Bering Sea ‘has less ice than at any time in the last 5,500 years’ due to ‘unprecedented’ melting caused by climate change, study shows
Melting of ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica could add up to 16 inches to global oceans by 2100 Mass loss from 2007 to 2017 due to melt-water and crumbling ice has matched Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change's (IPCC) most extreme forecasts … [Read more...] about Bering Sea ‘has less ice than at any time in the last 5,500 years’ due to ‘unprecedented’ melting caused by climate change, study shows
Indus Valley Civilisation was wiped out by climate change 3,300 years ago as rising temperatures caused less monsoons which were essential for their way of life, study claims
The explanation to this change in fortune, according to Dr Malik's theory, is 'glacier fluctuation', brought about by a phenomenon called orbital forcing, where slight changes in how the Earth orbits the sun influences how much light and heat reaches a specific area. … [Read more...] about Indus Valley Civilisation was wiped out by climate change 3,300 years ago as rising temperatures caused less monsoons which were essential for their way of life, study claims
Aviation accounts for 3.5% of human’s impact on global warming, according to study that found airplanes contributed 13 BILLION tons of CO2 in the past 20 years
'There are many different components of aviation's large impact on climate change, said co-author Laura Wilcox, an atmospheric scientist with the National Center for Atmospheric Science, 'but the positive side of that is it provides us with many ways we can make changes to mitigate it.' … [Read more...] about Aviation accounts for 3.5% of human’s impact on global warming, according to study that found airplanes contributed 13 BILLION tons of CO2 in the past 20 years
Shark without skin or teeth pulled from Sardinia sea fell victim to contaminated waters and climate change, say experts
A blackmouth catshark was pulled the depths near Sardinia that appeared to be in good health amid a number of abnormalities. However, the female's abnormalities did not hinder its predatory abilities, but instead, found ways to adapt - such as swallowing prey whole … [Read more...] about Shark without skin or teeth pulled from Sardinia sea fell victim to contaminated waters and climate change, say experts
