Cutting emissions today limits future climate impacts, but certain changes are ‘locked in’ due to past CO2 emissions
Sea levels will rise this century and remain elevated for thousands of years due to our past emissions. Ice sheets, glaciers, and ocean temperatures will also face irreversible changes.

Heatwave in England to bring temperatures above 32°C (89.6°F) – study finds climate change made this 100 times more likely
Study finds climate change made June 2025 heatwave in England 10 times more likely and temperatures above 32°C (89.6°F) 100 times more likely.

Glacier collapse recently buried a Swiss village – here’s what scientists say triggered the event
The Birch Glacier collapse was mainly triggered by sudden rock avalanches which accumulated on top of the glacier, adding excess weight. Climate change likely contributed by destabilizing the slope of the Kleines Nesthorn mountain peak.

Human-driven climate change largely responsible for last 50 years of worsening fire weather in Western North America, new study shows
Fire weather has been worsened by human-driven climate change in Western North America for 50 years, new study finds. Recent paper suggests that human-driven climate change contributed 81-188% to the observed increase in fire weather in that region.

InaccurateAntarctica recently gained some ice; that doesn’t mark the end of ice loss, global warming or sea-level rise, contrary to viral claims
Claim:
Antarctica gained ice from 2021 to 2023 so global warming is over, sea-levels aren't rising, and ice loss has reversed in Antarctica.

Agriculture emits greenhouse gases, but less than using fossil fuels, despite recent paper’s claim
A paper used unusual accounting methods by looking only at gross emissions and omitting CO2 sinks through reforestation; climate scientists explain that this method is misleading. It is like evaluating the status of your bank account based only on your income without looking at your expenses.
