(Article by P Gosselin republished from ClimateDepot.com) The European Institute for Climate and Energy (EIKE) presents its latest climate video at its Youtube channel. Examined today is a paper appearing in the journal Nature Communications titled: “Seasonal sea-ice in the Arctic’s last ice area during the Early … Continue reading Nature publication: Researchers find arctic region 10,000 years ago warmer than today
Carbon dioxide levels have nothing to do with global temperatures, top scientist says
Meteorologist William Kininmonth with the Global Warming Policy Foundation (GWPF) authored a new paper on so-called “greenhouse gases,” revealing that carbon dioxide (CO2) does not impact global temperatures as many falsely claim. At worst, CO2 has a “minimal effect” on temperature and climate, which is constantly in a state of flux due to factors far outside the … Continue reading Carbon dioxide levels have nothing to do with global temperatures, top scientist says
COVID-related plastics pollute the world’s oceans, study reveals
A recent study published in the journal PNAS calculated for the first time how much waste in the form of single-use personal protective equipment (PPE) ended up in the oceans since the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic began in 2020. “The Covid-19 pandemic has led to an increased demand for single-use plastics that intensifies pressure on an already out-of-control global … Continue reading COVID-related plastics pollute the world’s oceans, study reveals
Celebrate, but not with glitter: Glitter is a toxic pollutant that should be banned, warn scientists
Glitter is tiny, sparkly and festive, but these minuscule particles are harmful to the environment. According to experts, glitter should be banned to protect oceans and marine life. Why is glitter bad for the environment? Glitter particles are very small, and marine animals often mistake them for food. This is bad because microplastics like glitter can damage … Continue reading Celebrate, but not with glitter: Glitter is a toxic pollutant that should be banned, warn scientists
Is ocean acidification another climate change HOAX? Scientists blow the whistle on massive, coordinated data manipulation and FRAUD
The “last refuge of the climate scoundrels,” to quote a friend of Australian physicist Dr. Peter Ridd, is “ocean acidification,” a global warming conspiracy theory that appears to be the latest hoax of the climate change cult. Despite dozens of published papers claiming that ocean acidification is real, a group of whistleblowers has come forward to request … Continue reading Is ocean acidification another climate change HOAX? Scientists blow the whistle on massive, coordinated data manipulation and FRAUD
Marine life heading away from the equator could signal global mass extinction, scientists warn
When it comes to biodiversity, the waters around the equator have long been miles ahead of most of the rest of the planet. The tropical waters are known for their rich and varied marine life, with creatures ranging from vibrant coral reefs, whale sharks and sea turtles to tropical tuna and manta rays. Unfortunately, its … Continue reading Marine life heading away from the equator could signal global mass extinction, scientists warn
Japan to dump radioactive Fukushima water into the ocean, says it’s “unavoidable”
Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga said the government has put off figuring out what to do with all of the radioactive water at the now-defunct Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant for long enough. The prime minister will decide next week whether to dump the radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean in spite of strong opposition from fishermen in Fukushima. Officials … Continue reading Japan to dump radioactive Fukushima water into the ocean, says it’s “unavoidable”
Fish off the coast of Fukushima show high concentrations of radioactive cesium
For the first time since 2019, fish contaminated with high levels of radioactive cesium have been caught off the coast of the Fukushima Prefecture in Japan on Feb. 22, according to local public broadcaster NHK. Laboratory tests revealed that black rockfish caught at a depth of 24 meters (m) nearly 8.8 kilometers (km) off the coastal town of Shinchi … Continue reading Fish off the coast of Fukushima show high concentrations of radioactive cesium
Microplastic pollution found near summit of Mount Everest
Scientists from the University of Plymouth in the U.K. recently made a disturbing discovery near the summit of Mount Everest, the tallest mountain on Earth: microplastics. Microscopic pieces of plastic were found just a few hundred feet short of the peak of the 29,000-foot mountain, at a spot known as the balcony. The scientists collected snow samples from 11 locations on … Continue reading Microplastic pollution found near summit of Mount Everest
“Eco-friendly” glitter just as damaging to the environment as conventional glitter, study finds
“Eco-friendly” glitter has become increasingly popular these days, fueled in part by the need to find alternatives to conventional polyethylene terephthalate (PET) glitter, a known environmental risk. However, a new study reveals that so-called eco-friendly glitter is just as damaging to the environment, causing ecological damage to rivers and lakes, as its plastic variant. The report, published in … Continue reading “Eco-friendly” glitter just as damaging to the environment as conventional glitter, study finds
