Recent research suggests that we may need to introduce a new Category 6 hurricane classification due to the intensifying storm activity caused by climate change. This study identified five cyclones since 1980 that could have been classified as Category 6, given their wind speeds exceeded the remarkable 192 mph mark. The current measure used to […]

California’s coastline is currently under siege, as atmospheric rivers relentlessly unleash heavy rain. The situation is exacerbated by El Niño patterns, which are known for boosting extended heavy rainfall. These weather conditions are creating a significant challenge for major cities like Los Angeles and San Diego, which are grappling with potentially life-threatening floods due to […]

Today’s Climate Change Poster Collection highlights Ocean Gyres. The mysteries of the deep, blue sea never cease to intrigue, and one such fascinating phenomenon is the ocean gyre. These are large systems of rotating ocean currents that are formed by global wind patterns, Earth’s rotation, and forces such as the Coriolis effect, planetary vorticity, and […]

OpenAI’s CEO, Sam Altman, has highlighted the need for a significant energy breakthrough to support future AI applications. This is largely due to the high power consumption associated with semiconductors, which are essential components in AI technology. The issue of power consumption becomes even more pressing when considering hyperscale data centers that host power-consuming AI […]

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has rapidly become a striking feature of the modern digital era, reshaping industries and economies worldwide. The essence of AI lies in its ability to replicate human intelligence, allowing computer systems to perform tasks that traditionally necessitate human involvement. This technological breakthrough has laid the foundation for machine learning models, such as […]

Autonomous drones are now at the forefront of scientific exploration and research in the most inhospitable regions of our planet. A prime example of this is their use in Antarctica, where they are being deployed by scientists and engineers to help improve predictions about the impacts of climate change. The drones will be tasked with […]

Climate change is no longer a distant threat but is an active force that’s reshaping our world in profound ways. One of the most affected sectors is the energy sector, where the balance between power supply and demand is increasingly reliant on weather patterns. The state of New York, like many others across the globe, […]

Coldplay, the renowned British rock band, has taken a significant step forward in its commitment to environmental sustainability by partnering with Warner Music Group, Live Nation, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s (MIT) Environmental Solutions Initiative. This collaboration aims to investigate the climate impact of the live music industry, focusing primarily on the UK and […]

In the late 1950s, a significant collaboration took place that would change our understanding of climate science forever. Charles David Keeling, a climate scientist, collaborated with scientists from the U.S. Weather Bureau and NOAA’s Mauna Loa Observatory to measure CO2 levels in the atmosphere. This collaboration began in 1958 and led to the development of […]
