The threat of extinction is something that has bothered humans from time immemorial and scientists are continuously conducting research in order to understand the current situation of the planet.

Threat of global extinction much higher than previously thought, study says

Wildfires are becoming much more common than they were a decade ago. Even the Arctic which was previously immune to wildfires now facing an increased risk of it. So, why is it happening and what is the world doing to mitigate and prevent them, watch this report!

WION Climate Tracker| Climate change worsens wildfires: Global warming may be drying the planet

Longyearbyen is a small coal-mining town on Spitsbergen Island, in Norway's Svalbard archipelago. This Arctic town is known for its views of Northern Lights. But it's also the place where global warming is at its fastest pace.

This arctic community is at the forefront of global warming

Climate Change and global warming are daunting realities we all face. Even if you are someone who doesn't really believe in these, the reality is hard to deny. Draughts, floods, wildfires, and heatwaves are all proof it is happening. So what can we do to delay the inevitable?

Is being child-free how you save the planet?

What does 'greenwashing' mean and why is it a problem? Why do big brands like Coca Cola engage in it? Greenwashing serves as a smokescreen which hides the continued exploitation of the planet and allows those responsible to get away with it. "The number of products labelled as sustainable or green has increased exponentially in recent years, with many household brands guilty of greenwashing. Yet, as businesses claim progress towards sustainability, emissions continue to rise, extraction increases, and overproduction spirals," says Changing Markets Foundation (CMF)

What is greenwashing, the practice major companies are accused of engaging in?

India experienced not just more heat this summer, but more air pollution too. A new analysis reveals that India's national capital New Delhi saw a rise in air pollution during summers in 2022 compared to 2021 with the city's particulate matter levels significantly breaching the permissible limits, a new analysis said on Wednesday.

A new study shows that methane is four times more sensitive to global warming than previously thought, reported The Guardian. The study justified the rapid growth in methane in recent years and revealed that methane-related global heating could potentially escalate in the future decades unchecked.

Global warming is slowly but steadily impacting every part of our lives from extreme heat waves to unseasonal storms and now it's forcing Nepal to move the base camp of mount Everest.

Nepal to move Everest base camp as Khumbu glacier rapidly thinning out

Global warming and increasing human activity have forced Nepal to move the Everest base camp, which has been rapidly melting and thinning. The camp— which is situated atop Khumbu glacier camp at an altitude of 5,364m—attracted 1,500 people from all over the world last year during the spring trekking season.

Nepal to move Everest base camp as increased human activity, global warming melting glaciers

Nepal has decided to move the Everest base camp due to global warming and human activity. The move will be completed by 2024. Khumbu glacier is rapidly thinning out.

Heatwave will envelop France between Thursday (June 16) and Saturday (June 18), with temperatures in central parts of the country reaching 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit).

France braces for heatwave in coming days, as temperatures cross 40 degrees Celcius

A study on ‘Exceptional warming over the Barents area’ studying surface air temperature (SAT) data from Global reanalyses points towards maximum warming over the northern Barents area.

Hydrogen is the world's hope against climate change. More and more countries are investing billions of dollars in projects dedicated to Hydrogen energy. Hydrogen can trigger global warming if not handled correctly

Scientists say Hydrogen if leaked into air can accelerate Global Warming

As climate change continues to impact life forms around the world, conservationists are concerned about the dwindling numbers of the North Sea Puffins.

Puffins numbers low in Farne Islands, decline attributed to Global warming

Climate change is real. The excessive use of fossil fuels, deforestation and other issues have led to the rise in the temperature of the Earth. It is in turn leading to melting of glaciers, rise in sea level, etc.

Climate change: How can coastal areas survive rise in sea level?

Climate change is real. Our Earth is dying a slow death. Whether one likes it or not, we are responsible for it in one way or the other. Unless we make right amends, nothing is going to change.

Climate change: Are we doing our bit for environment?  

Climate change has rendered the blistering heatwave that has gripped South Asia in recent days 30 times more likely, according to a report. The rapid-response report, which quantified the influence of global warming on extreme weather events, said that before the advent of human-caused climate change such an event would occur after roughly 3000 years.

Global warming made killer heatwaves in India, Pakistan 30 times more likely: Report

Worsening outdoor air pollution and toxic lead poisoning have kept global deaths from environmental contamination at an estimated 9 million per year since 2015 – countering modest progress made in tackling pollution elsewhere, a team of scientists reported Tuesday.

Pollution killing 9 million people a year, Africa hardest hit, says study
