A United Nations global campaign launched today sees children calling for pledges to help prevent the worst impacts of climate change.

of climate change Prof Lizzie Kendon is a Climate Scientist at the Met Office. She said: “The climate my children will experience will be very different to the climate I experienced as a child. The science is clear, our climate is changing, with impacts around the globe due to human influence. Climate

Climate change will affect how European countries experience summer.

Office Hadley Centre assessed how human-induced climate change has influenced the trend of wet and dry summers in Europe and looked at water availability and rainfall across north and south Europe by the end of the century. The study analysed not only summer trends and extreme events through

The latest forecast from Met Office scientists indicates that the rate of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂) increase this year will remain too fast to meet climate targets outlined for limiting global warming to 1.5°C.

and the influence of factors beyond direct emissions, including climate variability and unaccounted natural processes. Recent CO₂ increments at Mauna Loa significantly exceed those projected in scenarios compatible with limiting warming to 1.5°C, as outlined by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change

The HadGEM2 family of climate models represents the second generation of HadGEM configurations, with additional functionality including a well-resolved stratosphere and Earth System components.

for investigating stratospheric processes and their influence on global climate. The oceanic component utilizes a latitude-longitude grid with a longitudinal resolution of 1 degree, and latitudinal resolution of 1 degree between the poles and 30 degrees North/South, from which it increases smoothly to one
