A study of 17 commonly used synthetic ‘forever chemicals’ has shown that these toxic substances can readily be absorbed through human skin.

University of Texas at Dallas researchers have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model that could help electrical grids prevent power outages by automatically rerouting electricity in milliseconds.

A doubling of the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere could cause an increase in the average temperature on earth from 7 to even a maximum of 14 degrees. 

For the first time, a phenomenon astronomers have long hoped to directly image has been captured by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam). 

NOAA is forecasting an above-average summer “dead zone” in the Gulf of Mexico covering approximately 5,827 square miles — an area roughly the size of Connecticut. 

Carbon dioxide is accumulating in the atmosphere faster than ever — accelerating on a steep rise to levels far above any experienced during human existence, scientists from NOAA and the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego announced today.

To keep warming in check, some experts have proposed brightening clouds over the ocean to reflect more of the sun’s light. 

What do you give to an ocean that has everything? 

An area of high pressure lingered in the upper atmosphere over the U.S. Midwest and Northeast in June 2024. 

Climate change has already begun to transform planet Earth, and over the next few decades these dramatic transformations are expected to accelerate in an ongoing response to greenhouse gas emissions.
