The Senate confirmed Trump's pick Steve Pearce to lead the Bureau of Land Management, overseeing 250 million acres of public lands. The appointment signals accelerated plans for expanded mining and drilling while reversing conservation initiatives.
Wildlife
A ranger in eastern DRC survived an attack and is advocating for better working conditions in national parks threatened by armed groups and poaching. Rangers in Virunga and Kahuzi-Biega face chronic violence and hundreds have died protecting these critical wildlife habitats.
Energy
Over 100 UK datacentres plan to burn gas for electricity due to National Grid connection delays, potentially undermining climate targets. Gas connection requests total more than 15 terawatt hours annually.
Energy
Solar power installation is growing faster than any other power source globally and in the US. The industry faces challenges despite its rapid expansion.
Wildlife
The Asiatic cheetah, the world's rarest big cat, faces increased extinction risk as conflict in Iran disrupts conservation efforts. The subspecies is now confined to just 16% of its former range with critically low population numbers.
Wildlife
Hong Kong and Singapore imported over 1 million live wild birds from 2006-2020, with nearly two-thirds sourced from Africa. The trade poses threats to wild populations and disease spread risks.
Climate
Latin America and the Caribbean are experiencing severe climate impacts including droughts, floods, and extreme temperatures. A WMO report highlights that Mexico and the region face increasingly frequent extreme weather events as part of the new climate reality.
Policy
The US and Iran are the only major global emitters without net-zero targets, according to a factcheck disputing claims that the UK is an outlier. This analysis highlights the international divide on climate commitments among world's largest polluters.
Policy
The Trump administration plans to repeal Biden-era EPA limits on four PFAS forever chemicals in drinking water and delay standards for two others. The proposed rules must undergo an approval process and will likely face legal challenges.
Policy
Trump administration cuts to weather data programming threaten to reduce the reliability of federal weather forecasts during hurricane season and heat events. NOAA's AI-powered forecast models rely on extensive historical data to improve prediction accuracy and speed.
Opinion
Opinion piece arguing that fossil fuel dependence creates geopolitical conflicts and energy insecurity, using Ukraine's attacks on energy infrastructure as a case study for why renewable energy is essential.
Wildlife
Rising demand for exotic pets is driving gibbon species toward extinction, with poachers killing mothers to capture infants for the illegal pet trade. Wildlife sanctuaries like Thailand's Omkoi are rescuing orphaned gibbons, including a young infant named Chokdee.
EV
China's EV market share reached record levels in April, with plug-in vehicles surpassing 60% of sales. High gas prices and new model availability drove growth after the end of purchase tax exemptions.
Energy
Dr Andrew Forrest of Fortescue Metals argues that Australia's 18 largest miners receive unnecessary diesel subsidies worth billions annually and should transition to renewables. The company is pushing for real zero emissions as major miners demonstrate the viability of renewable energy adoption.
Energy
Scientists at the National Laboratory of the Rockies developed a silicon semiconductor-catalyst system that captures sunlight energy to drive chemical reactions for fuel production. The breakthrough mimics how plants and algae naturally convert sunlight into fuel.
Energy
EV adoption reduces emissions, but requires decarbonized electrical grids to achieve full environmental benefits. Clean grids paired with EV adoption accelerate overall emission reductions.
Energy
Japanese scientists achieved a world record 25.14% efficiency for perovskite-CIGS tandem solar cells, certified by AIST. This breakthrough represents significant progress in next-generation solar technology.
Policy
Organized crime has become a major obstacle to Amazon protection, with criminal groups expanding control over vast territories and undermining efforts to combat deforestation, illegal mining, and drug trafficking.
Ocean
The Indian Ocean's major tuna fishery faces pressure from overfishing by foreign industrial fleets and expanding coastal nation operations. Scientists warn that resource management disputes are intensifying as fish stocks decline across dozens of nations dependent on the fishery.
Climate
Global sand mining extracts 50 billion metric tons annually, far exceeding natural replenishment rates according to a UNEP report. The unsustainable extraction from landscapes, rivers, and coastal zones poses significant environmental risks.
Wildlife
The U.S. issued over 300 elephant trophy import permits in 2025, the highest number under Trump's administration, potentially resulting in 300+ elephant deaths despite Trump's previous criticism of trophy hunting.
