One afternoon earlier this year, Mridula collapsed on the floor of the Dhaka garment factory where she works, overcome by dizziness in the heat. The 20-year-old sewing operator, who works at a factory in Mirpur, northwest Dhaka, said summer heat often leaves her restless and "physically uncomfortable." "The heat can be very difficult to tolerate," said Mridula, a pseudonym. Co-workers with high blood pressure seem to struggle even more during the hotter months, she has noticed. After she collapsed, she was taken to the factory's medical room. She said the doctor told her to rest, . . .

Climate change can look very different at the scale of a forest, field or hillside. A new review shows how changes in vegetation and atmospheric conditions can cause local microclimates to warm at very different rates from the regional climate-and why this matters for understanding how biodiversity will respond to climate change.

Solar technology has advanced significantly since the first laboratory demonstrations. Solar devices that were initially used to power isolated telephone systems can today provide enough electricity to charge a laptop on a camping table or run a router during a storm.  These developments have important implications for people preparing for power outages, pursuing an off-grid lifestyle, or trying to reduce the environmental impact of their energy use. This paper outlines the evolution of small-scale...

Anna Fatuma is a 31-year-old woman who runs a kibandaski in Tumboni village, Kitui county in eastern Kenya. Kibandaski is Kenyan urban slang for an affordable, open-air urban eatery, often a small shack made of iron sheets, 3-ply wood or canvas. They are popular with low-income customers. Inside, smoke from firewood beneath simmering pots hangs in the air, while dark stains from settled soot mark the walls around cooking areas. The heat from the food, the smoke and the cramped space make the kibandaski humid and uncomfortable. Fatuma's kibandaski is one of these small roadside eateries. She . . .

A park ranger in the Democratic Republic of Congo survived an ambush that killed colleagues. In Cambodia, mines and dams are pressing against land set aside for wildlife. In the Amazon, illegal miners are changing tactics as authorities try to remove them from Indigenous territories. These are different places, with different problems documented by Mongabay, but they point to a question now confronting governments: How much protection does a protected area actually provide? That question will follow delegates to Yerevan, Armenia, for the U.N. Biodiversity Conference, COP17, from Oct. 19-30. In . . .

VERSHIRE, Vermont – When Sabra Ewing and Sebastian Lousada bought a tired dairy farm with pastures featuring old apple trees alongside sprouting maples, it was obvious that the grass below these trees' crowns was a lot lusher than in the open. Then they noticed their sheep began to prefer those shady spots, and their manure added to the richness of the grass and of the other annual plants growing underneath. "You do a lot of observation when you're a farmer, and when we put the heritage sheep in the orchard, we quickly noticed," Ewing said in a phone interview after Mongabay's . . .

Action needed to avoid disastrous overshoot of climate targets, according to organisation's environment body

"Can I put a stapled document in the recycling bin?" "Don't even think about getting rid of the K-cups – [senior leader's name] will lose his mind." "Can we acknowledge the existence of climate change in this meeting?" "Scope 2? What are you even talking about?" "But don't the reusable water bottles you're handing out generate more pollution than single-use paper cups?" Fielding office recycling questions. Appeasing leadership quirks. The never-ending debate about environmental tradeoffs. Ask any employee tasked with engaging employees with . . .
