Medicine & TechnologyResults from the study made by a team of scientists show the effects of solar activity on Earth's climate. Planet's temperature is projected to drop by 0.5 degrees Celsius once the Sun's activity diminishes.
From being the major worry for environmentalists to becoming their hope, India the fastest growing economy and major emitter of carbon is working on fixing the global issue.
Researchers from the University of Amsterdam (UvA) have invented a new catalyst that can efficiently convert carbon dioxide (CO2) to carbon monoxide (CO). This soon-to-be-patented invention enables the sustainable utilization of CO2, a potent greenhouse gas linked to climate change. If successful on a larger scale, this invention could provide a practical way for converting CO2 to useful chemicals.
Researchers found that due to these melt ponds, nutrients are able to reach sea creatures more easily in arctic water. The study says that this can be helpful for the life in arctic waters.
Scientists fear that Phoenix may suffer the full impact of climate change if left unchecked due to Trump policy. The whole of Arizona state confirms looming water shortage.
It has been suggested that changes in solar output might affect our climate. Scientists believe a weaker sun could reduce earth temperatures by at least half a degree.
Global warming is the most seen reason by scientists that causes the gradual vanishing of the ice sheets in North America. In the next 300 years, the Barnes Ice Cap Island in Canada is expected to melt as shown in its current situation.
