Canadian forest fires are losing their climate cooling power, says study
Canadian forest fires are losing their climate cooling power, says study Gaby Clark Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Diminishing periods of snow cover in northern forests, shortened by climate change, are poised to disrupt a delicate balance in some of the planet's most climate-sensitive regions—according to new research from McMaster University, VU Amsterdam, and the Woodwell Climate Research Center. Historically, carbon emissions from northern forest fires were counteracted...
Warming unlocks ancient carbon in Tibetan permafrost, triggering climate tipping point
Warming unlocks ancient carbon in Tibetan permafrost, triggering climate tipping point Tejasri Gururaj Author Stephanie Baum Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor A new study in Nature Communications finds a critical climate tipping point in Tibetan permafrost ecosystems. Warming of 2–4 degrees Celsius triggers a self-reinforcing cycle of carbon release that could significantly accelerate climate change, according to the work. Permafrost covers roughly 15% of the Northern...
UN warns of 'deepening crisis' in oceans, urges action
UN warns of 'deepening crisis' in oceans, urges action Andrew Zinin Lead Editor Oceans are in a "deepening crisis" that demands urgent global action, a major U.N. report warned Monday, with seas warming and rising faster, ice cover shrinking, and marine ecosystems under mounting strain. The culmination of five years of work by 600 international scientists, the 1,352-page tome details the growing toll of climate change, pollution and overfishing in our oceans, which cover more than 70% of the...
India gained 2.1 million hectares of dry woodland in a decade, major study finds
India gained 2.1 million hectares of dry woodland in a decade, major study finds Gaby Clark Scientific Editor Andrew Zinin Lead Editor India gained around 2.1 million hectares of tropical dry woodland between 2014 and 2024—an area larger than Wales—according to a major new study involving researchers from The University of Manchester's Global Development Institute. The research was published in the journal Environmental Research Letters. The research found that large-scale tree planting,...
America’s Go-To Climate Scientist
The success of the climatologist Daniel Swain rests on a simple foundation: His specialty has long been how global climate change messes with local weather. Many climatologists focus on subjects that seem arcane: mean global temperatures registered in Celsius, radiative forcing, the reflectivity of clouds. Swain, in contrast, talks in plain English—constantly, really, in interviews with CBS, NBC, the Weather Channel, and The Washington Post, as well as on his own blog and YouTube channel,...
Haus Da Lat: a new luxury living and resort destination in Vietnam
Morning mist drifts across the pine-covered hills of Da Lat, a city long known for its temperate climate and unhurried pace. Once a quiet retreat, the highland destination is drawing renewed attention as Vietnam’s economic ascent reshapes its appeal to global investors. Within this shift, a new class of development is emerging.

The White House has proposed massive changes to the scientific process in the U.S. which, if passed, could make science funding dependent on the whims of political appointees. The Office of Management and Budget...
