As the Earth inches closer to 2°C of average warming above pre-industrial levels, some scientists aren’t just interested in how to cut emissions. They’re also interested in how to buy the planet more ...

For a couple decades, following along with climate engineering discussions could occasionally induce some déjà vu. The idea of intentionally messing with the climate system in order to counteract some ...

The more people we spoke with, the clearer it became that we needed to talk to even more people. And with every conversation, ...

After decades of trying to stop Earth from heating up, scientists are exploring how to reverse climate change and maybe even cool the planet back down. Could clouds be brightened so they reflect more ...

Within weeks of the U.S. election, President Donald Trump said he intended to scrap NASA’s research on climate change, shifting those resources—less than $2 billion of the agency’s $19 billion ...

A study reports that scattering sunlight-reflecting particles in the atmosphere -- a theoretical form of climate engineering known as 'stratospheric aerosol injection' -- has potential to slow rapid ...

Climate change is already fueling dangerous heat waves, raising sea levels and transforming the oceans. Even if countries meet their pledges to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions that are driving ...

Work continues on an international climate change framework to succeed the UN’s Kyoto Protocol, which expires in 2012. In addition to political hurdles, Yvo de Boer, executive secretary of the UN ...

When we talk about the climate crisis, the blame often trickles downward. Ordinary people are told to recycle more, eat less meat, buy electric cars, and shrink their “carbon footprints.” However, a ...
