Who doesn’t admire the beauty of freshly fallen snow or the ice-capped mountains? Even if someone doesn’t like cold weather, there is no way they could resist the breathtaking charm of snowy landscapes. Alas! These landscapes are melting away. The planet is witnessing drastic global
Earth’s movement is quite normal, as its spins on its axis around an invisible path due to the gravitational forces. However, new research suggests that for the past few years, climate change and human water usage are altering the earth’s axis which is quite a
It is widely known that global warming has profound impacts on oceans and contributes to sea-level rise. Recently, a study used satellite imagery to confirm the strengthening of ocean eddies that could devastatingly disrupt the oceans’ CO2 absorption capability. Scientists used three decades of data
First held on April 22, 1970, the annual event of Earth Day has become a staple in demonstrating a united front in support of environmental protection. Each year the global community comes together to focus on climate literacy, environmental justice, and youth-fed climate-focused issues. Earth
