A hotter planet puts 145 mn Indian children under greater stress every year: Study

India sees 61 percent of children facing extra heat stress annually. Global research shows climate change doubles dangerous heat exposure for young children. This humid heat poses severe health risks, impeding body cooling mechanisms. Future warming scenarios project even higher numbers of affected children in India. Developing nations and tropical…

Nepal’s deadly glacier collapse exposes climate risks across the Himalayas

A massive glacier collapse that triggered deadly flooding on the Nepal-Tibet border has exposed the growing dangers facing the rapidly warming Himalayas, where scientists say retreating ice and thawing ground are making mountain landscapes increasingly unstable.

For centuries, Arctic cold has kept plant life small but Alaska trees are growing taller, getting greener due to climate change and this may offer hope, survival strategy for fragile eco-system against global warming

These plants are competing for sun, nutrients, water and especially pollination in this harsh environment of limited but intense sunlight.

Disaster in Nepal once again intensifies debate regarding risks posed by climate change

Himalayan glaciers are receding due to rising temperatures, leaving unstable debris behind. Shifting precipitation patterns cause rainfall in areas previously receiving snow. Intense rainfall saturates loose debris, triggering landslides and debris flows. Blocked water flow by snow or debris creates temporary dams which then break. These combined factors intensify disaster…

What we know about the environmental causes behind the Nepal landslide

Deadly floods along the Nepal-Tibet border on Wednesday highlighted the near-impossible task of predicting sudden landslides and mudflows in the Himalayas. Experts say the terrain can turn a blocked river into a devastating torrent within minutes, while climate change may be increasing the risks of such disasters.

The world is burning less. Why does it feel like it’s burning more?

Global burned areas are significantly below average, contradicting climate change narratives. Satellite data shows a quiet fire season worldwide, with continents experiencing less burning. Fires in France and Spain are severe but do not represent a planetary inferno. Improved land management and firefighting have reduced global fire occurrences over time.…

In 1989, a 185-page California climate report warned that a warming would slash the state's spring runoff by a full third. 30 years later, its warnings proved right, with mountain snow cover falling by half as droughts, floods and fires worsened

California received climate change warnings thirty years ago. These projections accurately predicted droughts, floods, and heat waves. The state's ambitious efforts to address global warming began then. Many regret the slow societal response to these warnings. Observed impacts now confirm past scientific assessments.

Why are some mountain trees moving downhill as the planet warms? Scientists may have an answer

Mountain trees are migrating uphill and downhill due to climate change. Their water transport efficiency and drought resistance determine their directional movement. Species with efficient water systems generally move to cooler, higher elevations. Drought-resistant species tend to expand into warmer, lower elevation areas. These varied responses challenge simple predictions about…
