Volcanoes May Be Slowing Down Climate Change

TIME Ecocentric

Small volcanic eruptions might be part of the reason why the pace of global warming hasn’t kept up with previous predictions, a new study published in Nature Nature Geoscience suggests. But unfortunately for us, the cooling effect is expected to be temporary—if we keep emitting greenhouse gases, the climate will keep warming.

Yellowstone National Park heats up at the fastest rate in 1,250 years

AGreenLiving

In their quest to learn more about summers in Yellowstone, the researchers found that the park has been through its fair share of periods of considerable cooling and warming over the last millennium. But the period between the years 2000 and 2021 was found to be the most intense in terms of warming.

A decidedly impartial review of Mark Jacobson’s 100% Clean, Renewable Energy and Storage for Everything

Renewable Energy World

Based on his work there, he created the world’s first global air quality model in which air pollution affected the weather and the weather affected air pollution, thus forging his hybrid science career. In 2000, he began using models to unlock renewable energy solutions. to 4 million deaths that occur worldwide, each year.”

Pump up the volume: Hydrogen hits the big time

Hydrogen Fuel News

The new production line occupies some 2000 m2. These items include the manifolds for the gas, the cooling system, the gas separation system, and the electrical connections among others. The challenge is global warming, part of the solution is a gigawatt-scale factory.

Extreme Heat Is Deadly, Expensive, Inequitable, And Now, More Than Ever, Preventable

Energy Innovation

Hot and humid conditions make it harder to sweat, constraining our natural evaporative cooling ability. The team found that the heat exposure level that exceeded the body’s natural cooling ability—what they call an “uncompensable” level of heat stress—occurred well below 95ºF for all subjects (see Figure 1). Conclusion.
