Climate science can be overwhelming. Here’s your easy-to-share highlight reel.
ON A BUDGET

New data shows that our current Carbon Budget is even smaller than we thought. The likelihood of limiting our planet's warming to 1.5 C is getting slimmer with each ton of carbon we emit.

HASTY HURRICANE

Hurricane Otis went from heavy rain to a Category 5 storm in just twelve hours. This was an extreme case of what scientists call rapid intensification, and we should prepare for more in the future.

UPCYCLING LITHIUM

While electric vehicles remain a viable climate solution, the mining and waste of manufacturing lithium-ion batteries has proved to be immensely problematic. So in response, these Swedish developers have streamlined a new method for battery recycling. Could this be the future?

FRIENDLY FRIDGES

Americans throw out a staggering amount of food every year. But community fridges are an incredible pathway to reduce food waste and help feed our communities. Read about how these neighborhoods are making it work.

TREE WALK

Species like Giant Sequoias can’t pick up and move if they’re threatened by climate change, so should we help them? Assisted tree migration is one of the most recent debates on how much humans should intercede with a warming planet. What do you think?

CURB APPEAL

Despite nagging neighbors, it’s actually best not to mow your lawn, if you have one. New reports show that lawn care is one of the largest sources of U.S. air pollution, and it serves virtually no purpose!

CAN'T TAKE THE HEAT

It’s too hot for our hearts to handle. Cardiovascular deaths in the U.S could increase as much as 233% due to the heat.


Here’s what it looks like when people show up, voices ring loud and leaders act for the sake of the planet.
SO LONG LAWNS

Perfectly manicured lawns are no longer the symbol of the American dream. Especially since they don’t help sequester carbon or prevent water runoff. Beautiful meadows are the new thing, and Pennsylvania is paying folks to convert.

TRANSMISSION RECEIVED

The Department of Energy is helping clean energy happen faster by giving loans to build the transmission lines we need. And the program is far from the last.

OREGON REORIENTS

Oregon utilities were trying to keep homes reliant on methane gas, while footing taxpayers with the very expensive bill. But not after this landmark settlement! Read about the case, and why it’s such a big win for electrification.

CLEAN-UP FEES

Enbridge’s northern Minnesota oil pipeline has been operating for two years. Yet state regulators have already approved a plan to ensure the company pays to decommission the pipeline regardless of whether it goes out of business.

REEF RESTORATION

Titouan Bernicot was just sixteen when we launched the idea of Coral Gardeners. Many marine biologists doubted his ability to restore coral reefs. Now it’s the most advanced restoration project on the planet.

BIG WIND ENERGY

The Biden Administration has finalized four new regions for offshore wind power in the Gulf of Mexico. Millions of homes in the region may be powered by wind in the near future.

FREE NATURE

The UK wants its kids to have a nature education, and the largest wildlife conservation charity in Europe has a new plan to make it happen. See how they’ll give young adults free access to nature reserves.

LIGHTING A TORCH

Did you know the idea of polluting countries supporting the world’s poorest as they deal with climate change came from one man? Saleemul Huq. In light of his death, read about his powerful work for climate equity.

FIRST BIG CUTS

The Speaker has spoken… and it’s not looking good for the environment. In his first bill passed as House Speaker, Mike Johnson helped pass a partisan energy plan that would cut funding already allocated for climate change initiatives.

CLIMATE ON TRIAL

Climate change’s damage to ecosystems can intensify existing human conflicts and create new ones. So activists are taking a new approach to warfare: Petitioning the International Criminal Court. Could they do something to help?

CLOSING THE FLOODGATES

A historic black Alabama neighborhood was having a huge flooding problem. So they turned to a hometown hero: Robert Bullard, the founder of environmental justice. Find out what he is doing to help.

COLLEGE COURT

Colleges and universities have been continuously pressed to divest their endowments from fossil fuels, but many schools remain uncommitted. Find out how students from six universities are using one law to end these investments.

WITHOUT WARNING

Weather stations remain an important tool for warning citizens about impending and threatening conditions. But a significant lack of these terminals in Africa and the Global South leaves people in the dark, with no notice if they are a risk for extreme weather.

FAIR FOOD PROGRAM

Protecting the people who grow our food is as easy as shade and water. But since heat protection is not the law, a human rights campaign is trying another way. As we face record heat, their work is more important than ever.

TITLE VI

For decades, the EPA has failed to protect communities of color and immigrants from discriminatory exposure to environmental ills. After a promise by the Biden administration to use full regulatory force, it stopped. What happened?

I CANT HEAR YOU

Due to millions in lobbying from fossil fuel corporations for anti-protest laws, roughly 60% of U.S. oil and gas operations are now protected against protests and civil disobedience — a terrifying threat to freedom of speech.

SHADY BEHAVIOR

Where do you think illegal Amazon loggers and miners might be hiding their money? Turns out, it’s in the United States. Find out about the financial loopholes making it possible, and what we can do about it.
