View from space of the Australian bushfires, from the December 30th 2019 to January 2nd 2020. Based on data from JAXA / JMA / Himawari.

As bushfires continue to burn in Australia, towns are still cut off from the outside world, forcing residents to ration whatever fuel, water and food is left until help arrives.

The combination of drought and fire is having a devastating impact on honey production.

The amount of carbon being spewed out into the atmosphere may completely undo what climate policies have helped to prevent over the years, reports CAL Matters.

Findings published in the journal Cretaceous Research reveal that during the Cretaceous, 145 to 65 million years ago, wildfires were much more common than previously thought. During the Cretaceous, temperatures were higher and there was...

The nation remains in the grip of a bushfire disaster. Our coverage begins in eastern Victoria, where more than 300 people have been evacuated by air from the besieged town of Mallacoota.

The U.S. fire season in 2012 was by some measures a record-breaking season. NASA scientist Doug Morton discusses the links between climate and wildfires and the likelihood of seeing more extreme fire events in the future.<b<b<br/>r/>r/>

Those New Year's Eve images of a pitch-black sky thick with smoke, people huddled on the beach, some escaping across the water, are going to stick in the Australian psyche for many years to come. We begin our coverage tonight in the...
