Climate change impacts are hitting the Caribbean hardest 🌊

The WorldPop FCDO Caribbean project delivered high-resolution population data to support better planning, stronger census systems, and more resilient communities.

Because understanding where people live is critical for protecting lives.

Record heat 🔥 has caused an early snowmelt in the West, setting the stage for a potentially brutal fire season.

🔥 Mamas, it’s time to advocate for clean air filters in schools
and resilient local infrastructure.

Plant Roots Navigate Temperature's Whims Via Internal 'Thermostat'

Scientists found plant roots have an internal thermostat using ARF proteins and auxin to adapt to changing temperatures, helping crops grow better in a changing climate.

Plant roots can now sense and adapt to temperature changes thanks to a newly discovered internal 'thermostat'. This is important for growing crops in unpredictable weather.

🌿 Can crops help fight climate change?
The EU-funded @Crop4Clima project is developing rapeseed that absorbs up to 60 % more CO2 and thrives under drought. A glimpse of climate-smart farming.

Beavers Save a Drying Rainforest

A rainforest hit Level 5 drought. Twice.

Not a $100M pipeline. A 40-pound rodent.

Bridge Creek, OR: +168% steelhead from willow & mud.
Bow Creek, ID: wildfire stopped at the beaver dam.
