In a massive effort to fight climate change, scientists embark on a $50 billion mission to safeguard one of Earth's most critical ice formations, Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica.
The polar region of Alaska in the Arctic and permafrost
Danielle Baron, Director of Education Innovation at Think Ocean CIC examines the Alaskan permafrost within the polar region and the implications of climate change in the area.
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.
