Nature Climate Change, Published online: 23 April 2024; doi:10.1038/s41558-024-01995-3Recent policy progress in the United States shows how populism can help advance climate goals, but at a steep cost. Avoiding setbacks will require curbing protectionist reflexes and harnessing opportunities for global cooperation.

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 23 April 2024; doi:10.1038/s41558-024-01983-7Defining thresholds for extreme weather events is important for adaptation but often ignores impacts on climate-vulnerable communities. This research finds current practices do not capture experiences of women in informal settlements and self-reported impact data could...
