Zurich, Switzerland, is shutting down the gas supply to some neighborhoods. Originally aimed at fighting climate change and saving money, it's also a step to cut gas imports from Russia.

Big dairy farms are profiting from California's tougher limits on greenhouse emissions. They're getting paid to capture methane from cow manure. But critics say the system subsidizes polluters.

A satellite has detected massive leaks of methane, a powerful greenhouse gas, from natural gas plants and pipelines. Most of these releases are deliberate, resulting from sloppy pipeline repairs.

President Biden's lofty domestic goals were brought down to earth by congressional opposition, notably from one Democratic senator. International efforts to fight planetary warming also fell short.

Despite a year of increasing weather disasters, Biden's ambitious climate plans may be doomed in Congress.

More than a hundred countries just promised to protect and restore forests. Similar pledges in the past have not succeeded, but forest advocates hope that this effort can learn from past mistakes.

Tornadoes remain among the most unpredictable weather events. Unlike hurricanes, there's little evidence so far that the planet's warming climate is producing more of them, or more severe ones.

Carbon offsets got a big boost from November's U.N. climate summit. New rules could make it easier for companies to pay for carbon-cutting projects in other countries, rather than doing it themselves.

The U.N. climate summit's landmark decision sets aggressive targets for cutting greenhouse emissions. It also promises more aid for developing countries, but many of those countries wanted more.

Climate negotiations in Glasgow, Scotland, have gone into overtime. Countries are divided over how quickly to cut greenhouse gas emissions and over aid to developing countries.

The final day of COP26, the UN's conference where global leaders and delegates are negotiating crucial and concrete strategies to limit greenhouse gas emissions, is underway in Glasgow, Scotland.

Negotiations are coming down to the wire at the U.N. climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland. There's a new draft agreement, but bitter differences remain between rich and poor countries.

The draft, circulated at the United Nations climate summit in Glasgow, calls for an end to coal power and more rapid cuts in greenhouse gas emissions.

It's the second and final week of the UN climate conference in Glasgow after a weekend of protests. World leaders are expected to hammer out details on their plans to slow catastrophic global warming.

The International Energy Agency says that if nations honor their latest pledges to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, global temperatures could be held to 1.8 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels.

In a major expansion, the new rules would apply not just to new operations but to older ones as well. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, and considered key to slowing global warming quickly.

President Biden will address the COP26 climate change conference. He will speak about the United States strategy to reach its climate goals, but he doesn't have any commitments in hand.

A global climate summit got underway today in Glasgow, Scotland. It appears unlikely that this conference will produce any dramatic new changes in policy.

Storms come more often and the sea is rising, says an activist in Bangladesh. Crops are being ruined. Here's how one village is handling the situation.

A look ahead to what COP26 might mean for the fight against global warming as the world's highest profile climate summit kicks off in Glasgow, Scotland.
