Ice all but disappeared from this Alaskan island. It changed everything. A warming Bering Sea kept ice away from this Alaskan island — leading to the closure of a crab processing plant and fraying of the community.

St. Paul Island recently completed its longest winter stretch in recorded history with above-freezing temperatures — 343 consecutive hours, or 14 days.

The drastic climate change has forced residents to consider how long they can last there.

How Melting Ice Sheets Are Fueling Ocean Life New research unveils how subglacial weathering of ice sheets may support polar marine ecosystems by enriching coastal waters with silicon—an essential nutrient for diatoms.

How stopping deforestation is a powerful “emergency brake” climate solution When people think of climate solutions, they often focus on smokestacks, tailpipes, and other artifacts of our fossil-fueled economy. That’s fitting since roughly two-thirds of the world’s greenhouse ...

Stopping deforestation is one of the best ways to help stop climate change. But we don't focus on it nearly enough.
