With the world set to blow past 1.5°C of warming, researchers are increasingly studying possible methods of cooling the planet by modifying the atmosphere or the oceans. More geoengineering research ...

There's nothing quite like going for a walk on a bright, spring day. But basking in the sunshine could soon be a thing of the past. That's because it has emerged that experts are planning on dimming ...

Sounds like a bright idea. Scientists have received approval to soon test whether “dimming” the light from the sun will combat global warming — a strategy some critics have recently described as ...

Critics say the investment in climate-cooling research, like refreezing sea ice and brightening clouds, distracts from the need to cut planet-warming emissions. As temperatures fall and sunlight wanes ...

Tropical forests exchange more CO2 with the atmosphere than any other terrestrial biome, meaning that even a relatively small shift in the balance of carbon uptake and release there could have a big ...

American forests are important sources of carbon sequestration, storing millions of tons of carbon dioxide each year. However, a unique experiment led by Peter Reich, University of Michigan professor ...

CLIMATEWIRE | As temperatures fall and sunlight wanes this winter, scientists will gather in the Canadian Arctic with drills and pumps in tow. Their mission: to refreeze the region’s melting sea ice.
