Researchers redesign plastics to save energy and reduce emissions.

Cities have become critical players in reducing the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that are causing global climate change.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the major greenhouse gases causing global warming.

Scientists at The Marine Mammal Center – the world’s largest marine mammal hospital – have found that viral-caused cancer in adult California sea lions is significantly increased by their exposure to toxins in the environment.

Evidence suggests particulate matter is the air pollutant which poses the greatest threat to global health.

The virtual conferencing that has replaced large, in-person gatherings in the age of COVID-19 represents a drastic reduction in carbon emissions, but those online meetings still come with their own environmental costs, new research from the University of Michigan shows.

New particle formation (NPF) is a major source of aerosol particles in global atmosphere.

The amount of methane released into the atmosphere as a result of coal mining is likely much higher than previously calculated, according to research presented at the annual meeting of the American Geophysical Union recently.

One of President Joe Biden’s first post-inauguration acts was to realign the United States with the Paris climate accord, but a new study led by researchers at the University of California, Irvine demonstrates that rising emissions from human land-use will jeopardize the agreement’s goals without substantial changes in agricultural practices.

It is common practice in climate policy to bundle the climate warming pollutants together and express their total effects in terms of “CO2 equivalence”.
