Browsing: Environment & Climate
Environment & Climate covers climate science, energy, policy, and the economic consequences of physical and transition risk.
We report on emissions, energy systems, extreme weather, adaptation, and climate finance — grounding coverage in data, peer-reviewed research, and official assessments. Where scientific uncertainty exists, it is stated clearly.
In addition to news briefings, this section includes explainers on net-zero targets, carbon markets, attribution science, and energy transition pathways. We examine how climate decisions affect costs, resilience, and inequality across regions and industries.
Our approach connects events to systems: how policies, markets, and infrastructure choices shape environmental outcomes over time. Coverage avoids alarmism and minimisation alike, focusing instead on evidence, incentives, and measurable impact.
