USA Today: A few weeks have gone by now that Pope Francis's encyclical on ecology and climate change was published. The importance lingers. As a Catholic, I admit that I was moved and excited to see that this important message focused exclusively for the first time on the moral urgency of our environmental problems. As a papal document that defines the Church's stance on a subject, the encyclical could have a transformative effect on the climate change conversation. The encyclical and campaign Pope Francis...

Gizmodo: What happens when you mix record-smashing heat and exceptional drought? Fire! Lots of fire!

That`s according to a study published this week in Nature Communications, which shows that fire weather seasons have, on average, grown 18.7 per cent longer across the Earth`s surface since 1979.

ABC: Some California leaders will head to the Vatican next week to take part in a conversation about social justice and climate change, but how does the Bay Area fit into that discussion? ABC7 News looks for answers to that question. San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo is traveling to Italy this weekend. He told ABC7 News, "When you have an opportunity to talk to colleagues representing big cities throughout the world, there's always a great opportunity for learning."
