The study published last year found that soils under mature pine forests had about half as much carbon as nearby soils that stayed as grassland, and that the carbon lost from the soil was equal to around a third of the carbon that the trees had absorbed from the atmosphere

A new study of climate extremes since 1988 finds that many regions have seen increases in deaths due to floods, storms and extreme temperatures. In human terms, the harm comes not just from deaths, but also from lost labor and property damage. (And this doesn't consider damage to species and ecosystems.) A new look at trends and outliers has been published in Geophysical Research Letters

Some households may have multiple reusable cups stacking up at home, collecting dust.

The UN Environment Programme (UNEP) said a reusable plastic cup would need to be used around 20 times to make it better for the environment.

Meanwhile, it found stainless steel cups need to be reused over 130 times to have a climate impact that is equivalent to a paper cup with a polystyrene lid

Without more rigorous data collected at the scale of commercial agriculture, they caution, efforts to credit soil carbon with emissions reductions risk overstating benefits and undermining trust

The shocking reason Arctic rivers are turning rusty orange

Ice doesn’t just freeze, it fuels hidden chemistry that could turn rivers rusty as the planet warms

Researchers found that ice can trigger stronger chemical reactions than liquid water, dissolving iron minerals in extreme cold. Freeze-thaw cycles amplify the effect, releasing iron into rivers Arctic & soils. With climate change accelerating these cycles, Arctic waterways may face major transformations
