The latest environment news from around the globe and what is being done to tackle the most serious issues affecting humans and animals. We look at topics such as biodiversity, animal welfare, conservation, and the impact of climate change on the natural world.
A new satellite method will revolutionise CO2 tracking, using NO2 as a proxy. This breakthrough offers precise emission monitoring, crucial for climate action. It enables localised to national-level assessments, enhancing global efforts to combat climate change.
The study predicts that if greenhouse gas emissions continue at Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5, then 95% of ocean surface climates could disappear by 2100.
In an increasingly polluted world, the textile industry is responsible for 10% of all greenhouse gases - so why is the fast fashion industry growing, with no signs of slowing down?
New research, published in The Lancet, highlights that "substantial heat-related" deaths are increasing and global warming continues to impact the most vulnerable people.

With the release of the much-anticipated IPCC report, the decarbonisation race is on - but some countries will have an easier transition to renewable technology, while others will risk their populations and economies.
The IPCC report, which took eight years to compile, finds that human activity is definitely responsible for climate change - putting "billions of people in danger", according to UN chief António Guterres.
A new study, published in Nature Ecology & Evolution, found that overfishing was still an issue on the little-investigated borders of a Marine Protected Area (MPA).
According to Labour, the UK Government lost 75,000 environmental jobs over the last five years - including jobs in solar power, onshore wind, renewable electricity and bioenergy.
