Superpollutants are extremely potent climate pollutants that have an excessive ability to trap heat. While climate attention has long focused on carbon dioxide (CO₂), these potent pollutants (more…)
The European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) is fast approaching its December 2025 deadline, originally set to come into force in December 2024. This regulation poses a significant challenge (more…)
Biodiversity is the foundation of functioning ecosystems and ensures clean water, healthy soil and food. However, it is rapidly declining worldwide – wild animal populations have fallen by an estimated 60–70% since 1970. Such (more…)
The global climate system is experiencing a significant change as the La Niña phenomenon, known for cooling the planet and affecting weather around the world, has ended after three months, according to the US agency NOAA. (more…)
According to the latest Climate Bulletin of the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S), implemented by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) under the Copernicus programme, (more…)
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) plays a key role in regulating global and especially European climate, as it efficiently transports heat from the Southern Hemisphere to the Northern Hemisphere. New simulations using the model (more…)
New research suggests a potential "collapse" of key Atlantic ocean currents could cause dramatic drop in winter temperatures across northern Europe, which would also overcome human-caused warming (more…)
Global warming continues to be an unprecedented challenge, with the latest data from the European Union's climate change monitoring service, Copernicus, revealing a continuing trend of rising temperatures. May 2025 (more…)
Reforestation, defined as the restoration of forest cover through tree planting, direct seeding, or natural regrowth in places where forests naturally exist but are currently absent, is an important strategy for (more…)
Europe is the fastest warming continent on the planet, which requires an urgent intensification of adaptation measures to mitigate the impacts of climate change. However, these impacts are affecting different regions unevenly. (more…)
Food waste represents one of the most critical challenges of today – not only food and financial, but also environmental. New data shows that combating this phenomenon is essential in the fight against climate crisis. (more…)
SCF (Social Climate Fund) is part of the new ETS 2 directive that introduces CO₂ emissions pricing for heating and transport. Its purpose is to mitigate the social and economic impacts of climate change for (more…)
The Antarctic Ice Sheet plays a key role in our climate system by influencing current and future global mean sea level through the accumulation, deposition and discharge of ice. In the last four (more…)
Climate-related extreme events pose a significant burden on humanity, having already caused hundreds of thousands of deaths and trillions of dollars in damage in the first two decades of this century. These events, such as floods, droughts, (more…)
Scientists from NOAA and the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California, San Diego recently announced that The seasonal peak in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration exceeded 430 parts per million (ppm) for the first time (more…)
The impact of climate change is most acute in the Earth's polar regions. The Arctic and Antarctica are warming rapidly, with dramatic consequences not only for local environments but also for the wider world. The Arctic region is warming (more…)
Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas that contributes to climate warming. It is considered the second most important greenhouse gas (GHG) after carbon dioxide (CO2) and has been responsible for approximately 20 % of direct greenhouse gas emissions since 1750. (more…)
Rivers and streams play a significant role in the global carbon cycle, serving as an important pathway through which carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) are released from water surfaces into the atmosphere. While it was previously thought (more…)
Every year on June 5th, we commemorate World Environment Day – an international day when the planet speaks out about the need to protect nature. But this year, it speaks out more forcefully than ever before, because climate change is (more…)
