With global warming driven by human-induced greenhouse gas emissions, the frequency and intensity of extremely heat waves have increased over the world in recent years. Concurrently, winter has become warmer in many areas. It is thus interesting to check the frequency and intensity of extremely cold waves. According to Berkeley Earth, the last eight years are the … [Read more...] about Overview of Record-Breaking Cold Waves in the Winter 2022-2023 and Their Linkage to Global Warming

Record-Breaking Heatwaves Around the World In 2022
With global warming driven by greenhouse gas emissions, both intensity and frequency of heatwaves is steadily increasing over the world. According to the Berkeley Earth, the last eight years are the warmest eight years, while June 2022 was the warmest June on land since records began in the mid-1800s.In 2022, multiple intensive heatwaves in Asia, America, Europe, … [Read more...] about Record-Breaking Heatwaves Around the World In 2022
8 Individual Actions to Mitigate Climate Change
Climate change driven by greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is increasingly affecting the entire world. Nowadays, tackling climate change is at the top of global agenda. The target set in the Paris Agreement by the Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change (IPCC) is to limit global warming to 2.0°C, preferably to 1.5°C, above the pre-industrial level. However, the global average … [Read more...] about 8 Individual Actions to Mitigate Climate Change
Differences Between Net-Zero Emissions, Carbon Neutrality, Climate Neutral, Carbon Offset, and Carbon Footprint
Climate warming driven by human-made greenhouse gas emissions is increasingly affecting the entire world. Nowadays, tackling climate change is at the top of the global agenda. The target set by the Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change (IPCC) is to reach global net-zero emissions by the middle of this century and limit global warming to 2.0 or preferably 1.5 degrees … [Read more...] about Differences Between Net-Zero Emissions, Carbon Neutrality, Climate Neutral, Carbon Offset, and Carbon Footprint
