Climate change science examines how alterations in Earth’s energy balance—primarily through rising concentrations of greenhouse gases—drive shifts in atmospheric, oceanic, cryospheric and land-surface ...

Adaptation is too small, slow and scattered to address the enormity of the climate crisis. But behavioral science could help spur action on a larger scale. Farmers are on the frontlines of the climate ...

As the planet warms, many expected ecosystems to change faster and faster. Instead, a massive global study shows that species turnover has slowed by about one-third since the 1970s. Nature’s constant ...

Scientists from across academic disciplines are extremely concerned about climate change. Many of them have already changed their own lifestyles or engaged in advocacy and protest, with even more ...

The recent report released by Energy Secretary Chris Wright on the climate impacts of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the U.S. has caused quite a stir in the climate science arena. “Outrage,” ...

Most Americans now accept the basic physics of climate change—that manmade greenhouse-gas emissions are raising global temperatures. Yet the public discussion of climate change is still remarkably ...

These maps reveal how climate change influences daily local weather, ocean temperatures, and tropical cyclones. Climate Shift Index: Tropical Cyclone Find out how climate change has shaped past and ...

Climate change is profoundly reshaping ecosystems and threatening food and water security. Globally, agrifood systems are under strain, while freshwater resources are shrinking. The natural ...
