  • Carbon farming in Mediterranean soil (news) — The article explains how carbon farming practices such as agroforestry, reduced ploughing, and organic soil cover can increase soil organic carbon storage, with particular potential in Mediterranean…
  • [cited] Costa Rica payments for ecosystem services (news) — Costa Rica halted deforestation and raised its forest cover from a 1980s low of 21% to 57%, while protecting 25% of its land. The commentary credits 1990s environmental legislation and the Payment…
  • Japan blue carbon restoration and credits (news) — Japan is turning to 'blue carbon,' the carbon stored by coastal ecosystems such as seagrass, seaweed, and mangroves, to both cut emissions and restore degraded coastlines. The Japan Blue Economy…
  • Agrivoltaic system economic profitability (news) — Researchers from Sweden and Italy used Monte Carlo simulations to model the profitability and cost-effectiveness of one-axis, vertical, and elevated agrivoltaic systems across European crop rotations…
  • Annual climate science research assessment (news) — The annual 'Ten New Insights in Climate Science' assessment, compiled by Future Earth, the Earth League and the World Climate Research Programme, draws on satellite data and peer-reviewed research…
  • Young secondary forest carbon removal (study) — This Nature Climate Change study generates global growth curves for aboveground live biomass in secondary forests at roughly 1-km² resolution. It finds that young secondary forests, aged about 20 to…
  • Copernicus Ocean State Report ocean changes (study) — The 10th Copernicus Ocean State Report, published with a summary and a ten-year anniversary supplement, documents how the ocean has changed over the past decade, with the most recent years standing…
  • Ocean acidification and kelp physiology (study) (needs verification) — A mesocosm experiment on juvenile Laminaria digitata kelp tested ocean warming (+3°C) and elevated CO2 (1000 ppm), alone and combined. Elevated CO2 increased growth only in the absence of warming,…
  • Hurricane economic disruption and recovery (study) (needs verification) — Using daily transaction data from 7,987 US ZIP codes exposed to 21 Atlantic hurricanes between 2017 and 2024, the study finds that hurricanes cause economic losses equivalent to about two days of…
  • Ecological restoration project assessment in Mexico (study) (needs verification) — A survey-based assessment of 75 terrestrial and wetland restoration projects in Mexico examined the interventions used, ecological and socio-economic results, and monitoring practices. Most projects…
  • Curated individual climate action resources (tool) — This curated GitHub list collects resources for reducing environmental impact across categories such as carbon reduction, transportation, food, finance, waste, and politics. Its Carbon Reduction…
