An ambitious effort to understand the Earth’s climate over the past 485 million years has revealed a history of wild shifts .

Earth's average land and ocean surface temperature in 2024 was 2.32°F (1.29°C) above the 20th-century average—the highest global temperature among all years in NOAA's 1850–2024 climate record.

Scientists warn efforts to limit the long-term temperature rise to 1.5°C will fail as data confirms 2024 was the hottest year ...

When we discuss climate change today ... If liquid water and elevated crust existed so early in Earth’s history, was life present as well? There is carbon isotope evidence for life in the ...

Scientists have largely attributed this temperature rise to the increase of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide and methane, in Earth's atmosphere since the Industrial Revolution.

The announcements by several major climate observation organizations, including Copernicus, NOAA, NASA and Berkeley Earth, ...

The temperature of the Earth depends on many factors including the concentration of greenhouse gases such as water vapour, methane and carbon dioxide. The Earth also radiates lower frequency ...
