On the eve of National Puppy Day, we have some good news: You can enlist Fido in the fight against climate change.

(This blog was co-authored by EDF Climate Scientist Fiona Lo) Washington D.C.’s famous cherry blossoms are once again blooming earlier than expected.   In fact, this year’s peak bloom occurred two and a half weeks earlier than the average over the past 100 years, due to near-record warm temperatures in March.  This ranks as the second […]

While the plastic crisis can feel overwhelming, the U.S. has the power to change its practices.

A new peer-reviewed study finds that four nature-based climate solutions have robust scientific foundations, while others need urgent additional research before their role as a climate solution is understood.

This post is authored by Mark Moroge, Vice President of Natural Climate Solutions at Environmental Defense Fund. We know that nature-based climate solutions are among our greatest assets when it comes to tackling climate change. Conserving, restoring and improving the management of nature – alongside reductions in new fossil fuel use – can provide at […]

The world needs nature-based climate solutions (NbCS). These approaches use conservation, restoration, and management of natural and agricultural systems to retain existing, and sequester additional, carbon while reducing emissions of CO2 and other greenhouse gases. NbCS have been suggested to meet 20-30% of the world’s climate goals. Correspondingly, nature-based actions are included in the national […]

EPA announced the finalization of new standards that will significantly cut the dangerous tailpipe pollution produced by passenger vehicles. This is a huge win for the climate and our kids.

By Andrew Baxter “Very soon nobody is going to be able to hide from methane leakage,” Chevron CEO Mike Wirth said back in 2019 . Now, the convergence of new satellites, new climate commitments and new market demands means that day is here. Some companies have been girding for it; others are lagging. Either way, […]
