According to the @UN, around one million species are at the risk of disappearing from the planet due to human activities.
As reported by @UNESCO, 29 coral reef World Heritage sites will disappear by the end of the 21st Century if the emissions are kept unchecked.
According to the @UNFAO, deforestation causes approximately 25% of carbon dioxide emissions, equal to the same amount of carbon dioxide production by the United States of America.
Climate change is expected to redraw the world map, and many countries will cease to exist. It is calculated that with 3 degrees Celsius of global temperature rise, 275 million people around the globe will be flooded. And, about 70% will come from eight countries in Asia
According to World Health Organisation (@WHO), more than nine out of ten people live in places where air pollution exceeds the safety limits.
Scientists have informed that we will have an additional 300,000 cases of non-melanoma skin cancer every year across the globe. Furthermore, a sustained 10% ozone layer degradation will cause cataracts in about two million people globally per year.
Ants are everywhere except Antarctica. But that doesn’t mean you should be okay with them creeping and crawling all over the house.
There are several harmless and chemical-free ways you can eliminate the ant colonies. On the brighter side, you won’t have to kill these innocent but not so considerate creatures.
Humankind isn’t the only species that have to adjust to the impacts of climate change and global warming.
A new analysis issued in Trends in Ecology & Evolution exhibits that certain warm-blooded species are starting to “shapeshift” their anatomy concerning climate change.
Many theories verify that animals will be able to adapt to climate change. Short-lived species, such as fruit flies, have more opportunities to evolve than long-lived species, which don’t start breeding for decades.
We’ve all heard scientists and politicians claim that climate change is causing a global crisis. It’s also no secret that humans are guilty of climate change.
Carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (NO), and water vapor are the principal greenhouse gases responsible for the increasing temperature on our planet.
Only two individuals have descended to the planet’s deepest point, the Pacific Ocean’s Mariana Trench, despite the fact that countless climbers have successfully scaled Mount Everest, the highest point on Earth.
The Mariana Trench, located about 200 kilometers (124 miles) east of the Mariana Islands in the western Pacific Ocean, is the world’s deepest oceanic trench.
Pumpkins account for a considerable quantity of wastage each year. And in any case, thinking logically, we were not supposed to use pumpkins as lanterns.
As per @hubbubUK, the People of Britain purchases 24 million pumpkins each year, right around the corner of Halloween.
12.8 million are tossed away since many of us are unaware that pumpkin’s innards are nutritious and healthy. More than half of them are sliced and dumped!
