Recent scientific studies reveal that global warming is not only affecting the climate but also altering the Earth’s rotation and length of day. As the planet heats up, massive ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica are melting. This melting ice flows into the world’s oceans, particularly in the equatorial region, changing the Earth’s shape and … Read more
If you’ve ever built a sandcastle on the beach, you know how quickly seawater can undermine it. Similarly, a new study by the British Antarctic Survey concludes that warmer seawater may accelerate the melting of ground-based ice sheets in Antarctica more than previously thought. This finding suggests that existing computer models may underestimate the impact … Read more
Recent findings from federal scientists reveal a concerning trend in the levels of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane, and nitrous oxide – the three most significant human-caused greenhouse gases. Despite ongoing efforts to combat climate change, these gases continue to increase steadily, driven primarily by the burning of fossil fuels. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration … Read more
In a joint announcement, NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have validated that the average global temperature on land and the oceans’ surface reached an all-time high in 2023. The confirmed data, released on Friday, indicates a significant rise, emphasizing the escalating threat of climate change. According to NOAA records, the average … Read more
