Plastic pollution is a global environmental crisis that has gained significant attention in recent years. One aspect of this crisis is the presence of microplastics, small plastic particles that are less than 5 mm in size. These microplastics can originate from various sources, including industrial effluents and the degradation of larger plastic waste. Shockingly, research

In the fight against the climate crisis, transitioning to clean energy is crucial. Among various clean energy sources, wind energy stands out as the most prevalent. However, despite its potential, the deployment of wind energy projects often encounters significant local opposition. Understanding the prevalence of opposition and the factors that contribute to it is essential

Life on Earth has evolved over billions of years, starting from a single-celled microbe to the complex multicellular organisms that we see today. One crucial process that played a significant role in this evolutionary journey is biomineralization. This phenomenon involves the production of hardened mineralized tissues, such as skeletons, by living organisms. Not only did

Southeast Asia experiences heavy autumn and winter rainfalls, known as winter monsoons, which can lead to devastating floods and landslides. While the scientific community has extensively studied and understood summer monsoons, there is a lack of knowledge regarding winter monsoons. The absence of data from weather stations during certain periods has made it challenging to

Scientists have long relied on ice cores to study past changes in climate. However, the traditional methods of sampling ice cores have limitations that prevent a deeper understanding of temperature variations over time. In a groundbreaking study led by researchers from the Astro-Glaciology Laboratory at the RIKEN Nishina Center in Japan, a new laser-based sampling

A team of researchers from Africa, Asia, and Europe has identified three criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of migration as a means of adapting to climate change. The study highlights the fact that migration is not a silver-bullet solution to climate risks and that it can create winners and losers. Remittances, which include flows of

Dust storms are a major ecological concern and have a significant impact on the climate. They pose a health hazard and can cause respiratory problems. The particles of dust travel freely from country to country and continent to continent and can spread pathogens, contributing to the outbreak of pandemics. However, an early warning for waves

Groundwater pumping has caused the Earth’s axis to shift and has contributed to sea-level rise, according to a new study published in Geophysical Research Letters. Using climate models, researchers estimated that humans pumped 2,150 gigatons of groundwater between 1993 and 2010, the equivalent of over 6mm of sea-level rise. The Earth’s rotational pole moves during
