The India Meteorological Department (IMD) confirmed that India received 836.2 mm of rainfall during June–September 2025, about 7–8% above the normal 778.6 mm. This marks the second consecutive year of surplus rains. Heavy downpours in September and early onset drove the increase, but extreme weather caused severe floods, landslides, and destruction.

A new study warns that unchecked climate change may cause a 24% drop in global per capita income by 2100. Researchers from the University of Cambridge analyzed economic data and climate scenarios, finding that all nations—rich and poor—face severe losses if warming continues.

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:

A new study in Environmental Research Letters warns that climate change could disrupt the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), which includes the Gulf Stream. This system regulates global climate. Scientists predict severe weakening by 2100, and even total collapse under high-emission scenarios.

A study by the Technical University of Munich reveals lightning strikes kill around 320 million trees yearly across the world. This excludes trees burned in fires started by lightning, meaning the actual number may be higher. Researchers created a new global model to measure tree deaths caused by lightning and predict its growing role in
