La région allemande de Rhénanie a eu un avant-goût de ce que le changement climatique nous réservait dès la sécheresse de l’été 2018. Et ça n’a rien de réjouissant

À quoi bon bloquer les rues pour la planète si la génération de leaders qui accapare le pouvoir est résolue à continuer ses calculs électoralistes court-termistes, quitte à sacrifier tout espoir de qualité de vie pour ses enfants ?
Mais de tous les « à quoi bon », celui que j’entends le plus, c’est toujours : à quoi bon déranger, prendre la parole sur les sujets qui nous tiennent à coeur, si le coût de l’expression publique est devenu si élevé ?

Le seuil de l’accord de Paris a-t-il été franchi ? Non, pas forcément. Même si la température moyenne mondiale a été en juillet environ 1,5 °C plus élevée que pendant l’ère préindustrielle, la limite la plus ambitieuse de l’accord de Paris n’a pas forcément été atteinte, ce dernier se référant à l’évolution du climat sur des décennies

Despite the diversity in the design, stringency, and comprehensiveness of states’ climate policy regimes, scholars lack holistic assessments of the effectiveness of these efforts to reduce CO2 emissions

Based on the most recent estimates, these back-to-back typhoons brought about P1.94 billion in damages to agriculture and around P7 billion to infrastructure, leaving thousands of families homeless
In the middle of a climate catastrophe, young people are boggled with the question of what they should be doing, especially in a vulnerable country like the Philippines, where climate change-induced disasters like floods and droughts have become the norm

Climate change didn’t directly cause the drought in Uruguay and neighboring Argentina, as we reported last year. But global warming was a factor in extreme heat that made the drought worse, scientists said, by increasing the loss of moisture from soil and plants. Deforestation in the Amazon may have also played a rol

Over the past 14 years, the world's most populous nation has reduced its carbon emissions by a larger-than-expected 33%. According to the report filed to the United Nations Convention on Climate Change, India is well on its way to achieving the goal it established for itself in the Paris climate accord: To reduce its carbon emissions intensity by 45% from its 2005 levels by 2030

Climate change will make stomach bugs an even bigger problem, a new report has found. The study concludes that expected changes in temperature, precipitation, and humidity will make foodborne infections and toxins all the more common—at least in Germany. That said, other research has indicated that these increased risks will be seen globally as well

Americans remain remarkably passive while the fossil energy industry steals our quality of life and prospects for the future. It’s happening in plain sight and with our full cooperation. Heat waves, floods, tornadoes, drought and other deadly weather assault us
In 2021, scientists concluded that the “vast majority” of the world’s proven fossil fuel reserves must remain in the ground to have a 50 percent chance of preventing catastrophic climate change

À cause des changements climatiques, l’État français relocalise le village de Miquelon, situé sur une île au large de Terre-Neuve. Ses réflexions ont commencé dès 2011. Au Nouveau-Brunswick, le gouvernement a seulement prévu d’évaluer les risques d’ici 2025

Developed countries have consumed more than 80 per cent of the global carbon budget (since 1850) for limiting average temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius by 2100, leaving countries like India with ''very little carbon space for the future'

Tabletop games (board games, card games, role-playing games – anything that can be played around a table) have a unique ability to engage players in complex systems. Experiencing a scary imaginary future in a game can inspire players to take action in the real world. Games engage our brains in a different way than just hearing news about climate disasters. And they can prepare us to make better choices
