Antarctic Snow Records 50 Years of 'Forever Chemical' Pollution — Still Rising
A 1,200-kilometre trek across East Antarctica has mapped decades of PFAS deposition in snow. One compound — trifluoroacetic acid — has risen every single year since 1976.

Japan is suspending emissions caps on its oldest, dirtiest coal plants for a year. The reason: 6% of its LNG and over 90% of its oil passed through a strait that is now a war zone.
Eleven river basins hold less than a quarter of their normal snow water. Lake Powell could fall below minimum power pool by December. The data tell a story the West cannot ignore.
The spill is still ongoing. Mexican authorities say three sources are leaking — including a vessel they haven't identified yet. Environmental groups report dolphins, manatees, and sea turtles among the dead.
$10 trillion. That's the economic damage from U.S. emissions since 1990, according to a new Stanford study. The bill is coming due for everyone—including the United States.
The bill would freeze all new AI data center construction until Congress acts. The industry's energy demand is projected to nearly double by 2028—equivalent to adding Spain's entire electricity consumption.
The WMO says Earth's energy imbalance reached a record high in 2025, trapping heat at unprecedented levels as a new El Niño threatens to push temperatures even higher.
A 10-meter humpback whale has been trapped for three days off Germany's Baltic coast. New rescue equipment arrives Wednesday — but water levels are falling.
From 2028, gas heating is banned in new builds—heat pumps and solar panels are mandatory. Meanwhile, plug-in balcony solar panels are finally coming to British supermarkets.
An Australian born today will lose $185,000 over their lifetime if climate policy stays on its current track. Deloitte's economists have put a price tag on delay—and the younger you are, the steeper it gets.
A 50-year-old ski lift on the Zugspitze is being torn down because the ice beneath it has melted away. Germany's last four glaciers are disappearing twice as fast as they were five years ago.
The 11 hottest years ever recorded all occurred between 2015 and 2025. The excess heat Earth trapped last year will persist for thousands of years — and every key climate indicator is 'flashing red.'
Rolls-Royce is the latest manufacturer to abandon its all-electric deadline. With nearly $70 billion in industry write-downs and federal EV tax credits killed, the conditions that were supposed to accelerate the energy transition are instead killing it.
A desert community near Yuma hit 110°F on Thursday — the highest March temperature ever recorded in the United States. Climate scientists say the event would have been "virtually impossible" without human-caused warming.
More than 5,500 people north of Honolulu have been ordered to evacuate as officials warn that a 120-year-old dam is at risk of catastrophic failure. The structure, built in 1904, was designed for a climate that no longer exists.
Water poured over the Wahiawa Dam's spillway at 1,500 gallons per second as 5,500 people fled towns below. Dole Food Company has known the spillway was undersized since 1978.
Monarch colonies in Mexico expanded 64% this winter to their largest area since 2018. The catch: they're still down more than 80% from the 1990s, and well below the threshold scientists say they need to survive.
Martinez Lake, Arizona, hit 43.3°C on Thursday — the highest March temperature ever recorded in the US. Scientists say the event was virtually impossible without climate change. It landed on the first day of spring.
Nine days after releasing a record 400 million barrels from emergency reserves, the IEA is now asking people to slow down, stay home, and stop flying. The agency's 10-point plan reads less like gentle advice and more like preparation for a long haul.
The EPA's reversal of the 2009 endangerment finding doesn't just kill one regulation — it pulls the legal floor out from under every federal climate rule on the books. A coalition of states and environmental groups is fighting to stop it.
