Researchers find methane leaking out of cracks in Antarctic seabed
Methane is one of the most concerning greenhouse gas emissions.

…Numerous seafloor seeps of fluid and gas were identified in the shallow coastal environment of the Northern Victoria Land and McMurdo Sound -- both located in the Ross Sea -- with shipboard water column acoustic surveys and Remotely Operated Vehicle surveys.
One of the most concerning greenhouse gases, methane, has been described as a "super pollutant" by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. It is responsible for about a third of current anthropogenic global warming and is 25 times more potent for global warming than carbon dioxide, according to the agency...

Researchers find methane leaking out of cracks in Antarctic seabed
One of the most potent greenhouse gas emissions has been discovered seeping out of cracks of the Antarctic sea floor, researchers have found.

Scientists say we’ve officially crossed the first irreversible climate tipping point. It’s not theoretical anymore—it’s happening.
Warm-water coral reefs, once home to a quarter of marine life, are dying at a scale we can’t undo. Even if we hit net-zero tomorrow, nearly every reef will vanish.
And this is only the first domino.
The Global Tipping Points Report 2025 from the University of Exeter confirms that humanity has crossed its first planetary boundary: the widespread death of warm-water coral reefs. At roughly 1.4°C of global warming, reefs have exceeded their thermal tipping point, with over 99% expected to die even if temperatures stabilize at 1.5°C. This collapse threatens a billion people who depend on reefs for food, coastal defense, and income.
Scientists now warn of cascading impacts—melting ice sheets, Amazon rainforest dieback, and shifts in ocean circulation—all potentially irreversible if warming continues. The report calls for rapid acceleration of “positive tipping points,” like the global spread of affordable green energy and low-carbon transitions.

‘A Lot of Uncertainty’ Suddenly Surrounds a Storm Hitting California
The storm is expected to move quickly through Northern California, but forecasters are concerned that it will stall in the southern part of the state.

Nov. 13, 2025
A strong, wet storm moving along the California coast on Thursday was set to deliver gusty winds, heavy snow and drenching rains across the state. Forecasters are growing increasingly concerned about its potential to bring flash flooding to Southern California in the coming days.
This complex system will bring potentially the most widespread and heaviest precipitation to the state so far this fall, and the heavy soaking is expected to bring a decisive end to the state’s wildfire season...
