Stanford study links us emissions to $10 trillion global climate damage

A study from Stanford University finds that greenhouse gas emissions from the United States have caused more than 10 trillion dollars in global economic damage since 1990. The research, published in Nature, introduces a new method that connects emissions from countries, companies, and individuals to......

Australia and India test rice husk waste to produce low carbon steel

Researchers from Australia and India have completed what they describe as the world’s first commercial scale trial using agricultural waste to partially replace coal in steel production, offering a potential pathway to reduce emissions in one of the most carbon intensive industries. The trial,......

Toyota and Stellantis exit Tesla emissions pool under EU rules

Toyota and Stellantis have withdrawn from Tesla’s European carbon emissions pooling arrangement for 2026, according to newly filed documents with the European Union, removing two of the largest contributors to a coalition that analysts once estimated could generate more than €1 billion annually......

Europe invests €45 billion in wind power as policy uncertainty clouds growth

Europe channelled €45 billion into wind energy projects in 2025, installing 19.1 gigawatts of new capacity despite industry warnings that planned EU policy reforms could weaken investor confidence. According to WindEurope’s annual report, total installed capacity reached 304 gigawatts, up......

Antarctic emissions cuts seen as last chance to avoid irreversible damage

Scientists warn that Antarctica’s most accessible region is heading toward irreversible damage unless global greenhouse gas emissions fall sharply within the next few years. Drawing on new modeling of the Antarctic Peninsula, they say decisions made in this decade will lock in environmental changes......

Amazon rainforest turned carbon source during 2023 drought

The Amazon rainforest shifted from absorbing carbon to releasing it during the extreme drought of 2023, emitting millions of tonnes of carbon into the atmosphere instead of storing it, according to new research from the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry. The study, published in AGU Advances,......

Cornell study maps global crop emissions at 10 kilometer scale

Researchers have produced the most detailed global map to date of greenhouse gas emissions from croplands, finding that just four crops account for nearly three quarters of total agricultural emissions. Rice alone is responsible for 43 percent, according to the study. The research, published on February......

Climate change may halve global grazing land by 2100, study warns

Up to half of the world’s grasslands suitable for raising cattle, sheep and goats could become unviable by the end of the century as global temperatures rise, according to a major study that warns of severe consequences for pastoral communities and livestock worldwide. The findings point to growing......

IMO committee debates cleaner fuel rules for Arctic shipping

As melting Arctic sea ice opens new maritime routes, four countries are pressing the International Maritime Organization to require cleaner fuels for ships operating in polar waters, aiming to curb black carbon emissions that accelerate ice loss. Denmark, France, Germany and the Solomon Islands have......
