Scientists understood physics of climate change in the 1800s – thanks to a woman named Eunice Foote
(THE CONVERSATION) Long before the current political divide over climate change, and even before the U.S. Civil War (1861-1865), an American scientist named Eunice Foote documented the underlying ...
Temperature and sea ice data consistent with human-driven climate change | Fact check
Extensive evidence, including global temperature and sea ice data, shows Earth's climate is changing due to human activity.
Scientists have a new explanation for the last two years of record heat
Rising temperatures are fueled, in part, by declining cloud cover — which could be a potential climate feedback loop.

Global warming and mass extinctions: What we can learn from plants from the last ice age
Global warming is producing a rapid loss of plant species -- according to estimates, roughly 600 plant species have died out since 1750 -- twice the number of animal species lost. But which species ...
Two new studies suggest Paris climate goal is dead. One scientist is going even further
As global heat records are obliterated, scientists conclude it’s a signal the planet is likely on track to breach the Paris ...
