Nature restoration, water protection and boosting renewables are likely to remain among the political priorities of the EU's next institutional cycle, according to a leaked Strategic Agenda, seen by Euronews, a high-level EU guiding policy document set to be agreed during a summit of EU leaders starting today (27 June) in Brussels. Previous leaks of the EU leaders’ guiding policy document suggested references to climate action had been all but erased, pointing to a U-turn to the European Green Deal’s main goals, but the latest draft document seen by Euronews pledges to “continue protecting nat...

German manufacturers need to clarify any use of the ambiguous term "climate neutral" when advertising their products, a German court ruled on Thursday. The case centres on an advert by liquorice and fruit gum manufacturer Katjes that used the disputed term to advertise in a trade journal. The manufacturing process itself is not emission-free, but the company supports climate protection projects via an environmental consultant to compensate for this. The Frankfurt office for the prevention of unfair competition had filed a lawsuit because it regarded the advert to be misleading. Key information...

A recent study published in The Journal of Social Psychology has uncovered a significant link between understanding of politics and belief in climate change conspiracies. Researchers found that individuals with a lower political knowledge are more likely to have a stronger sense of national pride, which further encouraged the endorsement of conspiracy theories denying climate change. Climate change has been a hot topic for decades, with scientific evidence from many independent sources supporting the idea that carbon dioxide emissions from human activities are the main driver behind the rising...

By Linda GIVETASH Paris (AFP) - Alors que des régions d'Amérique du nord et de l'Europe sont déjà confrontées aux flammes en ce début d'été, le monde n'est pas préparé à faire face à des incendies rendus toujours plus féroces par le changement climatique, mettent en garde des experts. Des paysages de cendres sont déjà apparus cette année dans le sillage des vagues de chaleur au Canada, aux Etats-Unis, en Grèce ou en Turquie. Si des moyens nouveaux ont été alloués dernièrement à la lutte contre les incendies, il n'en va pas de même pour l'anticipation de telles catastrophes, jugent les experts....

Tiny particles emitted by planes are putting millions of people across Europe at risk of serious health conditions, a study has found. Some 52 million people near the 32 busiest airports in Europe are being exposed to “ultrafine particles” (UFPs) from aviation, according to findings from the study, released on Tuesday. UFPs are below the size of 100 nanometres in diameter – approximately 1,000 times smaller than a human hair – and can penetrate deeply into the human body, having been found in the blood, brain and even placentas. Exposure to UFPs can be linked to the development of serious and ...

Cloud modifying techniques used to cool the climate in California could eventually push heatwaves towards Europe, according to a new study. If global warming reaches 2C above pre-industrial by 2050, cloud modification could majorly warm almost all of Europe except the Iberian Peninsula. The research showed the biggest increases in Scandinavia, Central Europe and Eastern Europe. The study’s authors say their findings are concerning because there are next to no regulations in place for this kind of local climate modification and the consequences could be hard to predict. “Our study provides the ...

Paris (AFP) - Le nombre et l'intensité des feux de forêt extrêmes, les plus destructeurs et les plus polluants, ont plus que doublé dans le monde depuis 20 ans, en raison du réchauffement climatique dû à l'activité humaine, selon une nouvelle étude publiée lundi. À l'aide de données satellites, les chercheurs ont étudié près de 3.000 incendies de forêt ayant une énorme "puissance radiative" - la quantité d'énergie émise par rayonnement - entre 2003 et 2023 et ont constaté que leur fréquence avait été multipliée par 2,2 au cours de cette période. Ce sont les forêts tempérées de conifères, notam...
