Samoa, located in the South Pacific Ocean, is an island nation that is suffering from various hardships that are a result of climate change. The geographical characteristics of the country; flat land, dependence on the environment makes them prone to climate change, and consequently sea level rise, climate-induced events, and changes in the biophysical environment….
Tropical deforestation is a significant driver of global warming and climate change, posing grave threats to ecosystems, biodiversity, and human societies. Deforestation, especially in tropical regions, involves the large-scale removal of trees and vegetation, primarily for agricultural expansion, urban development, and logging. This process disrupts the balance of the carbon cycle, releasing large amounts of…
Abstract Climate change is one of the most important challenges facing humanity, and at its center lies carbon dioxide (CO2), which leads to environmental pollution. Among the primary components of a greenhouse effect, CO2 is something that contributes to cause climate change (temperature increases) worldwide. We first need to address what we mean when speaking…
NEW DELHI: Heavy Climate change India received around 16 per cent more rainfall than normal in August, and above-normal rains are expected to continue through September for the third time in as many months this year. India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Monday forecasted above normal monsoon rainfall in most parts of the country during September,…
1 Carbon Sequestration: Trees are carbon sinks, meaning that they absorb CO2 from the atmosphere during photosynthesis. In the process, CO2 is converted into organic carbon sequestered in biomass and underground in roots and soil. As a result, forests are significant carbon sinks; absorbing more CO2 than they release. Long-term capacity Long-lived carbon, stored in…
Climate Change difficult Global warming weakness in word wide Such gaps cannot be closed by one country, actor or sector alone: all governments and businesses need to play their proportions and individuals.
Recent developments regarding global warming updates point to important developments and challenges one Global warming Updates | Global warming | Climate change Temperature increase: Human-caused global warming updates has reached unprecedented levels of 0.26°C on average per decade. This acceleration is driven by higher greenhouse gas emissions – (Phys.org) – which currently emit approximately 53…
The recent report from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) emphasizes that there is an 80% probability that the average global temperature .will surpass 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels for a temporary period in at least one of the next five years. This serves as a strong reminder that we are steadily approaching the targets outlined in…
The European Union’s health agency issued a warning on Tuesday, stating that cases of dengue and other mosquito-borne diseases are increasing significantly in Europe due to climate change. Dengue, Mosquito-Borne Diseases Rising In Europe Due To Climate Change The warmer conditions created by climate change are facilitating the spread of invasive mosquitos, leading to a…
Global Warming Is Bad For The Environment The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has stated that the primary cause of the increase in global atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) is the use of fossil fuels, with land-use change also playing a significant role, albeit to a lesser extent. The Health Effects Of Global Warming:…
