How to create carbon-neutrality in agriculture
Agriculture is one of the major contributors to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, accounting for approximately 25 per cent of global emissions.
The three eras of loss and damage
As we enter this third era of loss and damage, for which no country is really prepared, the whole world will need to find better ways of cooperation within and across national boundaries.
Mangrove forests: Nature's frontier between life and loss
In the present era of climate change, mangrove ecosystems have been silently acting as our climate guardian
Meat-eaters behind much of global greenhouse emission
Global meat consumption has increased significantly in recent decades, with per capita consumption almost doubling since the early 1960s, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). Whereas an average of 23.1 kilograms (50.8 pounds) of meat per person were consumed annually in the '60s, the figure had risen to 43.2 kilograms in 2019. Studies show that wealthier countries tend to consume more meat. Projections show that global per capita meat consumption will climb to 69.5 kilograms in 2022 — but the figure will be 27.6 kilograms in the developing world.
Greenhouse gas levels in atmosphere hit new high: UN
The levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, the main driver of climate change, have hit a new record high, the UN says, warning that the time to act is running out.
Climate change poised to hurt food supplies: study
The effects of climate change on food production could cause 500,000 extra deaths by 2050 compared to a world without global warming, according to a study released Thursday.
Gas from thawing permafrost could add further to global warming: study
Arctic permafrost that is thawing due to global warming is releasing greenhouse gases, further compounding the problem of climate change, according to a study released on Thursday.
Climate talks shift from binding targets to 'name and shame'
It's clear at this point that even if the international climate accord being negotiated in suburban Paris becomes legally binding, it won't include punitive measures like trade sanctions or embargoes on straggler countries that fail to meet their commitments.
Next two years hottest, says Met Office
The next two years could be the hottest on record globally, says research from the UK's Met Office.
