I know everything I am looking for is here, watch movies, watch series, education, games, exams, news, current events and many more.
“#Researchers introduce new theory to calculate emissions liability” The Michigan Tech campus. Credit: Michigan Tech A comparison of the results for conventional point source pollution and bottleneck carbon emissions sources shows that oil and natural gas pipelines are far more important than simple point-source emissions calculations would indicate. It also shifts the emissions liability towards…
“#Researcher uses computer modeling to predict reef health” A UBCO researcher is using years of compiled data to determine how virtual reef communities will respond to threats including cyclones and coral bleaching. Credit: Jean-Philippe Maréchal. A UBC Okanagan researcher has developed a way to predict the future health of the planet’s coral reefs. Working with…
“#NASA’s terra satellite catches the demise of post-tropical cyclone Marco” On Aug. 25 at 12:30 a.m. EDT (0430 UTC), the MODIS instrument that flies aboard NASA’s Terra satellite gathered infrared data on post-tropical cyclone Marco that showed a small area of storms where cloud top temperatures were as cold as minus 50 degrees Fahrenheit (minus…
“#Plastics, waste and recycling: It’s not just a packaging problem” Credit: CC0 Public Domain Discussions of the growing plastic waste problem often focus on reducing the volume of single-use plastic packaging items such as bags, bottles, tubs and films. But a new University of Michigan study shows that two-thirds of the plastic put into use…
“#’Earth breathing’: mountain erosion a missing piece in the climate puzzle” Better quantifying carbon emissions from mountain erosion could paint a different picture of the global carbon budget.

“#Climate change and the challenge of community relocation” Credit: Kelly Sikkema Climate change will profoundly affect how people move and where people live. Coastal communities, home to approximately 40% of the U.S. population, face the prospect of continuing sea level rise. Inland areas are not immune, faced as they are with the potential for flooding…
“#Potential of achieving climate target with bioenergy is limited” Credit: Unsplash/CC0 Public Domain Large-scale implementation of bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) is often considered to be an important measure to reach the climate targets set out in the Paris Agreement. A new study from researchers at Radboud University, Utrecht University and the PBL…
“#4 reasons why a gas-led economic recovery is a terrible, naïve idea” Credit: Shutterstock Australia’s leading scientists today sent an open letter to Chief Scientist Alan Finkel, speaking out against his support for natural gas. Finkel has said natural gas plays a critical role in Australia’s transition to clean energy. But, as the scientists write,…
“#Long-term threat to Mauritius ecology after spill: Japan experts” The MV Wakashio spilled 1,000 tons of oil into the waters off Mauritius, raising fears of an ecological disaster The major oil spill caused by a Japanese ship that ran aground in Mauritius may pose a long-term threat to the region’s ecology, including to the Indian…
