How the Earth’s climate future changed due to extreme heat: if not for one ‘but’

Scientists believe that all climate disasters on the planet are caused solely by the presence of humans. Earth’s history spans more than 4.5 billion years, and our planet has never been closer to “climate collapse.” Climate change has caused the Earth to effectively enter a “heatwave,” causing extreme temperatures, droughts and floods, Science Alert reports. Climate Apocalypse: Impact of Global […]

Global climate crisis: the planet is on the verge of irreversible changes

A study by German physicists and oceanographers warns that if global warming continues, the El Niño climate phenomenon may be approaching a critical point in the coming decades, after which its effects will become irreversible. Climate model CESM1 warns that El Niño is approaching its tipping point: the consequences of rising temperatures could be catastrophic Scientists from the University of […]

Countries around the world are suffering from extreme heat

Meteorologists attribute the current above-average temperatures in many parts of the world largely to global warming. While some regions are experiencing colder conditions, the majority are still facing well above-average temperatures. According to BBC Weather’s Chris Fawkes, these heat waves are “a consequence of climate change.” The threat of heat: how high temperatures endanger lives and forests Extreme heat can […]

Satellite mission: searching for the secrets of clouds and climate

A high-tech joint satellite between the European and Japanese space agencies has been launched to measure the impact of clouds on climate. Cloud research: key role in climate change Certain lower-altitude clouds contribute to cooling the planet, whereas those found at higher altitudes function as a heat-trapping layer. The Earthcare mission utilizes lasers and radar to examine the atmosphere. to […]

Using Geoengineering to Fight Global Warming: Saving the Planet on the Brink

Climatologists emphasize the need to cool the Earth as human activities have severely disrupted its energy balance. The problem of global warming is getting worse every year, and climate change is causing more and more destructive natural disasters. In 2023, the world recorded its first temperature increase of 1.52°C above pre-crisis levels, and greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise. According […]

Climate change: March 2024 became the hottest in history

March this year marked the highest recorded temperatures globally  this year, ending a 12-month streak of records in which each subsequent month was hotter.  During the period spanning from April 2023 to March 2024, the mean global temperature exceeded the average temperature observed during the pre-industrial era of 1850-1900 by 1.58 degrees Celsius.Information about this is reported by Reuters, citing […]

A new step in the fight against the climate crisis: NASA proposes a method of freezing the Earth’s atmosphere

Scientists warn that the world could face more severe heat waves, droughts and wildfires in 2024 than in previous years. In response to this threat, scientists around the world are actively developing ambitious strategies and plans to alleviate the impacts of climate change. The Daily Mail reports this. Airplanes at altitude: NASA’s plan to spray ice to cool the Earth […]

Interconnected realities: climate change and the surge of locust swarms draw heightened attention in recent years

A recent research article in the journal Science Advances suggests that climate change might stimulate heightened winds and precipitation, potentially resulting in more frequent occurrences of desert locust outbreaks. These migratory insects, increasingly recognized as significant agricultural pests in various regions of Africa, the Middle East, and Asia, could proliferate rapidly due to the effects of climate change. Scientists warn […]

The Butterfly Effect: How Climate Change Affects Wildlife – Research Findings

A recent publication in CABI Reviews underscores that the effects of climate change on wildlife will manifest across various facets, encompassing nutrition, habitat, conduct, physical well-being, and psychological health. These observations highlight the need for careful analysis to determine priorities for protecting the welfare and longevity of food animals (including pets) and those kept in sanctuaries and zoos. Climate Change […]

Climate change: what changes await Europe?

How will the climate change in different parts of Europe in half a century? This question is becoming increasingly pressing as human activity accelerates warming at a rate not seen in the last two thousand years. This is the main conclusion of the sixth report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, better known as the IPCC. The report analyzes […]
