The climate crisis is not a distant threat; it's happening right now and affecting what matters most to us. Hurricanes intensified by a warming planet and drought-fueled wildfires are destroying our communities. Rising seas and flooding are swallowing our homes. And record-breaking heat waves are reshaping our way of life.
The good news is we know how to turn the tide and avoid the worst possible outcomes. However, understanding what needs to be done can be confusing due to a constant stream of climate updates, scientific findings, and critical decisions that are shaping our future.
That's why the ABC News Climate and Weather Unit is cutting through the noise by curating what you need to know to keep the people and places you care about safe. We are dedicated to providing clarity amid the chaos, giving you the facts and insights necessary to navigate the climate realities of today -- and tomorrow.

This, after one of the coldest winters in 100 years.
If that isn't the most blatant statement of condescending propaganda, then I don't know what is. You are stupid and afraid, and that is why we at ABC can simplify complex things for you and spoon feed it to your sub-intelligent level. What you need to know is what ABC thinks you should believe, whether it is true or not.
Just got rid of four foot of snow here in Central NY. Most we’ve had in years.
Did Kamala Harris write this article? What a word salad.
I lurk at some leftist discussion groups—and one of the most hilarious subsets are the “lecturers” who treat their audience like they are five years old.
It is some sort of mental disorder—a variation of sociopathy.
Steaming bovine excrement.
Those shipments of good from China to USA burn lots of fossil fuels & China is turning on tons of new coal plants all the time to produce those products inefficiently. Is there anything that Trump can do to have less carbon fuels consuming shipping traffic and more environment-responsible manufacturing done?
Lies,lies and more lies.
Most likely because they think that is still ground where they ‘win’. They lose on any other topic.
...so when losing, fall back to ‘climate deniers!’. You have to love the ‘sea levels rising’, where there’s zero objective examples.
The bad news is that temperatures are going up. The good news is it was mostly colder before. The bad news is that sea levels are rising and wildfires are burning. The good news is we know what to do about it. The bad news is that we won’t be able to live like we have been living. The good news is that some of us will actually get to live better. The bad news is you have to give up your house and cars and go ride a bus to your highrise apartment building. The good news is we will have bigger houses with bigger cars and we will be able to drive faster without all you bad drivers clogging up the roads.
Sub intelligent level is exactly the goal of an education system that is geared towards higher teacher salaries and lower education levels. Teach the kids to be good at changing their pronouns while not actually knowing what pronouns are. This way we can tell them what to be afraid of and they will be afraid because they don’t actually understand.
We could teach them that the carbon that makes up the methane in cow farts was the same carbon that was in the carbon dioxide that the grass made itself out of before the cow ate it. We could also teach them that methane is extremely light and just floats up out of the atmosphere and gets carried away by the solar wind.
Probably more fans, but smudge pots still get used occasionally here in Oregon.
WE’RE ALL GOING TO DIE! AGAIN!
They just got back to page 1 in their playbook.
Except, hurricanes are NOT coming faster or harder. This is just a total lie.
We nearly made it to the upper 30s two nights ago in Houston. It’s normally shorts and t-shirt weather here at this time of year!
I’m in SW Pa and woke up to 24 degree temps and snowing pretty hard. Snow is gone now, but still 29 degrees as I type this.
Oh no, the Obama’s mansion on Martha’s Vineyard which is barely above sea level is soon to be flooded and Al Gores seaside mansion in California is now threatened by the rising tide.
My parents lived through, as mother would call it, the Dirty Thirties. She talked about the summer of 1934 when temperatures in South Dakota reached nearly 120 degrees almost everyday that summer and would barely get below 100 at night. What vegetation that managed to hold on during the heat and extended drought conditions during the mid 1930s was often eaten by hoards of grasshoppers. My father was in college in Omaha and talked about the dust storms so thick streetlights turned on during the day. We have experienced climate extremes before and somehow managed to survive.
