The interaction between institutional language and real-world carbon outcomes is paramount to achieving climate change mitigation. The language–policy–outcome (LPO) framework employed qualitative ecolinguistic frame analysis to compare carbon governance discourse in China and the United States (California) between 2007 and 2022, advancing a holistic understanding of how carbon governance discourse intermediates among institutional behavior, epistemic culture, and environmental outcomes.
The scientific evidence for human-caused global warming is stronger than ever, according to a major new review – despite a United States government report questioning the science.

A new study argues that artificial intelligence is reshaping the foundations of human capital theory and the economics of education. It introduces "Intelligence Surplus" as a new analytical framework, proposing that education's role is shifting from building individual productivity to creating the intelligent infrastructure needed for human judgment, meaning-making, and responsible action in human-AI societies.
Polar oceans may play an important role in storing carbon and supporting biodiversity, but current science and policy frameworks are not yet ready to fully recognize their potential.
That is the conclusion of a new review published in Global Change Biology by an international team of polar scientists from the Horizon Europe project POMP — Polar Ocean Mitigation Potential.
