A new study shows extreme heat, fueled by climate change, has caused 25–38% decline in tropical bird populations since 1950. Researchers warn that even protected forests face major biodiversity losses as birds struggle to survive worsening heatwaves.

Brazil will host COP30 from 10–21 November in Belém, the first UN climate summit in the Amazon. The event will focus on climate finance, nature protection, energy transition, and faster implementation of global climate goals. COP30 CEO Ana Toni stressed the need for a stronger strategy to move away from fossil fuels and more support

A new UN-backed report warns that severe droughts from 2023–2024 have sharply impacted sugar, rice, and coffee production globally. India and Thailand saw sugar output fall by over 12% due to extreme dry weather. The disruptions are linked to climate change and worsened by the El Niño phenomenon, leading to global food inflation and rising

The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has warned that Asia is heating almost twice as fast as the global average. Its latest State of the Climate in Asia report states that 2024 was one of the region’s hottest years on record, with severe heatwaves, glacier loss, and marine heat extremes. India faced over 450 heat-related deaths,

A 2023 study led by the UK’s National Oceanography Centre has found a major shift in ocean colours across the globe. Using 20 years of NASA satellite data, researchers discovered that 56% of the world’s ocean surface has changed hue. The cause is likely climate change, affecting phytoplankton—the microscopic organisms that shape marine life and

A NASA-powered study by Japan’s Toho University reveals Earth’s life will end not due to meteors or climate change but from a gradual oxygen loss. The process, expected to take billions of years, results from changes in the sun’s brightness, which will disrupt the planet’s atmosphere and reduce oxygen levels critical to survival.
