Stratospheric polar vortex changes still trigger brutal U.S. winter cold snaps and extreme weather despite a warming climate.

Roughly 252 million years ago, Earth experienced its deadliest known extinction. Known as the Permian–Triassic Mass ...

Earth passed a feared global warming milestone Friday, at least briefly. Average global temperatures were more than 2 degrees Celsius above a pre-industrial benchmark on Friday, preliminary data show ...

Since 2019, the UK has been committed to the target of net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Legally binding net zero ...

NASA said that if warming reaches 2 degrees Celsius, more than 70% of Earth's coastlines will see sea level rise greater than 0.66 feet, "resulting in increased coastal flooding, beach erosion ...

It's a natural warming event that adds to the global temperature, so it boosted it temporarily above that 1.5 Celsius mark. What we're really concerned about is when the trend line itself crosses ...

To keep global warming to no more than 1.5 degrees Celsius, current emissions need to be reduced by 45% by 2030 and reach net zero by 2050, according to the U.N.

In short, the global warming induced by increased greenhouse gases changes the major wind systems on Earth. This in turn reduces the area of highly reflective clouds, leading to additional warming.

We've been warned. Runaway global warming on our planet remains a distinct possibility in the decades and centuries ahead, scientists reported Monday in a new study, warning that a "hothouse Earth ...

If global warming never happened, we would likely have needed to subtract a leap second sooner. But with the influence of warming, Agnew estimates, we will need to do so by around 2028 or 2029 ...

Human-caused global warming—also called “anthropogenic” global warming—is the latest example of life altering Earth, but it is not the most dramatic. That title probably goes to the ...

Abdussamatov also blamed solar fluctuations for Earth’s current global warming trend. His initial comments were published online by National Geographic News. “Man-made greenhouse warming has ...
