We are collectively failing to conserve the world’s biodiversity and to mobilize natural solutions to help curb global warming. 

Iceberg A-74, approximately 1.5 times the size of Greater Paris, calved from Antarctica’s Brunt Ice Shelf earlier this year.

The summer season is a prime time to observe colorful displays of phytoplankton in the Labrador and Barents seas.

Researchers conducted a nine-year experiment using herbicide-reduction practices in a dairy crop rotation.

During climate extremes, plants cannot produce sufficient energy-rich carbon compounds through photosynthesis and they become dependent on stored reserves. 

The island’s vast ice sheet underwent multiple bouts of widespread melting this summer, exacerbated in August 2021 by rain.

Vegetative health has become an important metric for climate scientists and meteorologists trying to understand how weather and temperature impact the health of crops, and as an extension, food security, food prices and the global agricultural market.

This year, the annual grasslands in part of California turned brown a month earlier than usual, shortening the grazing season.

The global food system depends strongly on pollination by insects. According to the European Commission, this ecosystem service can be estimated to be worth several billion euros for Europe alone.
