‘Termination shock’: trust our expert warnings on geoengineering’s planetary risks | Raymo
Do we really want to play dice with our planet?A series in the Guardian recently declared “it’s time to talk about geoengineering.” So let’s talk about it. And let us start with some simple truths about this cluster of techno-optimistic “quick fixes” which purport to somehow offs
The Guardian view on extreme heat: as risks escalate, adaptation plans are dangerously lag
Record-breaking temperatures should focus minds on the UK’s lack of preparedness for the climate dangers aheadAs western Europe bakes under what scientists describe as a heat dome, or “atmospheric lid”, reports of dozens of drownings, and heat-linked deaths of children and elderl
Drifting tuna gear creates risks for wildlife in protected marine areas
An international study co-authored by a University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa researcher has found that drifting devices used by the global tuna fishing industry are entering marine protected areas around the world, creating potential risks for wildlife and sensitive ocean habitats.
The 'water-saving' effect of vegetation under rising CO₂ may be overestimated
The 'water-saving' effect of vegetation under rising CO₂ may be overestimated
Climate warming is intensifying terrestrial water scarcity and drought risks worldwide. Meanwhile, rising atmospheric CO2 reduces plant stomatal conductance—the openness of leaf pores that governs both CO2 intake and water loss—and improves water-use efficiency, which has been wi
Most bees are solitary and don't live in hives: How climate change risks them starving
Most bees are solitary and don't live in hives: How climate change risks them starving
When we think of bees, we often think of flowers. The more flowers, the better, right? Well, not exactly. Like us, bees need to consume specific nutrients in suitable amounts and combinations.
Why Ho Chi Minh City's pollution sources may have been misread for years
Biomass burning, including the combustion of wood, charcoal and agricultural residues, is a major source of PM2.5, a fine particulate matter that degrades air quality and poses risks to human health. Much of this pollution is tracked by looking at levels of levoglucosan, a chemic
Q&A: What happens when warming streams push young salmon beyond their limits
Q&A: What happens when warming streams push young salmon beyond their limits
As climate change warms rivers across British Columbia, young salmon are facing increasing heat stress at vulnerable stages of their lives. Two studies from UBC's Pacific Salmon Ecology and Conservation Lab have found that younger fish cope with heat differently than older fish a
Escaped flowerhorn fish threaten biodiversity, pose potential public health risks in Lagun
A hardy aquarium fish prized for its golden hue, the ornamental Flowerhorn cichlid (Amphilophus spp.) has become a problem for the residents of San Pablo City, Laguna: It is increasingly taking on an outsized role in both the natural ecosystem and local aquaculture operations in
Teenagers understand social media algorithms but want more control, study finds
Teenagers want a greater voice in the design and governance of platforms such as TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, according to new research led by University College Dublin. Rather than passive victims of social media algorithms, the study found adolescents have a sophisticated und
Health risk fears for storks in Europe over ‘junk food’ from landfill
Rubbish dumps can expose birds to contaminants, raising questions over whether landfill foraging helps or harmsStorks are gaining weight from a diet of literal junk, according to research that suggests the previously disappearing birds face potential health risks as a result of i
Study examines Miami-Dade County resilience plans
Study examines Miami-Dade County resilience plans
A University of Miami study has developed a new approach to evaluate how multiple climate resilience plans work together—or fail to do so—in addressing the growing risks posed by climate-related hazards. The researchers analyzed 37 resilience plans developed at the regional, coun
Employees who feel overqualified view more work tasks as unreasonable
Employers typically seek out well-qualified candidates, but a new study by researchers in the Penn State School of Hospitality Management highlights the potential risks associated with workers who feel overqualified for their jobs. When employees saw themselves as overqualified,
