Earth Can Sustain Only 2.5 Billion People, Scientists Say. We Already Have 8.3 Billion.
Something broke in the 1960s. For centuries, human civilization had operated on a simple, self-reinforcing logic. More people produced more ideas, more innovation, and more capacity to feed and shelter a growing species. Each generation inherited a world better equipped to support the next. But somewhere around the time the Beatles took the stage and…
NASA Finds Its Own Spacecraft Debris on Mars and Scientists Are Confused
It began as a routine mission, the kind that scientists have carefully refined over decades of Mars exploration.

A Photographer Spent Years Filming Glaciers And The Results Are Alarming

Over the past few decades, photographers, scientists, and filmmakers have worked together to document these environmental changes…
Scientists Warn Planet Could Become Uninhabitable as Climate Tipping Points Near
For decades, climate scientists have warned that the planet’s warming trend could eventually push Earth’s natural systems beyond their limits. Those warnings are becoming increasingly urgent. New research suggests that several of the planet’s most important environmental systems may be approaching dangerous tipping points that could permanently alter the global climate. If these thresholds are…
A Country Disappearing Beneath Rising Oceans
On a scattering of coral atolls in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, life still unfolds in familiar rhythms. Children walk to school along narrow roads edged by palm trees. Fishing boats leave shallow lagoons at dawn. Church services fill the humid air with song on Sundays. From a distance, Tuvalu looks like a postcard.…
