Secrets beneath the soil: New model reveals microbial marvels in carbon storage
A new model using microbial genetic information highlights how soil microbes efficiently store carbon from plant roots, which is crucial for climate change mitigation and informing sustainable agricultural strategies worldwide.
Global challenges and unilateral trade measures
Dr Wibke Meyer from CropLife International, argues that unilateral agricultural trade measures are a misguided approach to addressing the global challenges of climate change, biodiversity, and food security.
Removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
The agricultural sector plays a decisive role in tackling climate change. GERICS explores what actors of the agricultural sector think of removing carbon dioxide and what support they need from science.
Human progress may delay global environmental solutions
Insights into the central features of human evolution may divert efforts to address environmental problems, including climate change.
Cuba’s first motus tower for tracking migrant land birds
Keith Hobson, Professor and Research Scientist at Environment and Climate Change Canada and Western University, discusses updates in the expansion of tracking migratory birds in Central and South America, and the Caribbean.
Solar panels vs Forests: Which delivers faster results?
A study suggests that photovoltaic fields are more efficient than afforestation in migrating global climate change.
Rethinking urban design’s for 21st-century weather
Climate change increases the frequency and intensity of weather extremes throughout the United States, such as heat waves and heavy rainfall.
Understanding the impact of drought on forests: Bridging science and practice
Due to the very long rotation times of trees 100 years old or more, the forest sector is being particularly affected by the changes brought about by climate change, especially by the impact of drought.
Isotopic applications assit in forensic tracking of illegally traded wildlife parts
Keith A. Hobson, a Research Scientist and Professor at Environment and Climate Change Canada, discusses the use of stable isotopes to trace the origins of animal parts in order to mitigate the illegal wildlife trade.
Exposing the deceptive art of greenwashing
Holding businesses accountable for their carbon footprint is key when addressing climate change, however, greenwashing allows companies to mislead consumers and is becoming a major problem.
New negative emission technology in direct ocean carbon capture
Despite the ocean undertaking some of the largest climate change impacts, it also plays a part of the solution to reversing it. Researchers look to membrane contactors in direct ocean carbon capture.
Australia’s energy policy priorities
Open Access Government investigates some of the energy policy priorities of Australia’s Minister for Climate Change and Energy, The Hon Chris Bowen MP, especially clean energy, energy efficiency and electric vehicles.
Transforming transport for the NHS: Bringing sustainable mobility to our healthcare heroes
Our planet is suffering from the effects of climate change. To tackle this, Connected Kerb aims to charge up the NHS with a reliable network of public charging infrastructure.
Nature restoration across Southeast Asia could cost $200 billion annually
Nature restoration projects are needed across Southeast Asia to help the region better adapt and tackle climate change, but estimated annual costs could be exceptionally, and unreachably large.
Hottest days are warming twice as fast in North-West Europe
University of Oxford research reveals that the hottest days in North-West Europe are warming twice as fast as average summer days due to climate change.
The hidden potential of tree diversity for enriching soil fertility
Increased tree diversity can result in a higher buildup of carbon and nitrogen in forest soils, which helps to sustain soil fertility and mitigate global climate change.
Are flash droughts a new norm?
‘Flash droughts’ are becoming increasingly frequent owing to human-inflicted climate change, and this trend is only going to grow.
Weathering the storm: Exploring flooding in agriculture
Christine Sprunger, the Assistant Professor of Soil Health at Michigan State University, aims to understand how the flooding in agriculture has increased with climate change and how farmers can better adapt.
Tracking animal migration with stable isotopes
Keith A. Hobson from Western University and Environment and Climate Change Canada, walks us through tracking animal migration with stable isotopes, starting with some background information.
An exploration of the Portuguese Council for Health and Environment
Here, Dr. Mónica Rodrigues explores the Portuguese Council for Health and Environment (CPSA) efforts to prevent climate change, promote sustainability, enact a Global Health System Strategy and so much more.
