The world's second largest Banyan tree in Mahabubnagar district of India’s Telangana which is almost dying, is on ‘saline drip’ now as part of the rejuvenation.

Scientists in developing nations plan to step up research into dimming sunshine to curb climate change, hoping to judge if a man-made chemical sunshade would be less risky than a harmful rise in global temperatures.

Sea levels will rise between 0.7 and 1.2 meters (27-47 inches) in the next two centuries even if governments end the fossil fuel era as promised under the Paris climate agreement, scientists say.

The risk of extreme weather such as heat waves, floods and drought will rise significantly even if the commitments in the 2015 Paris climate accord are met, a study warns.

Sea level rise is accelerating and could reach 26 inches (66 centimeters) by century's end, in line with United Nations estimates and enough to cause significant problems for coastal cities, a study says.

Before man-made climate change kicked in -- and well before “Day Zero” in Cape Town, where taps may run dry in early May -- the global water crisis was upon us. Freshwater resources were already badly stressed before heat-trapping carbon emissions from fossil fuels began to warm Earth’s surface and affect rainfall.

President Donald Trump says that the United States could "conceivably" return to the Paris climate accord, although he stopped short of signalling any move in that direction.

Last year was the second hottest worldwide on record, just behind a sweltering 2016, with signs of climate change ranging from wildfires to a thaw of Arctic ice, a European Union monitoring centre says.

2017 has been the year of Climate Change impacts and its horrors making to the news on a daily basis. From hurricanes to wildfires, the previous year was a constant reminder that the planet is in the eye of the great climate change storm.

Beijing may have turned a corner in its battle against the city’s notorious smog and environmental consultants say the Chinese government deserves much of the credit for introducing tough anti-pollution measures.

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina leaves Dhaka for Paris on a three-day official visit to attend ‘One Planet Summit’.

Australia's Great Barrier Reef is in peril from climate change and widespread bleaching, but scientists say a small portion may be resilient enough to keep much of the rest alive.

Carbon dioxide emissions are set to rise this year after a three-year pause, scientists say at UN climate talks, warning that "time is running out", even as White House officials use the occasion to champion the fossil fuels that drive global warming.

Climate change imperils one in four natural World Heritage sites, including coral reefs, glaciers, and wetlands -- nearly double the number from just three years ago, a report says.

The world must sharply draw down greenhouse gas emissions and suck billions of tonnes of carbon dioxide from the air if today's youth are to be spared climate cataclysm, a top scientist warns.

2017 is on track to be the hottest year on record except for two warmed by El Nino phenomena, the UN's World Meteorological Organization says.

The biggest problem for sustainable development in Bangladesh now is climate change, Water Resources Minister Anisul Islam Mahmud says.

Extreme weather caused some $129 billion (111 billion euros) in economic losses last year, says a report that warned the bill will keep climbing as climate change boosts droughts, storms and floods.

Sydney and Melbourne could regularly face 50 degree Celsius (122F) days within 25 years even if Australia meets its Paris global warming targets, a new study warns.

Senior disaster management officials from seven countries of South and South East Asia, including Bangladesh, India and Myanmar, are to gather here to conduct a joint exercise to test their readiness for a united response to major natural disasters in a region prone to cyclones, flood, drought and earthquake.
