Nearly Half Of World's Population Could Suffer Extreme Heat By 2050, Oxford Study Warns
Nearly half of the world's population could be living under conditions of extreme heat by the middle of this century if current fossil fuel use continues, according to new research from the University of Oxford.

Sinking Calcium Carbonate Locked Away Greenhouse Gases, Reveals New Study
Scientists have solved a 66-million-year climate mystery, explaining how Earth cooled from a tropical greenhouse to an ice-capped world. New research reveals ocean calcium levels dropped by more than half, reshaping marine chemistry. As calcium declined, oceans locked away more carbon dioxide, lowering atmospheric CO2. The study links deep-Earth pr...

Study Reveals Mars Has A Much Stronger Influence On Earth's Climate
Previous research on deep-sea sediments had suggested that Mars might influence Earth's climate, but the magnitude of this influence had not been clearly established.

Rising Global Threat Of Brain Eating Amoeba Linked To Climate Change: Study
The free-living amoebae, also known as brain-eating amoeba, are becoming a growing global public health threat, warned a new study.

New Study Explains Why Earth’s Poles Are Heating Up at an Alarming Rate
The Arctic is warming faster than anywhere on Earth, and new research reveals why. Using aircraft and ground measurements, scientists found that openings in sea ice boost cloud formation while pollution from oil fields alters Arctic chemistry. Together, these processes form powerful feedback loops that trap heat and speed ice loss. The findings hig...

How Much Water Does AI Use? Consumption Now Exceeds World’s Bottled Water, Suggests New Study
Anthropic has released an open-source tool called Bloom to test how AI models behave under normal and stressful conditions. Bloom automates behavioural testing by generating scenarios, running them at scale, and scoring responses for traits like bias or sycophancy. Anthropic says it simplifies a process that was previously manual and time-consuming...

Climate Change Could Increase Chances Of Child Stunting In South Asia By 2050, Says New Study
Researchers at the US' University of California Santa Barbara looked at how exposure to extremely hot, humid conditions during pregnancy can impact children's health in the populous continent.

New Study Shows Antarctic Waters Unleashed Ancient Carbon at the Ice Age’s End
New research shows that shifting Antarctic circulation after the last Ice Age released ancient deep-ocean carbon into the atmosphere. Using Southern Ocean sediment cores, scientists traced how expanding Antarctic Bottom Water mixed long-isolated, carbon-rich waters upward. The findings reveal a major but underappreciated driver of early Holocene wa...

Scientists Warn Southern Ocean Could ‘Burp’ Stored Heat, Delaying Global Cooling for 100 Years
New modelling suggests the Southern Ocean could one day release the vast heat it has stored from greenhouse gas pollution. If CO₂ levels were pushed to net-negative, deep convection may trigger a sudden “thermal burp” that warms the planet for decades. Though idealised, the study shows how Antarctica’s surrounding seas could shape long-term...

Climate Change Increases Risk Of Underweight By 25% In India's Vulnerable Districts: Study
Districts highly vulnerable to climate change consistently underperform on achieving health targets, such as stunting and problems accessing healthcare, compared to less vulnerable districts.
