Climate

Global warming
Global warming refers to the gradual increase in the overall temperature of the Earth's atmosphere, primarily due to the burning of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas, which releases large amounts of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the air. These gases trap heat from the sun, which causes the temperature of the Earth to rise.

Rise To The Challenge: Mitigating Climate Change Through Smart Strategies And Personal Action
Climate change is one of the most pressing issues of our time, and it requires urgent and decisive action to mitigate its devastating impacts and ensure a sustainable future for all. Smart climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies are essential for addressing this complex problem, as they involve using technology and data to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and prepare for the impacts of climate change. These strategies can be applied to various sectors, such as energy, transportation, and agriculture, and are crucial for meeting the goals of the Paris Agreement and limiting global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius.

Top 5 mysterious places in the world
The Bermuda Triangle: The Bermuda Triangle (IMG from Google) The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle, is a region in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean, roughly defined as a triangle between Miami, Bermuda, and Puerto Rico. The area has been associated with a high number of shipwrecks and disappearing aircraft, with some claiming that mysterious and unexplained forces are at play. However, scientific explanations such as human error, equipment failure, and environmental factors like storms, have been put forward to explain the incidents. The US Coast Guard and the US Navy have both stated that the number and frequency of incidents in the Bermuda Triangle is no greater than in any other similarly-sized area of the ocean, and that the disappearances can be explained by natural causes and human factors.

California Battling the Fury of Floods: Causes, Impacts and Mitigation
California, known for its mild weather and beautiful landscapes, is also prone to some of the worst floods in the United States. The state has a complex network of rivers, creeks, and drainage systems that can quickly overflow during heavy rainfall. The state also has a unique geology and location, which makes it vulnerable to earthquakes and landslides that can also cause flooding. The state has been hit by several severe floods in recent years, causing widespread damage, displacement of residents and significant economic loss. In this article, we will discuss the causes, impacts, and mitigation measures of California floods.

Lithium: A Magic Metal?
I hated chemistry Chemistry was never my thing in school. I loathed it. It seemed to be an ‘imprecise’ science, mixing up liquids in glass jars. Physics turned me on. I loved the electricity experiments, pendulums and the physics of the world around me. How things worked, why things worked.
