UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned that global efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C are failing. Speaking ahead of a climate week in New York, he urged countries to submit stronger climate action plans. He said drastic emission cuts are essential within the next few years to keep the Paris Agreement goal alive. BulletsIn UN chief:

At the African Climate Summit in Ethiopia last week, leaders warned global military costs are draining aid for climate adaptation. They urged richer nations and private investors to step up, as Africa faces worsening floods, droughts and heatwaves. BulletsIn Global military spending at $2.7 trillion in 2024 Spending jumped 9.4% from 2023, steepest since Cold

105India’s power-sector CO₂ emissions fell 1% year-on-year in the first half of 2025. The decline came from record clean-energy growth and mild weather, marking just the second fall in nearly five decades. BulletsIn Emissions fell 1% YoY in Jan–Jun 2025 Only second decline in ~50 years Clean energy, mild weather key drivers CREA: 65% drop

112Northern India has faced record-breaking rainfall in September 2025. Dehradun received 264 mm in 24 hours, while Himachal Pradesh saw 141 mm. Scientists link the unusual intensity to western disturbances, Bay of Bengal winds, rising temperatures, and climate change.

Across India’s growing cities, stars and the Milky Way are vanishing due to light pollution. Astronomers, ecologists, and health experts warn that unchecked artificial lighting is harming ecosystems, human health, and even deep-space research. BulletsIn 80% of world population can’t see Milky Way India’s cities worst hit due to LEDs, floodlights, urban sprawl Light pollution

A new study shows that the evolution of the Indian monsoon is linked to Antarctic glaciation 34 million years ago. Researchers used a fossil leaf from Nagaland to trace how polar ice growth shifted global rainfall, shaping monsoon patterns in India.
