An in-depth look at issues surrounding climate change.

NEWS DIGEST | Sumatra Floods

Deadly floods have struck Aceh and North and West Sumatra, fuelled by extreme rain and years of forest loss that stripped hillsides of their natural defences. Rivers became ‘conveyor belts’ of timber, whole villages were swept away, and thousands remain missing.

Officials are now investigating upstream logging and land-clearance as more than 12 companies come under scrutiny.

Communities, wildlife and vital watersheds face long recovery ahead — a stark reminder that climate-driven storms become catastrophic when ecosystems are already weakened.

ERODING FRONTLINES | From Coast to the Sahel

Coastal soils from Saint-Louis to Keta are disappearing at one of the fastest rates globally — reshaping livelihoods, food systems, and the stability of entire communities. Inland, soils across the Sahel are also weakening as drought, heat + poor water allocation harden farmland and disrupt cropping cycles.

As storms intensify, sand mining expands + dams trap sediment, the ground that once buffered cities, farms + wetlands is breaking apart. Erosion and soil loss are driving displacement, damaging homes, roads + freshwater sources, and accelerating saltwater intrusion that cuts harvests and threatens food security.

Protecting soil is social, cultural + political — tied to land rights, adaptation finance and the uneven impacts of extractive development.

NEWS DIGEST | Indigenous Cultural Burning

As wildfires intensify, Indigenous cultural burns offer a path to healthier forests and stronger community stewardship. These small, frequent and seasonally timed fires create resilient mosaics, support biodiversity and help reduce the risk of megafires. Fire guardian programmes across Canada are reviving this knowledge, training youth and restoring cultural relationships with land.

NEWS DIGEST | COP30 Recap

Tripled adaptation finance marked a major shift, but the absence of a fossil-fuel exit plan overshadowed progress. Frontline countries warned that without fair finance and clear timelines, commitments risk remaining symbolic.

New initiatives — including the Just Transition Mechanism and the Tropical Forest Fund — now depend on long-term funding and political will.

WHEN COLOUR FADES | Nature’s language under threat

Colour in the natural world is more than aesthetics — it’s a language of survival. Vibrant corals, plumage, butterfly wings, and autumn leaves convey signals of reproduction, warning, and ecosystem health. Climate change is erasing this language.

Coral bleaching dissolves centuries-old partnerships between corals and algae; reef fish lose camouflage; pollinators encounter fading cues as trees lose pigments earlier in the season. Across forests, oceans, and even extreme environments, species are struggling to communicate, reproduce, and survive.

These shifts are signals of systemic stress. Preserving colour means sustaining the ecological networks that underpin resilience and adaptation. Supporting coral gardening, protecting habitats, reducing emissions, and monitoring change are steps toward restoring life’s communication network.
