World's Biggest Polluter? It's The US Military, Says Shocking Study
The study reveals that the US military is the single largest institutional emitter of greenhouse gases in the world. Researchers suggest that reducing military spending could significantly lower energy use and help combat climate change.

Global Warming Clouds Changes Are Making Earth More Even Hotter: Study
At any given time, about two-thirds of Earth's surface is covered by clouds. Overall, they make the planet much cooler than it would be without them.

Rise In Greenhouse Gas Release Causing More Extreme Weather, Scientists Warn
Humans are on track to release so much greenhouse gas in less than three years that a key threshold for limiting global warming will be nearly unavoidable, according to a study to be released Thursday.

Emperor Penguin Population Declining At Alarming Rate In Antarctica: Study
Emperor penguin populations in Antarctica have shrunk by almost a quarter as global warming transforms their icy habitat, according to new research on Tuesday that warned the losses were far worse than previously imagined.

Climate Change Added Extra Month Of Extreme Heat For Half The World: Study
The findings underscore how the continued burning of fossil fuels is harming health and well-being on every continent, with the effects especially under-recognized in developing countries.

Extreme Glaciers Could Lose Most Of Their Ice If Global Warming Continues: Study
More than twice as much global glacier mass will remain if countries restrict temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius, compared to the warming level of 2.7 degrees Celsius resulting from the current policies, says a new study released.

Major Ice Sheets May Already Be Past The Point Of No Return: Study
The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are melting fast, and the process may be impossible to stop, a new study has warned.

New Study Reveals Recent Ice Gains in Antarctica, But Long-Term Melting Continues
A study led by researchers at Tongji University using NASA's GRACE satellites has observed recent ice gains in Antarctica from 2021 to 2023, mainly due to unusual precipitation. However, the long-term satellite data from 2002 to 2020 shows a significant and accelerating trend of ice loss. However, experts emphasize this short-term gain does not rev...

Heatwaves Increase Risk Of Pregnancy Complications By 1.25 Times: Study
In 222 out of the 247 countries and territories studied, "climate change at least doubled the average annual number of pregnancy heat-risk days experienced during the past five years", the report said.

Global Warming Will Make The Average Person 40% Poorer, Study Warns
A new study reveals global heating's economic impact will be far worse than previously expected, predicting a 40% wealth reduction with 4 degree Celsius warming and a 16% reduction in global GDP at 2 degree Celsius.

4 Degree Celsius Rise In Temperature May Cut Global GDP By 40%: Study
A team of Australian researchers on Tuesday said that 4-degree Celsius rise in global temperatures would cut world GDP by around 40 per cent by 2100 - a sharp increase from previous estimates of around 11 per cent.

China Loses 26 Percent of Its Glaciers Due to Global Warming, Claims New Study
China's glaciers have shrunk by 26 percent over six decades, with nearly 7,000 small glaciers disappearing. Data from the Chinese Academy of Sciences reveals that glacier area dropped from 59,000 sq km in the 1960s to 46,000 sq km by 2020. Scientists warn that continued ice loss could worsen water shortages. Authorities are trying to slow the proce...

'Climate Whiplash' Hitting World's Cities Amid Rising Temperatures: Study
The weather in some of the world's most densely populated cities is swinging from droughts to floods and back again as rising temperatures play havoc with the global water cycle, a study commissioned by the charity WaterAid showed on Wednesday.

Melting Ice Could Slow World's Strongest Ocean Current: Study
The world's strongest ocean current could slow as melting Antarctic ice sheets flood it with fresh water, according to research published on Monday that warned of "severe" climate consequences.
