The warming — which the scientists said likely is irreversible through 2100 — is poised to continue, especially if humans fail to make significant and rapid cuts to greenhouse gas emissions.

Cold, wintry weather might make global warming seem like less of a threat or something to joke about. Here's what experts say about that.

New research spotlights the challenge of growing food on a warming planet. Two recent studies — one historical and the other ...

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

Even best-case levels of global warming would mean 'catastrophic' sea level rise, study says “There’s very little that we’re observing that gives us hope here,” one study author said.

Earth is getting warmer, but at a statistically steady rate - not at an accelerated rate that could be statistically defined as a surge, report scientists at Lancaster University and UC Santa Cruz.

In the 2015 Paris Agreement, most countries agreed to try hard to limit global warming to below 1.5 degrees Celsius. Delay and inaction mean that goal is becoming harder to achieve by the day.

After 12 consecutive months with temperatures 1.5 C above the 1850-1900 average, Earth’s temperature has now fallen slightly.

This past week, the EPA said it is reconsidering the scientific finding that greenhouse gases are a danger to public health. This comes as research shows average global temperatures in 2024 likely ...

Worryingly, this trend of clearer low-level skies may be a result of global warming itself, meaning that the Earth may be entering a feedback cycle that could accelerate warming further.

Global warming verified by multiple metrics over decades. Short-term snow cover data is inadequate to assess whether change has occurred.

Rising sea levels, melting glaciers, heatwaves at sea -- 2023 set a number of alarming new records. The global mean temperature also rose to nearly 1.5 degrees above the preindustrial level ...
