Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R–Ga.) and leading MAGA mountebank earlier this month urgently demanded that "we must end the dangerous and deadly practice of weather modification and geoengineering." ...
Last April, the Trump administration effectively canceled funding for the National Climate Assessment Report, firing hundreds of scientists working on it. That assessment is vital to provide ...
One of the many dangers of continuing to pump carbon dioxide into the atmosphere is that we could trigger tipping points such as the shutdown of crucial ocean currents. Now, a modelling study suggests ...
Ship engines spew particles that drift into the lower atmosphere, creating linear, reflective clouds called ship tracks, which can cool the ocean. FSU research asks whether the phenomenon could ...
On April 22, The Guardian reported that the United Kingdom’s Advanced Research and Invention Agency is set to launch a series of outdoor experiments using “solar radiation management,” or SRM, to ...
Arizona Rep. Eli Crane has called efforts to limit planet-warming emissions “climate conspiracy nonsense.” A Republican ...
