A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to restore altered national park exhibits and temporarily halt further removals while a lawsuit challenging the changes proceeds. U.S. District Judge Angel Kelley in Massachusetts issued a preliminary injunction requiring the administration to reverse changes made under a presidential directive on how federal museums, parks and landmarks present American history. The order also requires weekly reports detailing restoration work.

Trump Expands Coal Funding US President Donald Trump has announced a $700 million initiative to expand coal production and support coal-related projects across ten US states. The funding aims to keep over a dozen coal plants operational, support 42 coal mines, build two new coal plants, and develop a coal export terminal. This effort, executed under the Defence Production Act, underscores the administration?

Scientists are warning that 2026 may bring one of the strongest El Niño events in over a century. Known as the Super El Niño, this phenomenon is driven by an unusually powerful Kelvin Wave traveling across the Pacific Ocean. This massive surge of warm water, sometimes more than 13°F above average, is disrupting normal ocean currents and could trigger major shifts in weather worldwide. Understanding Kelvin Waves and Ocean Heating

World Earth Day 2026 is being observed on April 22, bringing global attention to the need to protect our planet. Over the years, this day has grown into one of the largest environmental movements, with millions of people across countries coming together to spread awareness and take action. It is not just about celebrating the Earth, but about understanding the responsibility we all share in protecting it. This year’s theme, “Our Power, Our Planet,” focuses on the idea that real change starts with individuals. Every small action—like reducing plastic use, saving energy, or planting trees—can contribute to a bigger impact. The theme encourages people to realize that protecting the environment is not just the job of governments, but something everyone can be part of. Earth Day began in 1970 in the United States when environmental concerns were starting to gain attention. Inspired by the effects of a major oil spill, leaders and activists organized a nationwide movement to demand better protection for the environment. Around 20 million people participated, making it one of the first large-scale environmental protests. This effort eventually led to important environmental laws and policies . Today, Earth Day highlights serious global challenges such as climate change, pollution, deforestation, and loss of biodiversity. These issues are growing rapidly, affecting not just nature but also human life. However, the day also carries a message of hope, showing that collective action can bring positive change. People across the world take part in activities like tree planting, clean-up drives, awareness campaigns, and educational programs. Many also support eco-friendly habits in their daily lives. These efforts may seem small individually, but together they create a strong movement toward a healthier planet. Earth Day reminds us that protecting the Earth is not a one-day task. It is a continuous effort that requires awareness, responsibility, and action. The choices we make today will directly impact the future, making it more important than ever to take care of our planet.

India remains steadfast in its fight against terrorism in all its forms, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar said while addressing the High-Level Segment of the 61st session of the United Nations Human Rights Council virtually on Wednesday.

Speaking at the UNHRC session, Jaishankar urged the Unite

The Arctic, once considered remote and largely inaccessible, is emerging as a key area of global strategic interest. China has formally included its “Polar Silk Road” initiative within its broader Belt and Road strategy, signaling an expansion of influence in a region historically dominated by Arctic nations. By calling itself a “near-Arctic state,” Beijing is asserting that its economic and strategic interests extend well beyond its geographical borders, prompting concern from other glo

President Donald Trump on Wednesday signed an executive order directing the United States to withdraw from 66 international organisations and treaties, marking one of the most extensive reversals of US participation in global institutions in recent history.

Snowfall in Saudi Arabia is an exceptionally rare event, but what unfolded this winter across parts of the kingdom’s northern desert regions has raised global concern. Areas such as Tabuk and nearby mountainous zones witnessed temperatures plunge below normal, desert hills coated in snow, and official weather alerts issued for conditions usually associated with colder climates. While the visuals of camels walking across snow-covered sands captured global attention, the deeper message behind

The year 2025 has become one of the most turbulent in recent memory as Earth experiences a wave of overlapping natural crises. A rare volcanic eruption in Ethiopia sent ash drifting thousands of kilometres toward Asia, Indonesia recorded more than 1,400 earthquakes in just 30 days, and California battled massive wildfires that claimed hundreds of lives. Severe monsoon flooding washed through India and Pakistan, and the planet was struck by the strongest solar storm in over twenty years. These

Indian climate activist Sonam Wangchuk has found himself at the center of controversy following allegations linking him with Pakistani intelligence operatives. These claims have been firmly rejected by his wife, Gitanjali J Angmo, who described them as baseless and damaging. She argued that attending a United Nations–organized climate summit, even if reported by international outlets including those from Pakistan, cannot be twisted into evidence of anti-national behavior. According to her,

World Environmental Health Day is observed globally on September 26 every year. It serves as a reminder of the deep connection between the environment and human health.

Larry Ellison, the co-founder of Oracle and the world’s second-richest man after Elon Musk, has pledged to donate 95% of his estimated $373 billion fortune. His vast wealth comes primarily from his 41% stake in Oracle and significant investments in Tesla, both of which surged in value due to the AI boom. Ellison first made this pledge in 2010 through the Giving Pledge, a global philanthropic commitment by billionaires to give away most of their fortunes.

India marked a major milestone in space collaboration today with the successful launch of the NISAR mission, a joint project between ISRO and NASA. Lifted into orbit aboard the GSLV-F16 from Sriharikota, NISAR is set to become the world’s most advanced Earth observation satellite. With a unique dual-frequency Synthetic Aperture Radar that combines NASA’s L-band and ISRO’s S-band systems, the satellite can penetrate clouds, forests, and even d

Artificial intelligence could become a powerful ally in fighting climate change, helping to significantly reduce carbon emissions without forcing society to give up the comforts of modern living. A new study suggests that AI applications across just three major sectors—power generation, food production, and transportation—could collectively cut between 3.2 and 5.4 billion tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions annually by the year 2035. That potential reduction would vastl

A Houston-based pediatrician is no longer employed after a controversial social media post in which she appeared to politicize the devastating Central Texas floods drew widespread criticism from the public and ultimately led to her termination. The physician, Dr. Christina Propst, was a practicing pediatrician at Blue Fish Pediatrics before her now-viral comments sparked outrage among parents, patients, and the general community. The controversy began after Dr. Propst posted a

While most parts of the planet continue to experience rising temperatures, a mysterious cold patch in the Atlantic Ocean south of Greenland defies the trend. Known as the “cold blob,” this area has cooled by up to 0.3 degrees Celsius over the past century, even as surrounding waters have warmed. New research led by Penn State University has shed light on this anomaly, offering critical insights into the balance between ocean currents and atmospheri
