This year, efforts to address the climate crisis will center on the Brazilian city of Belém in the Amazon region. In November 2025, the city will host the most important United Nations climate conference (COP30).
In the Arctic, where the temperatures are low, polar bears adapt to that unique ecosystem, which includes a distinctive array of biodiversity capable of coping with the extreme conditions in those regions of the Earth.
Nitrogen represents an essential nutrient element in the soil. However, it is present in limited quantities. But there are some types of plants, known as "nitrogen-fixing plants," which can enhance the nitrogen supply in the soil through a symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-fixing diazotrophic bacteria from the atmosphere.
The Arctic, spanning several countries, including Canada, the United States (Alaska), Norway, Sweden, Finland, Russia, and parts of Greenland, as well as the Arctic Ocean, is one of the regions most threatened by climate change. Since 1979, temperatures in the Arctic have been rising four times faster than the global average.
Preserving wildlife and its biodiversity is one of the top priorities for supporting the ecosystem and maintaining its balance. In light of climate change and the steady rise in temperatures, a research group from the University of Michigan in the United States wanted to study the impact of rising temperatures on the immunity of wild capuchin monkeys.
The oldest fossil found on coral reefs indicates their existence nearly 400 million years ago, positioning them as one of the oldest living species that have endured numerous changes in the Earth's environment.
New York has become the second state in the U.S. to require fossil fuel companies to pay for climate damage, joining an increasing effort to hold major polluters accountable for the rising frequency and cost of extreme weather disasters.
Microbes are ubiquitous, found across the Earth, in the atmosphere, and in water bodies. They play a crucial role in the cycling of elements on our planet. Although invisible to the naked eye and observable only through specialized microscopes, these tiny organisms have significant impact on our lives.
Animal conservation experts in the United Kingdom and Portugal praised a breeding program that saved two critically endangered snail species, resulting in the release of 1,329 individuals on a remote island in the Atlantic Ocean.
Earthquakes are significant natural disasters that can cause extensive damage and loss.They consist of seismic waves that travel through the Earth's rocks, typically occurring when rock masses break and slide over one another. But can climate change contribute to the occurrence of earthquakes?
Brazil has experienced a significant rise in climate disasters in recent years, compared to the previous two decades.
The French Agency for Ecological Transition's study shed light on the extent of this pollution for the first time by systematically revealing the presence of microplastics in French agricultural soil.
Pastures are critical ecosystems that support livestock and a diverse array of plants and herbs. However, climate change is increasingly jeopardizing these environments.
Climate change is a mysterious and ongoing threat that seeps into the depths of the oceans and seas around the world, and the Arabian Gulf region is no exception to this sad reality, but have things reached the point of catastrophe?
Data collected by NASA's satellites reveal a decline in global cloud cover, exacerbating the effects of global warming.
