KÆLTIA’s Team in its aim to contribute with the global awareness of the Climate Change, summarise below some critical news: Methane, the main component of natural gas, is the cleanest-burning of all the fossil fuels, but when emitted into the atmosphere it is a much more potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide. By some estimates, […]

KÆLTIA’s Team in its aim to contribute with the global awareness of the Climate Change, summarise below some critical news: The three largest glaciers in Greenland—which hold enough frozen water to lift global sea levels some 1.3 metres—could melt faster than even the worst-case warming predictions, research published by the University of Denmark. New measurements […]

KÆLTIA’s Team in its aim to contribute with the global awareness of the Climate Change, summarise below some critical news: A team of researchers affiliated with several institutions in China and one in the U.S. has found evidence that suggests as many as 30.8 million people suffered premature deaths in China over the years 2000 […]

KÆLTIA’s Team in its aim to contribute with the global awareness of the Climate Change, summarise below some critical news: Arctic sea ice is melting more quickly than once assumed. Today’s climate models have yet to incorporate the steep rise in temperatures that have occurred over the past 40 years. This, according to a new […]

KÆLTIA’s Team in its aim to contribute with the global awareness of the Climate Change, summarise below some critical news: COVID-19 has resurrected single-use plastics – are they back to stay? Moreover, Europe’s major rivers are littered with surgical masks and medical gloves discarded by people. After a storage tank in Norilsk, northern Russia, collapsed […]

KÆLTIA’s Team in its aim to contribute with the global awareness of the Climate Change, summarise below some critical news: The impact of rising sea levels and coastal erosion will see shorelines retreat steadily and provide major challenges for planning authorities, according to a research that involved the University of Western Australia. On the eve […]

KÆLTIA’s Team in its aim to contribute with the global awareness of the Climate Change, summarise below some critical news: A circular economy of plastics will reduce plastic pollution and slow down climate change. Plastics have extremely useful properties: they help us keep our food fresh, make it possible to safely operate electrical devices and […]

KÆLTIA’s Team in its aim to contribute with the global awareness of the Climate Change, summarise below some critical news: The world’s seas are simmering, with record high temperatures spurring worry among forecasters that the global warming effect may generate a chaotic year of extreme weather ahead. Geophysicist remains optimistic for Arctic ozone layer despite […]

KÆLTIA’s Team in its aim to contribute with the global awareness of the Climate Change, summarise below some critical news: East Antarctica’s Denman Glacier has retreated 5 kilometers, nearly 3 miles, in the past 22 years, and researchers at the University of California, Irvine and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory are concerned that the shape of […]

The latest report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) states that without a substantial decrease in our use of fossil fuels, we are on track for a global average increase of 2°C in the next few decades, with extremes of between 3 to 6°C at higher latitudes. The Arctic has experienced the warming […]
