A new study has revealed that significant portions of Greenland’s ice sheet have transformed into vegetation, posing risks such as increased greenhouse gas emissions, rising sea levels, and landscape instability. The research, which analyzed satellite records from the past three decades, estimates that approximately 11,000 square miles of Greenland’s ice sheet and glaciers have melted […]

Youtubers and the platform are reaping huge profits, thanks to their ability to skillfully blend truth and misinformation. The industry has become so sophisticated that it requires significant time and expertise to debunk the content. Interestingly, even comments from dissenting voices contribute to the reach of these channels, as every interaction counts. Moreover, engagement is […]

A new study suggests that injecting aerosols into the stratosphere could potentially reduce ice sheet melting caused by climate change. However, this geoengineering approach is controversial as it focuses on addressing the symptoms rather than the underlying causes of global warming, and its impacts on natural systems are uncertain. The effects of global warming include […]

The Seattle Times recently published an article stating that climate change, caused by human activities such as burning fossil fuels, has “in part” permanently altered the amount of snow the state of Washington will receive. According to the article, the snowfall will be replaced by rain. However, atmospheric science professor Cliff Mass from the University […]

A new study has raised concerns about the future of our planet, specifically regarding the potential collapse of the ocean system that regulates the climate. The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), which circulates water in the Atlantic, is said to be approaching a tipping point, according to recent research. The AMOC plays a crucial role […]

Europe could experience a “deep freeze” much earlier than predicted due to the potential collapse of a key ocean current, according to a new study by Utrecht University. The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), which drives the Gulf Stream and brings warm air from the Gulf of Mexico to Europe, has been slowing in recent […]

A new study from MIT reveals that around 10 percent of human-made mercury emissions each year are a result of global deforestation. The research shows that the world’s vegetation, including regions such as the Amazon rainforest and sub-Saharan Africa, acts as a sink, removing the toxic pollutant from the air. However, if deforestation rates continue […]

Blistering heat waves and more frequent wildfires are undoing the progress made in achieving clean air in the United States, according to a new study. The study, conducted by climate analytics firm First Street Foundation, predicts that by midcentury, the levels of microscopic soot particles and ozone molecules entering Americans’ lungs will be equivalent to […]

Tim Robinson, the creator and star of the hit comedy series “I Think You Should Leave,” recently made a surprising statement about climate change. In an interview with Boing Boing, Robinson shared his views on the topic, highlighting the importance of addressing the issue and taking action. During the interview, Robinson expressed his concern about […]

Climate change is a pressing issue with severe consequences such as droughts, water scarcity, severe wildfires, and rising sea levels. However, there is still a lot of confusion and misinformation surrounding the subject. To address this, a series of explainers has been created to answer fundamental questions about climate change, its science, and its impact. […]
