Scientists disagree whether human-made climate change or natural fluctuations are mostly to blame for worse-than-expected heat in recent years ...

In the past two months, the Island’s seen more than one snowstorm or full-on blizzard, frigid temperatures that froze ponds, and wind chills that drew tears from the eyes. In this moment, climate ...

Physical inactivity rises alongside temperature. A study in Lancet projected up to 520,000 additional deaths by 2050 and $2.59 billion in annual productivity losses.

Global warming may be speeding up, with temperatures rising faster since 2015 and recent record-hot years reflecting a steeper climate trend.

New research reveals that drying forest soils can boost methane uptake, offering a small but important climate benefit as ...

This puts us on a collision course with the climate’s tipping points, said Stefan Rahmstorf, an author of the study and head ...

The Earth is actually coming out of an ice age, so it's relatively cold in the grand scheme of Earth's history. But the issue ...

People quickly normalize extreme weather. Simple visuals highlighting abrupt change could help climate change break through our mental blind spots.

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. A map of ocean temperature anomalies (differences from normal) during a strong El Niño. Red colors mean the ocean water is warmer ...

Meteorologists are reaching for superlatives to describe an oncoming heat wave so intense and rare for this time of year that it could leave some locations shattering their all-time temperature ...

Scientists say recent extreme snowstorms are consistent with weather patterns shifting due to climate change. A warmer atmosphere holds more moisture, which can lead to more intense precipitation, ...

As the planet warms, many expected ecosystems to change faster and faster. Instead, a massive global study shows that species turnover has slowed by about one-third since the 1970s. Nature’s constant ...
