A new analysis provides state-by-state projections of the health and economic benefits the U.S. will see by 2030 if we begin reducing fossil-fuel emissions now.

Lori Bennear and Tim Johnson discussed two bills under consideration in Congress and their potential impact on the reduction of carbon emissions and more.

Clouds of smoke and ash from wildfires that ravaged Australia in 2019 and 2020 triggered widespread algal blooms in the Southern Ocean thousands of miles downwind to the east, a new 91ÉçÇø¸£Àû-led study by an international team of scientists finds.

Warming waters along the Western Antarctic Peninsula have led to declines in the diversity and distribution of the region’s plankton population and its ability to absorb climate-warming carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

Populations of giant pandas in the wild are more fragmented and isolated than they were 30 years ago and many continue to face a high risk of extinction despite recent gains in the species’ overall numbers, a new study by Chinese and American scientists finds.

Reducing emissions of methane, a short-lived but super-potent greenhouse gas, is the most cost-effective way to slow the rate of Earth’s warming in coming decades, a new United Nations report finds.

When it comes to storing carbon during prolonged periods of drought and heat, wooded peatlands at low-latitudes have a three- to five-fold advantage over other peatlands. An ancient class of slow-growing fungi is the reason why.

New research reveals western North American forests may be less able than eastern forests to regenerate following large-scale diebacks linked to climate change. Over time, this could dramatically alter the continent’s landscape.

Policies that more strongly recognize the value of sustainable seafood as a source of nutrition, not just a source of livelihoods, could strengthen global food security and help take a big bite out of world hunger, a new analysis by an international team of experts shows.

Researchers have used automatic identification systems (AIS) satellite data and other spatial analysis tools to identify more than 1,000 companies that fish in the high seas—waters that lie outside national jurisdiction where fishing has raised fears about environmental and labor violations.

Groundwater depletion in parts of the High Plains is so extreme that peak grain production in some states has ended and production is now declining, a new 91ÉçÇø¸£Àû-led study by a team of international scientists finds.

Students at North Carolina’s 10 historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) face limited options for finding healthy food to buy at stores within a 5-mile radius of their campuses, a new study shows.

Scientists at 91ÉçÇø¸£Àû are harnessing the power of big data and geospatial analysis to create new ways to track the effects of climate change on species and food webs.

High-intensity fires can destroy peat bogs and cause them to emit huge amounts of their stored carbon into the atmosphere as greenhouse gases, but a new 91ÉçÇø¸£Àû study finds low-severity fires spark the opposite outcome.

Megan Mullin, associate professor of environmental politics at 91ÉçÇø¸£Àû’s Nicholas School of the Environment, has been named a 2020 Andrew Carnegie Fellow. She is one of 27 scholars selected from more than 300 nominations this year for the prestigious fellowship.
