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 (viac…)
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 (viac…)
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. (viac…)
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. (viac…)
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 (viac…)
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 (viac…)
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, (viac…)
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 (viac…)
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 (viac…)
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. (viac…)
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 (viac…)
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 (viac…)
Global warming is causing glaciers around the world to retreat rapidly, exposing vast areas of land that were previously covered in ice. These newly exposed lands are undergoing significant changes that (viac…)
CAPE (Convective Available Potential Energy) is available convective potential energy air. This is the amount of energy that an air parcel can gain as it rises in the atmosphere. A higher CAPE value means that the air parcel has more (viac…)
The 2015 Paris Agreement sets out basic science-based safeguards for global climate action with the aim of “holding the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels.” (viac…)
The global climate crisis is no longer just an ecological problem. It is also an economic, social and political crisis with devastating consequences that are not evenly distributed across society. Those most affected are often (viac…)
Climate change is no longer just a distant threat; its economic consequences are being felt here and now, and as temperatures rise, the bill is steadily increasing. Our society and economy are fundamentally dependent on the Earth system. (viac…)
The Paris Agreement set an ambitious goal of limiting global warming to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels, with the aim of pursuing 1.5°C. However, on current emissions trajectories, there is a real possibility that (viac…)
