Joshua trees face climate threat despite heat adaptation, study finds Though it may seem counterintuitive, desert-dwelling plants and animals who are well-adapted to hot, dry conditions are still threatened by rising temperatures, drought, and other extremes caused by climate change https://phys.org/news/2025-09-joshua-trees-climate-threat.html #USA #US #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #IrreversibleOverheating #UpheavalClimate #GlobalBurning #ClimateDestruction #ClimateSuicide #MassExtinction #pollution #ecology #environment #climate
Climate change poses unique threats to some of the most foundational human experiences: giving birth & growing up. That’s the conclusion of a recent summary report compiled by researchers at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, which shows that climate change is exposing tens of millions of women and children to a worsening slate of physical, mental, and social risks—particularly if they live in the poorest reaches of the globe

Microsoft had "dozens" of cloud computing and AI contracts with fossil fuel companies. Many of the projects were helping oil and gas companies extract fossil fuels more cheaply by making their operations more efficient, or by accessing previously inaccessible deposits https://www.nationalobserver.com/2025/09/08/news/whistleblower-ai-big-oil #AI #tech #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #IrreversibleOverheating #UpheavalClimate #GlobalBurning #ClimateDestruction #ClimateSuicide #MassExtinction #pollution #ecology #environment #climate
The unpredictable availability of water, for instance, remains one of the most pressing forms of climate vulnerability in peanut growing regions. This is particularly the case in Senegal as peanut cultivation remains overwhelmingly reliant on rainfall for water. The result, as one study has shown, is that levels of poverty in peanut growing regions remain very closely correlated with rainfall levels

With electric motorcycles, African cities hope to clear the air and empower women In Uganda and Kenya, women are joining the male-dominated motorcycle taxi industry through UNEP-backed electric bike projects. The initiative is helping cut air pollution, reduce emissions, and create new economic opportunities linking clean mobility with gender equality https://www.un.org/en/climatechange/electric-motorcycles-african-cities-hope-clear-air-empower-women #wom #Kenya #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #IrreversibleOverheating #UpheavalClimate #pollution #environment #climate
A study published Monday in the journal Nature Microbiology found Prochlorococcus populations could shrink by as much as half in tropical oceans over the next 75 years if surface waters exceed about 82 degrees Fahrenheit (27.8 Celsius). Many tropical and subtropical sea surface temperatures are already trending above average and are projected to regularly surpass 86 degrees Fahrenheit (30 Celsius) over that same period https://www.cp24.com/news/world/2025/09/08/warming-seas-threaten-key-phytoplankton-species-that-fuels-the-food-web-study-finds/ #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #Climate
