Climate change is also disrupting the weather patterns that help animals know when to begin their migration. How can we save wild animals from extinction? The CMS or Bonn Convention, signed in 1979, helps countries coordinate efforts to protect migratory species on their routes. The parties meet every two to three years to monitor progress […]
Warmer sea surface temperatures are largely caused by global warming, which is primarily caused by the burning of fossil fuels. Every few years, a naturally occurring weather phenomenon, El Niño, warms the ocean surface in the southern Pacific, causing hot weather globally. The current El Nino is expected to peak in 2024. In contrast, a […]
“Except if they are brought by ocean currents from other parts of the planet or originate in Antarctica itself.” Ruberto said microplastics – particles smaller than five millimeters – were a global problem due to the widespread use of plastics and were harmful to life, as they are often ingested, causing accumulation within organisms that […]
A preliminary US analysis of satellite data showed on Monday that the surface area of sea ice around Antarctica is likely to be at a record low this winter, when it was at its maximum size. As the Southern Hemisphere transitions to spring, the US National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) said in a […]
The most CO2 was in an 1,800-kilometre-wide (1,120 mi) region called Tara Regio, where there is a lot of “chaotic terrain” with jagged peaks and cracks. What exactly causes the chaos in the area is not well understood, but one theory is that warm water from the ocean rises up to melt the surface ice, […]
“The entire process takes place in Tunisia, from the denim converted at Ksar Helal to the Tunisian seamstresses who do the sewing” for Outa, said Montresor. However, production costs are 20 percent higher than denim without the marine plastic content. Despite this, Montresor believes he can “bring other entrepreneurs together and inspire designers to create […]
“These interactions may include competition for food and space as well as predation. More research is needed to understand whether the effects are positive or negative.” In a 2021 article, members of the same research team warned that the influx of invasive coastal species “could portend significant ecological change in the marine environment”. A study […]
District and sub-district administrations, and other government agencies, hotels, resorts, ships and trawler business people, and tourists are pushing Bangladesh’s only coral-rich island, St. Martin, to its end. This situation reminds us of the folk tale of the greedy farmer who had a duck that laid golden eggs. But there are laws, regulations, directives, administration, […]
