The UNEP’s latest report warns that global temperatures could temporarily cross the 1.5-degree Celsius threshold within years. UNEP India head Balakrishna Pisupati said some climate impacts, including biodiversity loss, glacier retreat and sea-level rise, could become permanent despite technological progress

The UN says the world will soon breach the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C warming limit, requiring a strategy to contain temperature rise before gradually cooling it. Experts warn of decades of climate disasters, food and water shortages, ecosystem losses and irreversible tipping points

The UK has recorded its hottest summer since records began in 1884, with the June-August mean temperature reaching 16.5°C. The Met Office said climate change made such extreme warmth around 130 times more likely, warning that summers will become hotter and drier

Climate change exposes 145 million Indian children to at least one additional month of heat stress annually, a study has found. Researchers warned that the figure could rise to 169 million under 2 degrees Celsius of global warming

The World Meteorological Organization warns that rapidly strengthening El Nino conditions will intensify global heatwaves, droughts, and extreme weather. In India, the climate phenomenon has already triggered a severe June rainfall deficit, with below-normal monsoon rains expected through July

Scorching heat across Europe is a stark reminder of the accelerating climate crisis and the repeated failure of nations to honour their commitments to cut greenhouse gas emissions

A World Meteorological Organisation report forecasts that global temperatures will remain near record highs between 2026 and 2030, with a high chance of temporarily exceeding 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. It warns of increasing risks from climate change and stronger El Niño effects

Deadly heatwaves are exposing the growing cost of climate change, with workers paying the highest price as rising temperatures push India towards a dangerous future

Without clear measures of livelihoods protected, climate finance will stay carbon-focused, even after COP30

New NASA-led research reveals that global warming is altering wind patterns and shrinking Earth's reflective cloud zones. This change allows more sunlight to reach the surface, amplifying warming in a feedback loop where rising temperatures further disrupt cloud formations

Merely celebrating Environment Day on June 5 is not enough; what is truly needed is a commitment to systemic change while adopting sustainable practices

As warming temperatures melt glaciers, the ice loss has repercussions for climate and water cycles. This in turn has significant impact on landscapes, rivers, ecosystems people and economies

Warmer and drier conditions have been prevailing in recent winters, including those of 2021, 2023, 2024 and 2025, which are driving a reduced snow cover, higher snow lines and increased forest fires, says expert
