Some CDR Geoengineering technologies will delight Africa
It’s the season of rain in Africa like in some parts of the world, and a time for cold winds for most of the sub-Saharan. It’s a time that farmers look forward to and a time that prices for certain commodities change. It’s also a time that communities prone to floods and erosion are chary, [...]
NEPAL: Hypocrisy at its best, Climate Change an issue of Political Image
The Prime minister of Nepal Baburam Bhattrai is planning to leave for the trip to Rio de Janerio on Monday to address the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development of Rio+20 from June 20-22. The government made the decision on May 29 after the dissolution of the Constituent Assembly where PM Bhattarai is expected to [...]
Understanding Ozone Layer Geoengineering
Stratospheric ozone depletion from eruption of large volcanoes in South America is likely, given their ability to release huge amounts of bromine –- an Ozone Depleting Substance, (ODS) — into the atmosphere. This awareness recently came from a study of chemicals released from 14 large volcanoes in Nicaragua over the past 70,000years. The study is [...]
Melting Arctic Ice is Releasing Massive Amounts of Methane
The melting Arctic ice is causing huge quantities of methane gas to be released into the atmosphere. Concerns about climate change-inducing greenhouse gases are often centered on carbon dioxide (CO2), but methane is a greenhouse gas that is 20-30 times more potent than CO2. Each methane molecule is actually about 70 times more potent in [...]
On the eve of Rio+20, a scientific forum sounds the alarm on the state of the planet
Biodiversity in decline, melting glaciers, acidification of the oceans, threatened water resources: most of the environmental indicators on our planet are flashing red. Using the latest data available, participants attending the Forum on Science, Technology and Innovation for Sustainable Development, to be held in Rio de Janeiro from 11 to 15 June, intend to draw [...]
