Heat waves, stretches of wet weather, long-term climate warming, and hurricanes take a toll on mental health -- all phenomena that are expected to become more frequent and intense with climate change.

A new European study reveals that people who commute through natural environments report better mental well-being than people who do not. These mental health benefits are most pronounced for those who walk or bike at least once a week.

Researchers calculate the energy required to provide basic material needs and have a decent living standard.

Animal migration is usually considered to be instinctive. What individual animals know and the lessons they pass to future generations isn’t much considered. Yet researchers are finding that protecting large mammal cultures may be critical to their future.

If global average temperature stabilizes at 2.0 °C above pre-industrial levels, summer sea-ice will be absent from the Arctic every 3 to 5 years. At 1.5 °C of warming, ice-free conditions happen only every 40 years or so.

Carbon capture and other negative-emission technologies will only seal our dependence on carbon, according to a paper published in the journal Science.

Researchers have gathered evidence that deaths of golden eagles (Aquila chrysaetos) at a single wind farm in northern California may have effects on the entire western U.S. population of this species.

Researchers find a way to tweak carbon fixation rates to achieve higher crop yields.
