How can politics stop global warming? Can global warming be stabilized by politics? Are political decisions the main reason for global warming? What are politicians doing to prevent global warming, and is it enough? What is the political issue of global warming? What is the role of politics i...
Earth is getting slightly warmer year by year. It's not really warming up noticeably—at least not in the short term. In fact, since 1900, the whole planet has warmed up only by around 1.1 degrees Celsius.[1]By the end of the 21st century, however, global warming is likely to...
Although the rapid global warming seen in observations over the past 150 years does show nearly global coherence6, the spatiotemporal coherence of climate epochs earlier in the Common Era has yet to be robustly tested. Here we use global palaeoclimate reconstructions for the past 2,000 years, ...

In this study, we attempt to quantify the potential impacts of two global warming levels (i.e., 1.5 °C and 2.0 °C) on extreme temperature indices across China. The CMIP6 dataset is first evaluated against the CN05.1 observation for the historical period of 1995–2014. Then, future...
Global warming has become a topic of worldwide concern, and it is taken for granted that human activities are the major contributor to climate change. But a new study has discovered an unexpected contributor to climate change. It is the earthworms. Unlike their size, the impact of these tiny...
