How plate tectonics, mountains and deep-sea sediments have maintained Earth's 'Goldilocks' climate

Prompt and accurate information is vital in a pandemic – the climate and biodiversity crises demand the same urgency

Energy is the double-edged sword at the root of the climate crisis. Cheap energy has improved lives and underpinned massive economic growth. But because most of it comes from burning hydrocarbon fuels, we’re now left with a legacy of high atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) and an emissions-intensive economy.
