Climate Science Weekly — 2026-10-07

The European Union has announced plans to push for a strict "mitigation package" at the upcoming COP31 summit, responding to UN warnings that global temperatures will breach the 1.5°C target. Simultaneously, significant scientific scrutiny has led to the withdrawal of a major research paper claiming climate change induces longer droughts, citing calculation errors. Meanwhile, new data confirms that global warming has accelerated to roughly 0.35°C per decade in the last ten years, significantly faster than previous decades.

Global warming has accelerated sharply, with the planet warming at roughly 0.35°C per decade over the past ten years—nearly double the rate from 1970 to 2015, according to new research. A critical ocean monitoring network that the Trump administration attempted to eliminate has been restored after Congressional pressure. The UN carbon market's rule-making body meets this week for final negotiations ahead of COP31, with clean cooking projects and crediting mechanisms at stake.

Climate Science Weekly — 2026-09-29

This week's standout development is a new "Carbon Impacts Tracer" tool that directly links carbon emissions to environmental and economic damage. Separately, research suggests falling atmospheric dust over 20 years may help explain why the planet has been warming faster than expected. Policy attention is pivoting toward COP31 implementation planning.

Climate Science Weekly — 2026-09-27

This week's developments center on ocean data collection and climate overshoot: an uncrewed, sun-and-wind-powered saildrone has begun a 22,000km journey around Antarctica to measure how oceans absorb emissions. A peer-reviewed study reinforces the role of wild animals — from dugongs to tigers — as active agents in climate regulation. New research warns that temporarily crossing global warming targets could leave lasting changes in Earth's oceans and permafrost even after temperatures fall.

Climate Science Weekly — 2026-09-25

This week's research highlights the long shadow of past emissions: studies show that climate pollution already released by the world's top emitters will keep the planet warmer for decades, and that Earth's climate has shifted through distinct "mega-climate" states over 539 million years with extinctions spiking near transitions. Politically, the UN's 2026 Climate Summit opened with leaders acknowledging that overshoot is now "inevitable," while the EPA formally moved to partially repeal US power plant carbon rules.

This week's headline development is the strengthening of a "Godzilla-level" El Niño that has already broken temperature records months before its expected peak. Meanwhile, a sharply contested debate has erupted over attribution methods used to link the Himalayan disaster to climate change. Climate Week NYC celebrations also produced The Independent's 2026 Climate 100 list of leading environmentalists.

Recent research highlights a sharp acceleration in global warming rates, with the planet warming at 0.35°C per decade over the last ten years compared to previous decades. Concurrently, atmospheric water vapour levels have hit record highs due to the combination of El Niño and global heating, while new studies link extreme weather events like the Nepal-Tibet floods to climate instability.

Climate Science Weekly — 2026-09-18

Recent scientific analysis indicates that climate change likely destabilized a massive glacier in the Nepal-Tibet region, contributing to devastating floods, while a new UN report confirms the world will breach the 1.5°C warming threshold before the decade ends. Additionally, the European Commission has released new insights into international energy cooperation as global clean energy transitions accelerate.
