Historical housing disparities linked with dangerous climate impacts
Extreme heat kills more people in the United States than any other type of hazardous weather and will likely become even deadlier due to climate change. However, extreme heat does not affect all people equally. Surface temperatures in different neighborhoods…

Global warming is the kindling that caused extensive wildfire
In November of last year, the wildfire that started in California, U.S.A burned areas that amount about the size of Seoul and destructed over 500 buildings for two weeks. In 2018, six fires started simultaneously in southern California and spread…
Kerry Emanuel wins the Frontiers of Knowledge Award in Climate Change
MIT professor is recognized by the BBVA Foundation for detecting and predicting the intensification of hurricanes as a consequence of global warming
Sea-ice-free Arctic makes permafrost vulnerable to thawing
Permafrost is ground that remains frozen throughout the year; it covers nearly a quarter of Northern Hemisphere land. The frozen state of permafrost enables it to store large amounts of carbon; about twice as much as in the atmosphere. The…
