The costly effects of climate change may dent more than our wallets by the 2030s. Researchers found that Earth’s rotation is speeding up ever so slightly due to melting ice caps, which could force ...

Melting ice at the poles due to climate change may impact the Earth's spin, altering our global clock. According to a new paper in the journal Nature, the "leap second" due to be added to Coordinated ...

A team of climate researchers and engineers is working together with local Arctic communities to implement bold new strategies to address melting sea ice. "The dramatic changes in the Arctic warrant ...

Since 1979, Arctic ice has shrunk by 1.35 million square miles, a new JPL study found ice loss in Greenland is far worse than previously thought and Antarctic ice is now at the lowest level since ...

Add to the long list of global warming concerns that melting ice caps could trigger more volcanic eruptions. Worse, researchers said Monday at a scientific conference in Prague, the increasing ...

Rising temperatures of the world's oceans threaten to accelerate the melting and splintering of glaciers—thereby potentially increasing the number of icebergs and, with it, the need to better ...

This episode is from WHRO’s Spotlight Earth series. Watch this video to explore climate change. In this Spotlight Earth episode, you will explore the real-world impacts of climate change, from melting ...
