AGP Executive Report
Last update: 7 hours agoClimate impacts: New Zealand’s latest climate report warns its glaciers could lose all their volume by 2100 under high emissions. A separate study finds heatwaves are starting earlier and reaching peak intensity faster, leaving less time to prepare. Climate law: Australia’s High Court has blocked a coal-mine expansion, ruling that emissions from exported coal must be considered. Adaptation: Four Swiss students say sheep’s-wool blankets cut melting on a small Alpine glacier by more than half in a three-month trial, though they stress the method cannot replace emissions cuts. Cleaner homes: Canada announced C$2 billion to retrofit one million homes, aiming to lower heating bills and emissions. Disaster readiness: New Zealand advocates want urgent funding and faster land-use changes in Tairāwhiti before cyclone season, warning that exposed forestry debris could worsen future damage. Public health: A new UK study will assess how climate and environmental changes may expand mosquito- and midge-borne disease risks.
