Sermeq Kujalleq, a formidable and rapidly advancing outlet glacier in Greenland, witnessed a massive calving event on September 7, 2023. This event led to the breakaway of colossal icebergs and smaller ice fragments, which subsequently melted in the ocean waters near Ilulissat, Greenland. This phenomenon is indicative of the drastic climate changes that our planet […]
The latest research has made significant strides in exploring the potential impact of non-optimal temperatures on neurodegenerative diseases. These diseases, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, are increasingly becoming a significant global health challenge. The study considers the potential death burden from these diseases under different climate change scenarios from 2013 to 2019. Interestingly, the research […]
Today’s Climate Change Poster Collection focus on Climatology. The term ‘climate’ has its roots in the Greek word ‘klima,’ signifying long-term weather conditions, usually averaged over a span of three decades. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) further elaborates this definition, stating that climate is a statistical representation of weather conditions. These conditions can […]
In a recent United Nations climate conference in Dubai, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) unveiled the latest Red List of Threatened Species. This list highlights a worsening global biodiversity crisis, largely attributed to the impacts of climate change. The IUCN’s report underscored a decrease in several species, including the Atlantic salmon and […]
In a significant development at the United Nations COP28 climate talks, a proposal has been put forth suggesting a global transition away from fossil fuels. The goal is to target net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. This ambitious proposal projects global carbon pollution to peak by 2025, with some exceptions. For instance, individual countries like […]
Today’s Climate Change Poster Collection focus on The Paris Agreement has been making significant strides in addressing the global climate crisis. This international treaty is designed to combat the escalating threat of climate change by setting long-term goals for countries to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions and assess their collective progress. A unique feature of this […]
The rapid advancement and increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) technology has brought with it a multitude of benefits, revolutionizing industries and becoming an integral part of our everyday lives. From chatbots to GPS navigators, AI applications have improved efficiency and convenience in countless areas. However, accompanying these benefits are growing concerns about AI’s environmental […]
Today’s Climate Change Poster Collection highlights Earth Conservation. Earth’s natural resources are incredibly diverse, encompassing elements such as air, water, soil, minerals, and fuels, alongside living organisms like plants and animals. These resources play a vital role in supporting life on Earth, and their conservation is not only beneficial but essential for the well-being of […]
The recently concluded COP28 climate summit in Dubai marked a significant milestone in climate change response efforts. A key development from the summit was the establishment of a fund dedicated to addressing loss and damage in developing countries severely affected by climate change. Developed countries are expected to voluntarily contribute to this fund, which is […]
The aviation industry is proactively delving into the implications of airplane contrails on climate change. Major industry players, such as Boeing and NASA, have recently been conducting experiments to further understand this effect. Contrails, formed by water vapor condensing around aerosols emitted by jet engines, can potentially contribute to global warming by trapping heat. However, […]
