This map depicts the global temperature anomalies for the meteorological summer in 2023 (June, July and August). It shows how much warmer or cooler different regions of the Earth were compared to the baseline average from 1951 to 1980: NASA Earth Observatory/Lauren Dauphin

The climate crisis delivered a strong blow: the summer of 2023 was the hottest ever

Google released a doodle in honor of Eunice Newton Foote, who discovered the cause of the climate crisis already 170 years ago

Eunice Newton Foote was the first to discover the alarming effects of carbon oxides in the atmosphere in 1856. Today this phenomenon is known as the greenhouse effect. It can be said that then also began the denial of the climate crisis that continues to this day

The power outages prove what the OECD stated: Israel is lagging behind in taking measures to reduce the climate crisis

According to the organization's report published this week in Israel, 5% use renewable energy sources, if we were closer to 12% - the OECD average, it would be easy to avoid the shame of self-initiated power outages during the day in a hot country like ours

Porous crystals for trapping greenhouse gases contain fluorine

  • No comments
Gases containing fluorine - including those known as per- or polyfluorinated hydrocarbons [PFCs], have been found to have multiple effects on global warming. Researchers have recently succeeded in developing innovative crystalline materials capable of selectively adsorbing the molecules of fluorine-containing materials. The researchers hope that these porous crystals can be useful for binding and recovering such gases
