A new study reveals how responsive the Greenland ice sheet is to climate change – more so than models predict. Methane has been detected at retreating glacier margins worldwide, but this is the first study to investigate the margin of an entire ice sheet. 

The Santa Marta conference on phasing out fossil fuels has just wrapped up, and by most accounts, it was a meaningful step forward. For the first time, 57 countries — representing more than half of global GDP — gathered explicitly to discuss ending the fossil fuel era. Colombia presented the world's first national roadmap for full phaseout. A new international science panel was launched. Political momentum is building. At least, that is the talk. The follow-up location is nothing short of an attack on the climate: Tuvalu.

Elon Musk has proposed the ultimate solution to prevent AI-related unemployment. It is almost extraterrestrially simple: provide a super basic income for everyone.

Unlawful delays by the European Commission have led to around 100,000 tonnes of chemicals contaminating food systems, drinking water, homes and elsewhere.

A team of researchers from PSE Healthy Energy and the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability has found high levels of benzene, a known carcinogen, in household gas supplies across Europe.

A new update of the Carbon Majors data makes one thing unmistakably clear: global fossil fuel emissions are increasingly concentrated in the hands of a very small group of producers, most of them state controlled.

The word climate change was not mentioned once during a week of high-level talks at the World Economic Forum in Davos. That is according to We Don't Have Time, a Swedish organisation focused on sustainability and climate change. It therefore organised its own presentation but was not allowed to do so within the event. So the presentation was given from a pile of snow in front of the door.

Europe is searching for ways to pressure the United States as President Donald Trump continues to float the idea of seizing Greenland from Denmark. One proposal gaining traction is striking in its symbolism: a European boycott of the FIFA World Cup 2026.

The richest 1% have exhausted their annual carbon budget – the amount of CO2 that can be emitted while staying within 1.5 degrees of warming - only ten days into the year, according to new analysis from Oxfam. The richest 0.1% already used up their carbon limit on the 3rd January.
