Economy, science and the wider world
Climate data, political choices and local pollution all shape the planet’s future. Our environment news covers the science behind the warnings and the decisions governments make, or avoid, in response.
Recent reports cover a World Meteorological Organization assessment of climate indicators, a strong El Niño and its impact on weather and markets, and alleged misconduct in PFAS testing of pesticides at the EPA. Policy stories examine New Zealand’s government, Australian Labor’s nature pledges and four years of French climate action.
Local and practical angles complete the picture: pollution threatening Napa Valley vineyards, efforts to save the Dead Sea and a podcast on concrete made without CO2 emissions. Start with the climate indicator report for the overall trend, then read the policy pieces to see how different countries respond.
