Forget about saving the medical profession. Australia has a generation of chief health officers and doctors who cannot define ‘women’ for fear of activist mobs. That’s a clear indication that ideological decay has become a terminal state – which may partly explain why so many ‘experts’ have turned megalomaniacs during Covid, chanting ‘Show me your paperwork!!!’ while forcing citizens to stand in small green circles painted on the ground. Not. Let’s move on and see if there’s anything left to save in the field of ‘climate science’. There is a consensus among this well-funded industry that the world will end in a fiery apocalypse unless something is done about ‘carbon emissions’. With trillions of dollars poured in over the decades, surely they’ve come up with some brilliant solutions? (Sh, we’re not going to talk about nukes.) This ‘Space Bubble’ shield can counter the effects of c...

Penguins are no strangers to climate change. Their life history has been shaped by fluctuations in temperature, and their bodies are highly specialized for some of the most extreme conditions on Earth. However, scientists fear the penguin’s evolutionary path may have stalled, thanks to the lowest evolutionary rate ever detected in birds. An international team of researchers has just published one of the most comprehensive studies on penguin evolution to date, which is the first to integrate data from living and fossil penguin species. The research reveals a general chaotic penguin life history, with three-quarters of all known penguin species – now represented only by fossils – already extinct. “Over 60 million years, this iconic bird has evolved into a highly specialized marine predator, and is now well-adapted in some of the most extreme environments on Earth,” the authors wrote. “However, as their evolutionary history reveals, they now stand as guardians high...

When Mark Abbott and his team pulled a 300-foot-long mud core from the bottom of a high lake in the Peruvian Andes, he hoped it could provide a glimpse into the last 160,000 years of climate change. Instead, the researchers revealed July 13 in the journal Nature, that the lake floor recorded glacier tides for more than 700,000 years – the longest glacier record for the tropics, and among the longest historical climate records, full point. In the lake’s mud, a multi-agency team found clues about how climate change could shape the modern world. “This is unlike anything we’ve had before,” said Abbott, a professor of geology and environmental sciences at the Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences at the University of Pittsburgh. “We now have a land-based record of glaciation from the tropics that is in many ways the same as our record from polar ice caps and from the oceans, and it’s really lacking.” Researchers have known for decad...

Washington [US]July 15 (ANI): Researchers at the University of Texas Institute of Geophysics (UTIG) and Georgia Tech have developed a methodology that they think decodes why coastal glaciers are shrinking, and in turn, how much of it can be attributed to human-caused climate change. Attributing the role of humans to coastal glaciers – which are melting directly into the ocean – could pave the way for better predictions of sea level rise. The study was published in the journal The Cryosphere. Read Also | Katrina Kaif’s Birthday: From Chikni Chameli To Bang Bang, Kat’s 5 Best Dance Hits That Set The Screen On Fire (Watch Video). So far, scientists have tested the approach only in computer models using simplified glaciers. They found that even modest global warming is causing most glaciers to melt, or retreat. The next step, the researchers say, is for scientists to simulate coastal glaciers from real ice sheets, such as Greenland, which stores enough ice to raise sea levels...

introduction The Role of Microbes in the Environment How Human Activities Affect Microbial Populations How Do Microbes Respond and Adapt to Environmental Changes? Adaptation of Marine Microbes to Climate Change Phytoplankton and Climate Change Conclusion Reference Human activities cause climate change that affects most life on Earth. This article will discuss how microbes, which support all life on Earth, are adapting to anthropogenic climate change. Image Credit: ParabolStudio/Shutterstock.com The Role of Microbes in the Environment Microbes are present in most environments on Earth, from the depths of the ocean to the air we breathe, and even live inside other organisms where they play important biological roles. They are responsible for several important processes, including the fixation of carbon and nitrogen and the breakdown of complex organic molecules. Microbes are essential for life, supporting all higher organisms. Environmental studies need to consider activity at the mic...

The sudden and major reshuffle of the committee that oversees Australia’s emission reductions has led to the departure of three members, including the chair of the committee, paving the way for Labor to re-form the pivotal committee. Key points: Three Coalition appointments to ERAC have been withdrawn The ABC has confirmed two of the three asked to resign ERAC determines which activities are considered a legitimate way to generate carbon credits A government spokesman has confirmed three members of the Clean Energy Regulatory (ERAC) Emissions Reduction Assurance Committee (ERAC) – all controversially appointed by the Coalition – have resigned. The revelations follow a series of ABC reports exposing allegations that valuable carbon credits were being given to businesses for emission reductions that never happened, as well as former committee chairman Andrew Macintosh blowing the whistle on what he called a “mistake”. Economist Brian Fisher, former mining lob...

Glaciers in tropical mountains are experiencing the same impact of climate change drivers as those in the polar regions of Antarctica and the Northern Hemisphere, according to a study published today in Nature. The paper by an international team of scientists, including Robert Hatfield, assistant professor in the University of Florida’s Department of Geological Sciences, is the first to show that the effects of greenhouse gases and other drivers of Earth’s temperature are impacting glaciers in the South. Hemisphere at the same speed as the northern ice sheet. To derive their findings, the researchers used sediment deposits from Lake Junín, high in the Peruvian Andes, to create a record of glacial changes that stretch back 700,000 years. Hatfield explains that much of what scientists know about past glacial changes comes from records of ice growth and decay occurring in the Northern Hemisphere. “As we try to understand how climate works around the world, we need more ...

Climate change and longevity are inseparable. related. There are significant health threats associated with changing weather patterns and some geographies may be hit harder than others. The danger is all-encompassing. Increasingly, leaders in the healthcare industry are raising their concerns about the impact of climate change on healthcare projections. Mustafa Kamel, Janssen South Africa Director of Medical Affairs has been outspoken about his concerns. He says its time to act now! The world has warmed by more than 1°C. We can still limit temperature rise to 1.5°C & avoid the worst climate impacts. But we need more ambition now. “At the end of the Covid-19 pandemic, the world view has shifted to climate change and its impacts in the near, medium and long term. This is a clear reality and variations in severity are expected to be distributed unequally around the world. Some places may be cooler, but other areas experience warmer winters, for example. Included in the p...
