower industrial activity.
Policy
Trump administration cuts environmental and community assistance programs in second term. Vulnerable communities with fewer resources face increased climate vulnerability from heat and storms.
Policy
Nearly 20% of Americans are exposed to high nitrate levels in public water systems, primarily from agricultural runoff. The Environmental Working Group's first comprehensive review identified over 6,100 affected water systems nationwide.
Climate
The Upper Colorado Basin in Utah and Colorado faces critically low snowpack levels heading into spring 2026. The region anticipates significant water availability concerns due to scarce mountain snow.
Wildlife
Rising global demand for açaí is driving plantation expansion in the Amazon, displacing traditional forest harvesters. Heat, wildfires, and industrial agriculture threaten both indigenous livelihoods and forest ecosystems.
EV
Taiwan is transitioning its massive scooter fleet from combustion engines to electric drivetrains, with Taipei aiming for full electrification by early 2026. The shift represents a significant mobility transformation across the island's cities.
Ocean
A new study reveals that sewage poses a severe threat to coral reefs worldwide, undermining the protection offered by marine protected areas. The research highlights how land-based pollution is one of the most widespread dangers to ocean ecosystems.
EV
A reporter at the 2026 Beijing Auto Show observed that China is dominating the global EV market with far more electric vehicle models than the entire US market offers. The show's 17 halls collectively demonstrate China's leading position in electric vehicle production and innovation.
Climate
A powerful tornado struck northern Texas on Saturday, killing at least two people and injuring six others. Extreme weather continues to devastate the US South and Midwest, with wildfires also raging in Georgia.
Climate
A peer-reviewed study finds that simultaneous exposure to toxic chemicals and climate change impacts creates an additive or synergistic effect that reduces fertility across human and animal species globally.
Climate
Fortescue is deploying zero-emission mining equipment globally, with analysts projecting annual fuel cost savings of $400 million. The company's shift toward electric haul trucks demonstrates economic viability of decarbonizing heavy industry operations.
Wildlife
Conservationists in North Sumatra built a canopy bridge over a road, and a young male Sumatran orangutan was filmed using it to cross for the first time. The successful crossing offers hope that critically endangered orangutans can adapt to fragmented habitats.
Climate
A Dutch study proposes damming the Bering Strait to stabilize the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) amid collapse concerns. The proposal raises questions about the feasibility and ecological consequences of such a massive geoengineering intervention.
Wildlife
California's $114 million wildlife bridge, the world's largest, nears completion despite criticism. The project enables safe passage for mountain lions, bobcats, and other animals across a 10-lane freeway carrying 400,000 vehicles daily.
Policy
ICE is planning a detention facility for children and families at England Airpark in Louisiana, a former military base with extremely high PFAS contamination in groundwater exceeding 41 million parts per trillion.
EV
Electric vehicle sales are booming globally, but lithium mining raises environmental and social concerns. An interview explores the extractive practices behind green energy transitions.
Energy
Ferries are transitioning to battery-powered systems as a sustainable alternative to fuel-based operations. This shift addresses both environmental concerns and rising operational costs for critical public transportation infrastructure.
