Climate change and the environment

 Record number on climate change Climate change Greenland, an area covered with ice two miles above sea level, is located in the center of Antarctica. The island witnessed during the recent period, rain fell on the highest point on the island for two days, instead of snow, this was only the fourth time that temperatures had risen there.  The 337,000 square miles of the territory's ice sheet has been subjected to surface melt, in total, the summit has submerged 7 billion tons of water. “Rain falling in one of Earth’s most reliably frozen regions is an unprecedented shock to the system,” says John Walsh, a professor at the University of Alaska Fairbanks and a scientist at the International Arctic Research Center. unknown". The Labrador and Greenland seas, which wrap around the island's east, south and west coasts, play pivotal roles in driving what Walsh calls the "global conveyor belt" of ocean currents.  These seas are the world's main centers of deep convect...

Us and climate change Climate change , is an inescapable reality In the spring of 1933, the new President of the United States, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, was facing a stifling environmental and economic crisis, as the Ohio and Mississippi River basins were completely submerged,and more than a,  .quarter of Americans were out of work.  Roosevelt's response to these clashing forces, plaguing the United States, was to create a Civilian Protection Corps, that would put young men (and men only), to work in soil conservation, building streets and roads, and fighting fires.  The establishment of this civil legion, we are killing two birds with one stone,” where he meant here the first bird, is to protect the environment, and combat the catastrophic effects of climate change (global warming), and the second is to employ Americans and eliminate unemployment.   The American landscape today, is very similar to that bequeathed, by Roosevelt, as lockdowns imposed to stem t...

One world  Us and climate change Reducing global warming ( climate change ) and reducing the atmospheric temperature by 1.5°C is within reach, but it requires real change and transformation and the active participation of all countries of the world. Gillian Neuberger, legislative engagement coordinator at the World Resources Institute, said, "The bipartisan reconciliation bill (referring to the US Republican and Democratic parties) is not fundamentally transformative, but will make some network improvements necessary for the transition to green energy." But the most important thing is that we're actually getting green energy on that grid, and we need a climate bill that stimulates renewables." Democrats hope to pass both clauses - and more - in a second $3.5 trillion infrastructure bill. Whereas, on Wednesday morning, Senate Democrats took the first step on that path, voting to approve a budget blueprint that would allow them to shield the larger bill from Republic...

Climate change The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has released its sixth report , and the news is very bad. Climate change threatens the world and humanity, and humans themselves are causing it to a very large extent, and the slow response by the countries of the world to reduce and mitigate it means that global warming is inevitable. It is an irreversible reality. Sea level is likely to rise by two feet by the end of this century if the world's countries do not move quickly now and stop using fossil fuels. For the first time, the temperature in Sicily reached 119.85 degrees Fahrenheit, the highest temperature currently recorded in Europe. On Wednesday, August 11, 2021, half of the US population was subject to heat warnings. More than 600 people died in a heat wave (thermal dome) in late June in the Pacific Northwest than would normally die at that time of year. The acknowledged death toll in Oregon and Washington was 194, including at least three workers. Ho...

Forest fires and climate change Will climate change cause the Amazon rainforest to turn into a savannah?  The Amazon rainforest is well humid, but researchers around the world are increasingly asking how long this will be true.  About three decades ago, alarming research began to suggest that the cumulative effects of both deforestation and climate change could cause significant changes in the South American forest, with the forest expected to become drier and more savanna-like than Africa. Instead of lush, wet and dense landscapes. For nearly two centuries, the Amazon region has acted as a natural buffer protecting our world by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen needed for life, as these forests absorb up to two billion tons of greenhouse emissions annually, but during the past few decades unfortunately, The clearing of trees from the Amazon for the purpose of growing soybeans for livestock or animal pastures has exacerbated the drought in the region, with studies ...

 There has been sufficient and appropriate time by all countries of the world and international organizations to think about global warming (climate change) and the devastating consequences it causes for life on Earth as a possible event and reality experienced by all countries of the world today, when we talk about climate change we do not look at The future is a distant matter, but we live in it and live with it now. Previously, it was possible to find solutions to this frightening phenomenon, but those days have passed and climate change has become a reality.  Stalled efforts by governments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate change, either because of some kind of subdued trading in baseless pledges or because of right-wing political movements that have forced countries to delay in addressing the phenomenon. Led by severe climate deniers such as Donald Trump and Jair Bolsonaro - now means the intensification of the climate crisis has been stuck for at leas...
