Urban trees in south-east England can't cope with the changing climate | New Scientist (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It is an unseasonably warm day in September, at the end of a very long, very hot summer. Kevin Martin is sitting in the passenger seat of a golf buggy, staring at a stand of withering beech trees in the middle of Kew Gardens, in south-west London. Where there should be a show of dancing green leaves, there are only wisps of brown curls amid bare branches. Martin is responsible for tending and curating the 11,000-strong tree collection at Kew. But successive heatwaves and a severe drought have be
SpaceXAI data centre may have led to Mississippi air pollution spike | New Scientist (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dozens of temporary gas turbines in Mississippi powering a huge SpaceXAI data centre in neighbouring Tennessee have caused a major spike in nitrogen oxide air pollution, satellite data suggests. SpaceXAI and local authorities dispute the claim. SpaceXAI’s Colossus 2 data centre in Tennessee came online in 2025 and is now the largest operational data centre in the US, servicing the firm’s rapidly growing artificial intelligence technology. However, the site has been embroiled in controversy over
Heat spikes over Tibet may help explain severe Californian flooding | New Scientist (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In 2017, California experienced its wettest winter on record. Record-breaking rain in January of that year caused major flooding, inundating hundreds of homes, blocking roads and causing power blackouts for more than half a million people. But the torrential rain puzzled researchers because it occurred during a weak La Niña phase, where sea-surface temperatures in the Pacific Ocean are generally below normal. This would usually increase the risk of a dry winter for California, not a very wet one
How worried should we be about the invasive mosquitoes in the UK? | New Scientist (opens the original)

Aedes aegypti mosquitoes and larvae – which can transmit infections like dengue, chikungunya and Zika virus – have been found breeding in the UK. The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) announced on 3 September that the species had been detected at residential properties in east London. This marks the fourth time it has been discovered in the UK in recent years, and the first time it has been found breeding. Genetic trick to make mosquitoes malaria resistant passes key test The mosquitoes are usua
Super El Niño could have unexpected effect on UK winter | New Scientist (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The unprecedented El Niño gathering strength in the Pacific Ocean could upend forecasts for UK weather this winter, bringing continuously wet, stormy conditions until spring. El Niño is a natural climate phase that happens when easterly trade winds weaken, allowing the warm water they had piled up in the western Pacific to wash back across the central and eastern Pacific. This swathe of warm water heats the atmosphere and weakens the winds further in a feedback loop. The phenomenon’s impact on t
