Even the wildest parts of the Amazon untouched by humanity are being impacted by anthropogenic climate change, according to new research.

Hotter, drier conditions over the past four decades are decreasing the rainforest birds' body size while increasing their wingspans, a study published in the journal Science Advances have said.

Climate change, or even better the climate crisis, as the prime minister describes it, is undoubtedly here, at our doorstep. One need no further eyewitness accounts or scientific affirmations to understand that.

The 2021 Nobel Prize for physics has been shared between scientists working on models to predict global warming and the interplay of planetary systems.

One half of the prize is split between Syukuro Manabe and Klaus Hasselmann for their work in the 'physical modelling of Earth's climate, quantifying variability and reliably predicting global warming.'

As Turkey has been under the deep effects of drought due to global warming and misuse of existent water sources, a new climate report submitted to the Turkish Parliament emphasizes that the situation might worsen over time.

More evidence show that climate change was not the only reason for the fires in Greece

The National Meteorological Administration (ANM) has issued a Code Orange alert of persistent heat wave and particularly severe thermal discomfort, valid, on Monday, in 16 counties and the municipality of Bucharest, and a Code Yellow warning, valid in eight counties.

A record-breaking heat wave that hit the western United States and Canada at the end of June would have been "virtually impossible" without human-caused climate change, according to an analysis by a group of leading climate scientists.

"Europe's north will struggle with floods and fires, even with warming at the lowest end of expectations while the south will be hammered by drought, urban heat and agricultural decline, driving a wedge into one of the European Union's biggest political fault lines", portal Politico claims.

Climatologists have been warning about these extremes for months due to climate change, but the question also arises as to whether all these extremes are common for June.

Greece will be hit by a low pressure system, named Medea by the Athens Astronomical Observatory, which is expected to bring snowfall, even at low altitudes, from the central region of Thessaly southward.
