Mountainous, densely populated Japan has little land available for large solar farms, so developers are erecting arrays on many of the now disused golf courses that proliferated during the country's 1980s economic boom.

As the Arctic warms and tundra thaws, minerals long trapped in frozen soil are leaching into rivers, turning them orange and acidic. A study from northern Alaska found “rusting” waters to be more metallic and acidic than drainage from metal mines.

Soaring energy costs are driving a solar rush in developing countries, but as households unplug from the grid, those who remain face higher electricity bills. If governments fail to manage the buildout, the growth of solar could destabilize power systems and deepen economic inequality.

As climate change bites, prioritize healing “People often experience climate change not as a single disaster, but as gradual erosion of health, livelihoods, social cohesion and dignity. Mental health sits at the centre of those losses, yet remains mostly invisible in the systems designed to address them.” https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-026-02928-0 #Environment #Climate #Science #Health #ClimateDiary #ClimateCrisis #Nature
Losing your way of life to climate change matters — and we need a way to measure it

Losing your way of life to climate change matters — and we need a way to measure it

Climate losses extend beyond property and income. Policymakers need ways to assess what people value, experience and ultimately stand to lose.

India, a country of nearly 1.5 billion people, has long relied on coal to power its growing economy. But over the last two years, it has seen a remarkable shift: The rapid buildout of renewable energy has halted the growth of coal.

As researchers around the world begin work on the next U.N. climate assessment, fears are growing that the Trump administration could meddle with critical U.S. climate data. In response, scientists are preparing to transfer vast troves of that data to repositories in Germany.

At least 124 people were murdered last year for defending their forests, farms, or waterways from destruction or degradation, according to a stark new report. Its authors say that deep cuts to foreign aid by wealthy nations have weakened human rights groups that support environmental defenders.
