Record Levels of Antarctic Sea Ice Melt and the Global Consequences
The Antarctic, often considered Earth's final frontier, is sending us a distress signal: the region has been experiencing record low levels of sea ice. This phenomenon has far-reaching implications, not just for polar ecosystems and wildlife, but for our planet's...
The Impact of Melting Arctic Sea Ice on Wildlife
The rapid decline of sea ice in the Arctic, once caused by the climate crisis and now a major contributor to it, has grave consequences globally. But for the region's delicate ecosystems and its diverse wildlife, the impacts are closer to home.The melting sea ice...
What You Need to Know About Solar Radiation Management
In the face of sharply increasing global temperatures and the dire need to combat the current climate crisis, scientists and policymakers are exploring various innovative solutions. One of the most intriguing yet controversial methods gaining attention is solar...
The Looming Threat: What Happens if the Gulf Stream Shuts Down?
Given the increasing frequency and severity of extreme temperatures and natural disasters now occurring all around the world, it’s fairly clear that the current global climate crisis has grave impacts on our weather. What many people may not realize is that this is...
The Necessity of Climate Intervention: Why Immediate Action Is Critical
The issue of climate change is no longer a fringe subject; it has evolved into a dire and imminent global crisis. With the Earth's average temperature steadily rising, the impacts of climate change are already apparent: we’ve already witnessed the increasing severity...
Greenland: Reflections from a Melting Planet
The first thing I noticed after touching down in the western Greenland settlement of Kangerlussuuaq was barren rock and a gray, sediment-choked river. It was day one of traveling with a group led by Rising Seas Institute and Oceanographer John Englander. As we stood...
