Mosses are one of the planet’s most common – and undervalued – plants. A large new study has finally given moss the recognition it deserves, highlighting its importance in maintaining Earth’s ecosystems and its potential for reducing our carbon footpri… Continue reading How moss makes better soil and helps combat climate change
Salt is one of the oldest and most famous preservatives around. But could it be used to preserve carbon deep underground for thousands of years? Researchers believe it can, and that it just might offer a way forward in combating the atmospheric carbon … Continue reading Salted crops seen as powerful tool to combat climate crisis
After water, concrete is the world’s most consumed material and is the mainstay of construction everywhere, and concrete production’s impact on the environment is significant. Researchers have discovered that introducing an inexpensive, readily availab… Continue reading An inexpensive ingredient may reduce concrete’s climate impact
A new study has suggested that by protecting and restoring wildlife, we can enhance natural carbon capture mechanisms and reduce climate change.Continue ReadingCategory: Environment, ScienceTags: Climate, Climate Crisis, Wildlife, Animals, Extinction, … Continue reading Protecting and restoring wildlife offers a new climate solution
A new study by Stanford University suggests that an 80-mile-wide (130-km) stream of ice in the heart of Antarctica’s “doomsday glacier” may expand over the next 20 years, which would increase its ice loss and contribute to sea level rises.Continue Read… Continue reading Widening of “doomsday glacier’s” main ice stream would accelerate ice loss
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has released its latest report, pulling together the findings of previous reports to provide a more complete picture of how human-caused climate change continues to affect the planet.Continue Reading… Continue reading Latest IPCC report on climate change: “More ambitious action” needed
When someone mentions waves, we are most likely to think of the beach and surfers riding breaks to shore, not the waves deep beneath the ocean’s surface. Now, new research has shed light on the important role underwater waves play in climate change.Con… Continue reading Underwater turbulence revealed as a key factor in climate change
A new study has shown that foods that come from the ocean or freshwater, known as “blue foods,” have the potential to address several important global issues, including nutritional deficits, disease, and climate change.Continue ReadingCategory: Health … Continue reading “Blue foods” can tackle global malnutrition, disease and climate change
Traditional climate models take a lot of data into account when predicting how the planet’s warming trend will continue to progress. But a group of scientists from around the world say that they might be missing a critical aspect to the complex system … Continue reading Feedback loops are overlooked engines of climate change, says study
In our daily lives, dust is little more than a nuisance to be wiped away. On a global scale however, dust carried around the world on air currents has an impact on planetary temperatures. A new study shows that this dust could be masking the true impac… Continue reading Atmospheric dust slowing greenhouse gas effect, for now
