Today’s Climate Change Poster Collection focus on River Flow Patterns. Rivers are the arteries of our planet, channeling life-sustaining water through landscapes, nourishing ecosystems, and supporting human civilizations. The patterns of river flow—the timing, volume, and variability of water movement—are governed by a complex interplay of climatic, geological, and ecological factors. Traditionally, river flow patterns […]

Climate change, a global concern that has been dominating discussions in recent years, is causing significant shifts in global rainfall patterns. These changes have far-reaching effects, including intensifying typhoons and other tropical storms. Recently, countries like China, Taiwan, and the Philippines have been at the receiving end of these changing weather patterns. They experienced the […]

Air New Zealand recently made headlines as the first major airline to abandon its 2030 goal for reducing carbon emissions. The decision came as a result of obstacles in procuring efficient aircraft and sustainable jet fuel. However, despite this setback, the airline is in the process of conceptualizing a new short-term target and remains steadfast […]
