Eliminating the Endangerment Finding remains a heavy lift, and there is complicated legal terrain. But the economics and the science are on our side. Let’s also not forget that the complexion of the U.S. Supreme Court has...

After nearly two decades of “Doughnut” development, the grand insight remains: we must stop growing, stop consuming, and start obeying the moral geometry of academics who draw circles in PowerPoint...

Anything is possible when you use a flawed climate model to generate craptastic, er, speculative output.

The piece frames the research they reference as a legal turning point, arguing that oil producers could now face liability for specific extreme weather events.

Analyzing the historical observation of tropical cyclones, the authors found that during the past few decades, the chances for tropical cyclone cluster decreased in the Northwestern Pacific basin, while increased in North...

The study’s inclusion of Uzbekistan’s faulty GDP figures skewed its results and cast doubt on its conclusion that global GDP could be roughly 62% lower by 2100 due to climate change than it otherwise would be, according...
