About 90,000 people living near larger chemical plants face an unacceptable risk of developing cancer, the EPA says.

New rules adopted last year could’ve cut that number to 3,000 residents — a drop of 97%.

But Trump has halted those efforts.

From 2040 onwards the average year for marine ecosystems is likely to be more extreme than the worst years experienced up until 2015, researchers say

marine species were already shifting towards the poles, seeking out cooler waters at an average of 59km per decade at current rates of warming. Some species were moving faster, such as kingfish in eastern Australia, which were shifting up to 102km every 10 years

With planning on environmental projects at a standstill since 2023, France's political leaders are only reinforcing the idea that they are unable to think long-term, even when it comes to such crucial issues as climate change & biodiversity collapse
