In recent years, the world has seen significant economic progress, which greatly relied on energy fueled by coal and petroleum among others. With the continuously growing demand for energy, it is a fact that these energy sources may be depleted in the near future. Apart from this, there are several other reasons why humankind already […]

Why Does Waste Matter in the Gaia Theory?
Do you know where your food comes from and where the uneaten leftovers go after you’ve thrown them away? Whether you’re thinking about it or not, every action you take has some effect on the world around you. A chemist named James Lovelock hypothesized that living organisms interact with their surroundings to maintain a livable […]
Understanding the Impact of Climate Change on Water Resources
From the vast oceans that cover most of the Earth’s surface to the rivers and lakes that crisscross continents, water resources are fundamental to the survival of all living organisms. However, this vital resource is under threat, not from scarcity, but from the changing dynamics of our planet’s climate. As we witness a shift in […]
Australia: A Climate Crisis
The world, as we know, is getting warmer and warmer. Weather across the globe is changing significantly, and it’s all down to climate change. From increasing sea levels, the melting of polar ice caps and not forgetting constant reports on hurricanes and heatwaves, the world is going through a climate crisis, and there isn’t long […]
5 Ways Artificial Intelligence is Helping to Save Our Planet
It takes a high level of data analysis to predict the effects of climate change and the implications of our actions to stop and adapt to it. Often, scientists have terabytes of data, but not the computing power to make sense of climate issues like hurricanes. But this level of analysis is possible with artificial […]
Is Global Warming Causing Stress Among Young Students?
Climate change is a pressing global issue and has only grown in the public eye. After many decades of suspicions and then confirmations of the negative impacts of humans on the environment, there are ever-increasing environmentalist movements that strive to bring awareness to the issue and try to stop and reverse these destructive forces. The […]
The Role of Bioengineering in Sustainable Food Supply Chain
Every year, the production of food around the world accounts for almost a third of all global emissions of greenhouse gases. Deforestation, grazing livestock, and the use of fertilizers all contribute to climate change. Finding ways to minimize the damage that food production causes is becoming a priority in the fight against global warming. In […]
