Ocean temperatures hit a record high in 2025, with ocean heat content rising by about 23 zettajoules — roughly 210 times humanity’s annual electricity use.

Because oceans absorb around 90% of excess heat from greenhouse gases, the increase is a stark signal of global warming, driving sea-level rise and extreme weather.

Scientists sound alarm over 'cascading crisis' unfolding in mountains: 'There will inevitably be less...'

The rapid melting of glaciers in Central and West Asia is creating a burgeoning crisis for 340 million people who rely on the rivers of ice for drinking water and food, as well as to support their livelihoods

What’s behind these changes and why is Canadian progress on tackling climate change so slow? Put simply, it’s because climate action threatens the profits of the fossil-fuel industry, and they’ve spent the past 50 years doing everything they can to prevent it
