Climate change: a threat to human wellbeing and health of the planet
Climate Change 2022: Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability. Contribution of Working Group II to the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The Working Group II report examines the impacts of climate change on nature and people around the globe. It explores future impacts at different levels of warming and the ...
Climate change widespread, rapid, and intensifying
But it is not just about temperature. Climate change is bringing multiple different changes in different regions - which will all increase with further warming. These include changes to wetness and dryness, to winds, snow and ice, coastal areas and oceans. For example: Climate change is intensifying the water cycle.
The Science of Climate Change Explained: Facts, Evidence and Proof
Average global temperatures have increased by 2.2 degrees Fahrenheit, or 1.2 degrees Celsius, since 1880, with the greatest changes happening in the late 20th century. Land areas have warmed more ...
Climate change research and the search for solutions: rethinking
Urgency to solve climate change. Following the launch of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Special Report on 1.5C (IPCC 2018), pressure to take action on climate change has escalated significantly (Boykoff and Pearman 2019).While this attention is to be welcomed, it has implications for researchers of, and research on, climate change.
Research Guides: Climate Change
The main activity of the IPCC is to, at regular intervals, provide Assessment Reports of the state of knowledge on climate change. The IPCC is now in its sixth assessment cycle, in which it is producing the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) with contributions by its three Working Groups and a Synthesis Report, three Special Reports, and a refinement to its latest Methodology Report.

The Effects of Climate Change
Global climate change is not a future problem. Changes to Earth's climate driven by increased human emissions of heat-trapping greenhouse gases are already having widespread effects on the environment: glaciers and ice sheets are shrinking, river and lake ice is breaking up earlier, plant and animal geographic ranges are shifting, and plants and trees are blooming sooner.
Climate change is a crisis. How did we get here?
The climate change emergency. Even in a world increasingly battered by weather extremes, the summer 2021 heat wave in the Pacific Northwest stood out. For several days in late June, cities such as ...
Climate Change Research
Research confirmed the accuracy of ECOSTRESS surface estimates 1 and found that the process of photosynthesis in plants begins to fail at 46.7 degrees C (114 degrees F). 2 Average temperatures have increased 0.5 degrees C per decade in some tropical regions, and temperature extremes are becoming more pronounced.
The wicked problem of climate change and interdisciplinary research
We find that management scholarship on climate change (1) has grown significantly since the mid-2000s, (2) features substantial engagement with an interdisciplinary knowledge base, and (3) fails to attract the attention of climate change research within top-tier interdisciplinary journals.
Climate change and ecosystems: threats, opportunities and solutions
Climate change is a global problem, requiring multi-jurisdictional and multinational governance, yet many of the examples of NbS concern proof of concept studies over relatively small spatial scales. ...

Yes, There Has Been Progress on Climate. No, It's Not Nearly Enough
Current policies put the world on pace for roughly 2.9 degrees Celsius of warming by 2100. (That's a best estimate: the potential range is between 2.1 degrees and 3.9 degrees Celsius.) The ...

Environmental Changes Are Fueling Human, Animal and Plant Diseases
Several large-scale, human-driven changes to the planet — including climate change, the loss of biodiversity and the spread of invasive species — are making infectious diseases more dangerous ...
Why Some Americans Do Not See Urgency on Climate Change
Trust in climate scientists among all U.S adults. A 2022 Pew Research Center survey found that 23% of Americans say they have little or no trust in climate scientists to provide full and accurate information on climate change. Another 22% say they have some trust in climate scientists. At the other end of the spectrum, 54% of Americans say they ...
Americans' views of climate change in 8 charts
Perceptions of local climate impacts vary by Americans' political affiliation and whether they believe that climate change is a serious problem. A majority of Americans (61%) say that global climate change is affecting their local community either a great deal or some. About four-in-ten (39%) see little or no impact in their own community.

Mammals on 'Sky Islands' May Be Threatened By Climate Change, Human
A new study sheds light on how climate change and human development threaten mammal species living in isolated biodiversity hotspots known as "sky islands." Researchers placed camera traps throughout Mt. Kenya National Park in East Africa, following the same route up the mountain used by Theodore Roosevelt during his expedition there in 1909.
Climate change and race: The impact on Black lives
Impacts of climate change—such as property value damage, loss of labor productivity, health problems due to prolonged exposure to heat or lack of clean water and air, and temporary or permanent displacement when a residence becomes uninhabitable—can put the prospect of Black socioeconomic mobility in the United States at greater risk. Black populations are particularly vulnerable to ...
