An in-depth global analysis warns that high-tech solutions alone can’t remove enough carbon to stop climate change. Experts urge a balanced strategy combining natural ecosystems and engineered methods for rapid and lasting climate action.

Ancient carbon once presumed safely entombed beneath Earth’s surface is now bubbling back into the atmosphere through the world's rivers—challenging long-held assumptions about the global carbon cycle.

New global maps reveal that realistic reforestation opportunities are 71-92% smaller than previously believed. By fixing data flaws and addressing social and environmental risks, scientists found just 195 million hectares are safely restorable.

Hurricane Barbara, the first of 2025, is threatening Mexico’s Pacific coast with dangerous surf, flooding, and rip currents. With two other active storms, officials warn 17 million people to prepare for life-threatening conditions.

A new study shows that eating a variety of flavonoid-rich food, such as berries, tea, apples, and dark chocolate, may lower disease risk and improve lifespan more than consuming a large quantity from just one source.

A new UN-affiliated report warns that planting trees to fight climate change may backfire by increasing wildfire risks. Poor monitoring and outdated science could turn forests from carbon sinks into dangerous carbon emitters.

Colombia is turning climate change into a catalyst for innovation in agriculture. Through climate-smart farming, shade-grown coffee, policy reforms and carbon capture, the country offers a global model for sustainable agricultural development.

NASA’s Psyche mission, launched in 2023, aims to study a rare metal-rich asteroid believed to be a planetary core. Though valued at $100,000 quadrillion, mining Psyche remains a distant and unrealistic goal for now.

The ocean supports life on Earth by regulating climate, feeding billions, and sustaining economies. But climate change is damaging it rapidly, endangering Small Island Nations and global stability. Protecting the ocean is now urgent.

A Super-Earth named Kepler-725c has been discovered in the habitable zone of a Sun-like star, 2,400 light-years away. Scientists say it may have water, a rocky surface, and even conditions suitable for life.
