As the body tries to cool down, blood vessels widen, redirecting hot blood from the core of your body toward the surface. Even South America, in the throes of winter, saw unbelievable heat: A town in the Chilean Andes topped 100 degrees F — another all-time high. Other animals can sweat a bit, but not like us.

Since early November , vast smoke plumes have been wafting from eastern Australia all the way across the Pacific to the shores of South America. She added that she wouldn’t be surprised to see a similar, albeit smaller effect on some Patagonian glaciers, given that the wildfire smoke is passing over South America.

These advances might not matter as much in rain-soaked Europe but in much of Africa, South America, Central and Southeast Asia they are vital to continuity of life. Likewise, we can save water by monitoring and tackling leaks as they occur. We can also find water to recycle that was previously disposed of.

The rainforest’s canopy, for example, regulates temperature, cooling the atmosphere. The canopy similarly controls atmospheric water levels, affecting the water cycle and stabilizing the rainfall of South America. Therefore, it plays a vital role in our planet’s climate regulation.

Depending on where you are, somewhere between 30% to 70% of primary energy is spent on heating and cooling. This presents a massive decarbonization opportunity, one reason why geothermal heating and cooling is growing and will continue to grow rapidly. This is inherently wasteful and it comes with a price tag of emissions.

Because the LNG would be trucked a quarter of a mile to a port for export, the facility does not fall under FERC’s jurisdiction, which only applies to terminals where natural gas is cooled to a liquid and directly loaded onto ships, according to the commission’s decision.

Many people point to forest restoration as a way to curb climate change, where replanted forests sequester carbon in trees and soils. But emerging evidence shows that restoration can provide non-carbon climate benefits, too — in particular, reducing heat and regulating rainfall. Here’s what.
