‘Extraordinary but scary’: Dutch farmers grow rice as climate warms (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The warming climate is allowing Dutch farmers to grow a grain never before harvested in the Netherlands: rice. For centuries, cows were the country's agricultural staple. But now farmers are experimenting with produce previously unthinkable in such a wet, temperate country. And researchers behind the scheme hope rice cultivation could help address one of the country's most pressing environmental challenges: peat soils that are sinking as they dry out, pushing parts of the low-lying Netherlands e
Europeans are beating high gas prices by installing heat pumps (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Heat pump sales in European homes rose by 11 per cent in the first half of 2026, following a surge in gas prices linked to the Iran war. The energy shock has added urgency to the EU’s shift away from fossil fuels, with the European Commission encouraging governments to lower electricity tax. This is a likely driver of the growth in heat pump sales so far this year, according to the European Heat Pump Association (EHPA), which has long argued that their uptake depends strongly on the electricity
Two European countries among the most at risk from storms (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“Climate change is making storms more intense, dangerous, shifting their paths, and putting more and more people within their reach,” according to the recent WorldRiskReport. Storms cause the greatest economic damage of any extreme natural event, the report finds, with poorer economies hit disproportionately harder than wealthy industrialised nations. They also rank third in terms of fatalities, after earthquakes and extreme hot or cold temperatures. The annual report, by German NGO alliance Bün
Why Barcelona’s €150m plan to widen its beaches could be prize-winning (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This summer, Barcelona recorded its highest temperature in more than a century. It’s part of a worrying trend: the Mediterranean is warming around 20 per cent faster than the global average, while record-warm waters are fuelling stronger storms, sea level rise and coastal erosion. The collapse of a stretch of a storm-hit promenade on Barcelona’s northeast coast in 2023 underlined the need for climate resilient infrastructure. Around 70 per cent of the artificial sand added in 2010 has since disa
Retired wind turbines are turning into tiny homes and alpine skis (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Europe is on track for a record wind year, with 8.8 GW of new capacity installed in the first half of 2026 – a 30 per cent jump year on year. That’s enough electricity to power around seven million European households and replace fossil fuel imports equivalent to 25 LNG tankers a year, according to industry nonprofit WindEurope. But every turbine that goes up eventually means one coming down – and manufacturers are still working out how to make sure none of the materials go to waste. Up to 90 pe
