Michael Mann: Yes, we can still stop the worst effects of climate change. Here's why.

Scientists have not failed to communicate climate risks; misinformation from polluters complicates public understanding, and there are still pathways to avert catastrophic climate change.

Climate change is intensifying, extreme downpours in Spain, scientists say

Climate change has intensified rainfall in Spain by 12% and doubled the likelihood of extreme storms.
The recent floods in Spain caused significant fatalities and highlighted the growing risks of climate change.

Living on Earth: Chaos in the Climate System

Climate change significantly increases rainfall and the likelihood of catastrophic flooding worldwide.

Humanity Is Slowing Down Earth

Climate change is altering Earth's fundamental properties, affecting its rotational speed and other characteristics.

Last Sunday was Earth's hottest day in all recorded history, European climate agency says

Human activity significantly contributes to record-breaking global temperatures, with projections for future records being continually surpassed.

Record-breaking heat: Monday was world's hottest day

Global average temperature on Monday surpassed Sunday's record, marking the hottest day ever, highlighting the intensifying effects of climate change.

New Models Could Predict Climate Change Effects with Unprecedented Detail

Scientists are developing a network of global supercomputing centers called Earth Visualization Engines (EVE) to run climate models and predict local climate impacts with higher resolution.
The EVE centers would use machine-learning algorithms and supercomputers to analyze the data and help municipalities mitigate climate disasters.
The proposal for the EVE network will be presented at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in November.
