Ever wonder what an internet climate science troll is like in person? Here's your chance to find out.

Ocean circulation is one of the big mysteries in our quest to predict future climate changes. We know that oceans drive carbon cycles and weather, but how quickly? And in what ways? A massive new study has provided new answers.

People talk a lot these days about rising seas. They talk figures in feet and inches. They make maps, and forecast which stretches of America's coastline will be inundated in 25, 50, or 100 years. But we're visual creatures, and visual creatures want to know: what might this projected sea level rise actually look like?

Evidence suggests that the climate is warming, but it's hard to get a concrete idea of what the planet will be like when Earth is a few hotter warmer everywhere. Now a group of scientists have found a slice of our sultry future in an unexpected place: the heat islands of southern US city Raleigh, North Carolina.…

April is Earth month. To drum up public interest in both understanding and sustaining the planet, NASA has launched a great interactive image gallery that explores "Earth Science Highlights" in the form of stunning photographs and visualizations.

Last year, a psychology researcher named Stephan Lewandowsky published an article based on an internet survey of climate change deniers. In it, he argued that his evidence strongly suggested that people who don't believe in climate change also believe NASA faked the Moon landing, and that the US government created…

Temperatures in the north are starting to resemble those much further south. A new study suggests it's time to get ready for the arctic to bloom.

It's global warming, stupid. And how. In an extensive study published in today's issue of Science, researchers report that today's global temperatures are warmer than any point in at least the last 4,000 years, and show no signs of declining: analyses of weather patterns since the end of the last Ice Age presage that…

Paul Kirshen, co-author of an exhaustive new report on what sea-level rise could mean for Boston, talks to The Atlantic about the city's watery future. The study was released yesterday by The Boston Harbor Association, in conjunction with a series of storm readiness initiatives from the office of Boston mayor Thomas…

One of the arguments that environmentalists use against factory farming and burning fossil fuels is that these activities are "unnatural" or that they "go against nature." But what exactly is this "nature," and who gets to define it? The answer is that nature actually comes from culture.
