As a planet, we still have the power to limit the occurrence and impact of future extreme weather through reductions in emissions and achieving net zero as quickly as possible:

An innovative @UniMelb multimedia project, which harnesses the latest visual effects technology to offer new insights into the ferocity of bushfires, will open to the public next week:

This year's Victorian Congress in Castlemaine will feature a dynamic program that delves into critical issues facing Australia and beyond. The theme of “Building women’s empowerment in the climate crisis”, offers a platform for collaboration and action:

There’s never been a more important time to learn from the regions and leaders driving the transition to net zero. This event will explore the transition in five of Australia’s key coal regions, as captured in a new book, Regional Energy Transitions.

President Trump appears to be aiming for a more insular America. @UniMelb experts @BekMarkeyTowler & @ArthurWyns explore how a lack of US participation affects global efforts to combat health crises and climate change – and if there's a glimmer of hope.

Given Trump’s climate denialism, it’s actually better that the US absent itself from international climate talks while he is in power. That way, the rest of the world can get on with the job without Trump’s corrosive influence, writes @BekMarkeyTowler.

Climate change is fueling more intense and frequent destructive fires. Protecting people and the environment requires strategic planning, proactive and innovative management, and critically, understanding the trade-offs between values.

The year 2024 was the world’s warmest on record globally, and the first in which global temperatures exceeded 1.5°C above its pre-industrial levels. The need for humanity to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions has never been more urgent: @AndrewKingClim.

Despite the deluge of bleak environmental news, here are some examples of the positive climate progress we made this year:

The Victorian Government has released Victoria’s Climate Science Report 2024. It incorporates the latest climate projections for Victoria, and the science of climate hazards, including floods, heatwaves, drought, bushfire, and sea-level rise:

The internet now makes up around 7.4 per cent of global emissions – with half of that made up of bots. But it’s possible to track the perpetrators of bot-related energy waste, writes experts from @networkedcities.

Negotiations were contentious at @COP29_AZ and seemingly obscure. @UniMelb experts who were on the ground provided their insights on what moved global climate policy forward, what held it back, and where that leaves our climate goals moving forward.
