Global Sea Ice Cover At Record Low In February Amid Persistent Hot Streak
In February, temperatures spiked up to 11 degrees Celsius above average near the North Pole as the world continued its persistent heat streak, said Europe's climate monitor.

Scientists Warn of Alarming Rise in Marine Heat Waves and Its Impact on Oceans
Reports indicate a sharp rise in marine heat waves, with 2023–2024 experiencing a 240% increase compared to past years. Scientists warn of devastating effects on marine life, including mass die-offs, coral reef degradation, and increased storm intensity. Coastal communities are at risk as extreme weather events linked to warming oceans become mor...

Earth's Orbit and Tilt Linked to Ice Age Cycles, Next One Delayed by Climate Change
Scientists have discovered a strong link between Earth's tilt and past ice ages, predicting the next glacial period would have started in 11,000 years. However, rising greenhouse gas emissions are disrupting these natural cycles. The research, based on ocean sediment data, supports the theory that Earth's obliquity governs ice expansion while prece...

Concerns Rise Over Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation Stability and Climate Impact
A new study suggests the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) has remained stable over the past six decades, but experts remain divided. While some scientists argue the system has not weakened, others believe potential future disruptions to AMOC are inevitable, with major climate implications, including extreme weather events and cold...

2024 Marks Earth's Hottest Year Ever, Surpassing Critical 1.5 degree Celsius Warming Limit
In 2024, Earth recorded its hottest year ever, surpassing the critical 1.5 degree Celsius warming threshold for the first time in history. This significant temperature increase has been linked to intensified weather events, rising sea levels, and widespread environmental damage. The year saw an alarming rise in climate-related disasters, with the U...

One-Third of Earth's Species Could Face Extinction by 2100 Due to Climate Change
A new study has warned that up to a third of Earth's species could face extinction by 2100 due to rising global temperatures. The research, published in Science, highlights how climate change is accelerating extinction risks, especially for amphibians and species in isolated ecosystems. With emissions continuing at current rates, the risk of extinc...

Greenhouse Gas is Rising Rapidly in Atmosphere Due to Human Activities, Highlights New Report
Methane levels, which are 80 times more potent than CO2 in the short term, are rising at an unprecedented rate. Human activities, such as agriculture and fossil fuel extraction, contribute significantly to this surge. Despite global efforts, including the 2021 Global Methane Pledge, methane emissions continue to climb. This trend threatens climate ...

The Day After Tomorrow Was Just A Warm-Up. Real Danger Looms, Warn Scientists
A new study has revealed that predicting the timing of catastrophic climate events, such as the collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), is extremely difficult.

2023 Broke Every Single Climate Indicator: UN Weather Agency
Greenhouse gas levels, surface temperatures, ocean heat and acidification, and sea level rise all reached record highs in 2023, according to a new report by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) released on Tuesday.

Ocean Temperatures Hit Record High In February, Say EU Scientists
Ocean temperatures hit a record high in February, with the average global sea surface temperature at 21.06 degrees Celsius (69.91 degrees Fahrenheit), the EU's Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) said on Thursday.

Climate Change Is Intensifying the Water Cycle, Bringing More Powerful Storms and Flooding – Here’s What the Science Shows
Climate change is impacting the water cycle around the globe and the consequences are visible in the form of storms and flooding. One of the major reasons for the intense water cycle is the rise in temperature, which can be caused due to higher greenhouse gas emissions.

Human Activity Creates Systemic Warming Pool in the Pacific Ocean; Causing Loss of Aquatic Wildlife, Ecology
Scientists have identified that the systemic warming in a pool of water present in the northeast Pacific Ocean is due to human activities and not from natural climatic variations. The pool of water has witnessed a surface water temperature increase of up to 3 degrees Celsius since 1996. The three million square kilometres body has been seeing a ris...

Rising Sea Levels Threaten To Flood Lakshadweep Islands: Study
Sea levels will rise around the Lakshadweep Islands between 0.4 mm per year to 0.9 mm per year and will affect airport and residential areas, according to a study projecting different greenhouse gas scenarios.

1.5 Degrees Celsius Warming Cap Could "Halve" Sea Level Rise From Melting Ice
Limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius could halve how much sea levels rise due to melting ice sheets this century, according to a major new study modelling how Earth's frozen spaces will respond to ever-increasing greenhouse gas emissions.
