For decades, we have relied on a basic assumption in our climate models: large forest ecosystems, like those in Africa, are our faithful allies. They act as (viac…)

Most of us view climate change and plastic pollution as two separate, albeit huge, environmental crises. On the one hand, we have a warming planet, and on the other, oceans and land choking on plastic waste. (viac…)

While the scientific community has produced increasingly reliable knowledge about the physical consequences of global warming on time scales of tens of decades and longer, (viac…)

In discussions about climate change, we often hear about „tipping points“ – critical thresholds beyond which sudden and irreversible change in the Earth’s climate system can occur. These points are the source of (viac…)

When we think of a warming Arctic, most of us imagine melting sea ice on the surface and rising ocean levels. These changes are dramatic and visible. But deep beneath the ice sheet, in the freezing darkness thousands of meters below, (viac…)

Climate news can often be overwhelming. The constant stream of headlines about record temperatures, extreme weather events and international disagreements can make it feel like progress is slow. (viac…)

With so much to look forward to on a trip to the ocean, it's understandable that few of us really think about the impact we're having on the world's oceans while on vacation. And while these concerns shouldn't get in the way of a well-deserved break, it would be irresponsible to ignore them entirely.

When we talk about solutions to the climate crisis, solar panels, wind turbines and electric cars usually come to mind. We focus on the energy transition and reducing emissions from industry. While we rightly focus on decarbonization (viac…)

They are in the rain that falls on our fields, in the packaging of our food, and in the water that flows from our taps. „Forever chemicals,“ or PFAS, are not a distant environmental problem—they are a silent part of our lives. (viac…)

When we think of fossil fuels, most of us think of smokestacks, melting glaciers and global warming. These are undoubtedly key aspects of the crisis we face. But a new report from Amnesty International reveals that the true cost of our addiction (viac…)

For many of us, the label „organic“ is synonymous with idyll: a field full of flowers, buzzing bees, and soil so healthy you could eat from it. It’s a simple and comforting story about the good and bad of agriculture. A message (viac…)

When we think of the fight against climate change, most of us imagine grand international summits and complex agreements between national governments. But what if we told you that one of the largest and most influential climate movements in Europe is taking place outside the glare of the sun? (viac…)

The enormous, seemingly insurmountable costs of transitioning to a climate-neutral world represent one of the greatest challenges of our time. According to the financial plans of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change campaign (viac…)

We hear everywhere about „green finance“, „sustainable investment“ and the ambitious „European Green Deal“. These terms have become part of our everyday conversation, but they often remain just vague slogans. But what is really behind them? (viac…)

More than 75% of Europeans live in cities, which are becoming the main battlegrounds in the fight against the climate crisis. It is in these urban centres that we will decide whether we win or lose this fight. It is therefore natural (viac…)

Food systems represent a major contribution to environmental pressures, such as greenhouse gas emissions and biodiversity loss. As a result, large-scale dietary changes are needed to avoid (viac…)

Most of us feel some form of anxiety about climate change. We see it as a gradual, linear process – the world is warming by tenths of a degree, glaciers are slowly melting, and sea levels are rising. This picture of gradual change is (viac…)

Service Copernicus The Climate Change Monitoring Service (C3S), implemented by ECMWF on behalf of the European Commission, has published its latest Monthly Climate Bulletin, confirming the ongoing series of exceptionally high global (viac…)

Almost a decade after the adoption of the Paris Agreement, the climate movement has focused on keeping the increase in average global surface temperature below the threshold 1.5 °CDespite activism and multilateral negotiations on emissions reductions (viac…)

Special report from 2025, prepared by William J. Ripple, Christopher Wolf and colleagues, entitled The 2025 state of the climate report: a planet on the brink, warns that the planet is heading towards climate chaos. The consequences (viac…)
