The Government is to introduce a low-carbon kitemark to enable consumers to choose greener products, as it aims to cut industrial emissions by two-thirds in 15 years, the business secretary will announce today.

Our summers are already about 20% longer than they used to be, and if the climate crisis continues unabated then northern hemisphere summers could cover nearly half of the year by 2100, making them more than twice as long as they were in the 1950s. And unlike their counterparts of the 1950s, future summers will be more extreme, with heatwaves and wildfires more likely.

The prospect of such a bleak future is anxiety-inducing. We spoke to nine young people about how eco-anxiety—the stress associated with facing a climate crisis and uncertainty about the future—is playing a role in their lives and what they’ve been doing in response.

Curtis Wynn, president and CEO of Roanoke Electric Cooperative, wants to repeat history, and bring the clean energy revolution to Roanoke's service area, a part of northeastern North Carolina where main streets sometimes are lined with empty storefronts and twenty percent of the people earn less than the poverty level.

When more than 180 nations agreed last year to place strict limits on exports of plastic waste from richer countries to poorer ones, the move was seen as a major victory in the fight against plastic pollution. However, exports of scrap plastic from the United States actually edged upward, to 48 million tons from 45 million tons the previous January.

A new study conducted by Think City – an organization aiming to make Malaysian cities more liveable and sustainable – revealed that there has been a considerable increase in the land surface temperatures of five Malaysian cities over the past five decades. Why the rise in temperatures?

Cooling the planet by filtering excess carbon dioxide out of the air on an industrial scale would require a new, massive global industry – what would it need to work?

The long-rumored Apple car might finally become a reality. After sputtering in development several years ago and then being shut down before it saw the light of day, the tech giant’s car project is apparently back on track. But, assuming it actually happens, what will the vehicle look like, what will it cost and how much different will it be from other EVs on the market?

Bushy, hairy-leafed cotoneaster is a "super plant" which can help soak up pollution on busy roads and ease environmental problems, horticultural experts have said. A one-metre length of cotoneaster hedge absorbs the same amount of pollution in a week that a car emits on a 500-mile drive.
