Human actions could be the key to countering the losses in ghost forests.
Some 55 million years ago, the carbon emissions absorbed by the oceans led to acidification and a mass die-off of marine animals.
Researchers revealed in a new study that the melting rate of Greenland's ice sheet could no longer be reversed.
Using the climate model of the last interglacial, a team of scientists predicted that Arctic sea ice could completely disappear by 2035.
Rising temperatures and open water were both listed as contributing factors to the collapse.
The new rules are expected to be signed Thursday and roll back regulations implemented under the Obama administration over greenhouse gas and global warming concerns.
Droughts are the biggest byproduct in the region as snowpacks relied on for water are melting and evaporating faster.
The death toll caused by the lethal lightning strikes in India is continuing to increase. According to local experts, the deadly lightning strikes are expected to get worse due to extreme weather conditions.
The plan developed by the House Select Committee on the Climate Crisis calls for a $1.5 trillion investment into making the U.S. a "green" country with zero-emissions.
New studies have revealed that programs aimed at encouraging people to plant more trees or entire forests can actually do more harm than good. Aside from reducing the biodiversity of native trees, these kinds of programs also tend to overestimate the amount of carbon trees can absorb.
More than 500 species of land animals found to be on the verge of extinction and are likely to be gone within 20 years, scientists say.
Mice are getting smaller in a rather mysterious way, a recent study reveals.
More powerful Pacific cyclones are speeding up the Kuroshio Current, which is ferrying heat northward affecting the global climate.
A comprehensive study conducted by researchers revealed a pattern of migration among animals. According to the study, different animal species are migrating toward Earth’s poles as global temperatures continue to rise.
Scientists found strong evidence that 'zombie fires' remnants from last year might have reignited.
A group of researchers uncovered a new mass extinction event that was caused by the sudden collapse of Earth’s ozone layer about 360 million years ago.
Researchers warned that large portions of Antarctica could be covered in “green snow” due to increasing global temperatures. According to the researchers, this could affect animal diversity in the region.
There have been at least 15 colorful bleaching events all across the world between 2010 and 2019.
An ancient form of the weather system El Niño is in danger of returning due to climate change and increasing global temperatures. According to researchers, this could cause severe weather patterns in regions within the Indian Ocean.
A new study on global warming warned that the increasing amount of greenhouse gas emissions would eventually create climate conditions that are not suitable for humans. According to the study, almost half of the global population would be subjected to extremely hot conditions by 2070.
A team of environmental scientists warned that global warming is causing hurricanes to move slower. Although this may seem like a good thing, the scientists noted that it could actually make hurricanes more destructive.
A new study revealed that releasing herds of large animals in the Arctic region could help fight the effects of climate change. According to the authors of the study, the presence of herding animals such as bison, horses and reindeer can prevent the melting of permafrost.
