Welcome to the Climate Change News pages of Graeme Elliott


The Guardian newspaper does not paywall their stuff and thus stands out in their climate reporting, and so it is heavily represented here.
It has daily coverage of some aspects of climate, weather or environmental crises,
with a strong UK and Australian bent, of course, but lots of global coverage.
What is happening in their backyard matters, so we can learn from the failures of the UK, EU, US and Oz.
Stories are sorted from most recent added to earliest added. I do the updates about once a week.

In any of my pages, "GHG" means Greenhouse Gas, and may imply carbon dioxide only or any of the known large-scale gaseous contributors to climate havoc. Nitrous Oxide, as used for a pain-killer during childbirth or dentistry, is not one of those. All other Nitrous Oxide applications and other NOx gases are.
