Climate Change - Science topic
Climate Change is an any significant change in measures of climate (such as temperature, precipitation, or wind) lasting for an extended period (decades or longer). It may result from natural factors such as changes in the sun's intensity, natural processes within the climate system such as changes in ocean circulation, or human activities.

Here some good food for thoughts!
Muñoz, Lucio, 2010. What If Markets Have Always Been Distorted? Would It Then Be a Good Fix to Add Fair Trade Margins to Correct Distorted Agricultural Market Prices?, Journal of Sustainability, Issue 2, Number 4(Spring), Rio Rancho, New Mexico USA.
These days, when talking about the circular economy, they use talking points without even mentioning the pollution production problem associated with the working of the traditional market or with economic activity which it is also present in the working of circular markets or circular economic activity...See how the UN CLIMATE CHANGE PROMISE talks about a circular economy with no link to its pollution production problem nature and with no mention of the need to move one day to pollution-less economies....
" What is circular economy and why does it matter?
And this raises the question: Imagine you are the environment, can a circular pollution production solution/circularity fix the linear pollution production problem/linearity you face?
What do you think? If you think Yes, please indicate why. If you think No, please indicate why no.
Note;
This is an academic question, not a political one.
I invite you to discuss two important issues.
I invite you to think together about climate change, one of the biggest problems of our age, and artificial intelligence, one of the greatest inventions of our age.
Can we benefit from artificial intelligence in combating climate change? Can artificial intelligence contribute to the fight against climate change? Can we think about one of our biggest global problems and one of our biggest technological advances side by side? How and why?

Climate change is a big issue that has to be percolated to the student community
The Chinese Association for Science and Technology, USA (CAST-USA) is taking a bold step forward as the world faces increasingly complex challenges- from climate change to resource depletion and digital transformation. At the 32nd Anniversary Annual Conference and Global Innovation Summit 2024 in San Diego, thought leaders gathered to address these pressing issues with groundbreaking research and strategic solutions. 🌍🔧
One of the central themes discussed was the critical need for sustainable energy solutions and innovations in AI to address climate change and the global resource crisis. With keynote speakers like Nobel Laureate Dr. Kurt Wuthrich and trailblazers such as Dr. Peidong Yang and Dr. Yi Cui, the summit emphasized how semiconductor nanowires and next-gen batteries are pivotal to creating a sustainable future. However, challenges remain. How do we accelerate the adoption and scale of these technologies globally? ⚡🌿
By promoting international cooperation and leveraging cutting-edge AI technologies in partnership with global industries, this strategy is paving the way for solutions that can cross borders and impact industries worldwide. More global engagement and policy support are needed to make these innovations accessible where needed. 🌐🤝
Another major topic was the legal risks and operational barriers faced by businesses expanding overseas. Forum IV, dedicated to overseas enterprise development, delved into the critical issue of navigating complex regulatory environments—a challenge hindering the growth of global tech and sustainability ventures.
The conference also highlighted the innovative efforts of young minds, with the Innovation Pitch Competition showcasing cutting-edge ideas in biopharmaceuticals, medical devices, and AI-driven solutions. These emerging technologies hold promise, but how can we bridge the gap between research labs and real-world impact in the face of global uncertainty?
🔗 Let’s discuss how science, technology, and global strategy can come together to solve today’s urgent challenges. Join the conversation as we explore these key takeaways and the path forward for sustainable, innovation-driven solutions. 🌟
Do climate changes cause a decrease in the amount of annual rainfall in dry areas, or do they cause a change in the fluctuation of the dates and intensity of rains? as we notice an increase in cases of floods and torrential torrents in those areas? This leads to the question of the rain isolines, whether they are fixed or variable as a result of the severity of climate changes?

Book Title: Reimaging Indian Rivers for Sustainability
Book Theme: The rivers of India, vital lifelines that support agriculture, industry, and drinking water needs, are facing unprecedented challenges due to climate change and human activities of the Anthropocene. The impact of rising temperatures, altered precipitation patterns, and increasing frequency of extreme weather events is profoundly affecting the geomorphology, hydrology, ecology, and socioeconomic fabric associated with these waterways. This book project (edited volume) explores how climate change is influencing Indian rivers (impact) and outlines potential strategies for mitigation and adaptation (resilience). It also covers the impact of various human activities on the fluvial morphology, hydrology, and riverine environment. Yet, as we step further into the 21st century, these vital waterways face unprecedented challenges. Reviving and restoring fluvial ecosystems is essential for reviving the health of India's rivers. This involves rehabilitating wetlands, reforesting riparian zones, and restoring natural river channels that have been altered by human activity. The need to reimagine and revitalize India's rivers has never been more urgent. To ensure their sustainability and health, a comprehensive blueprint is essential—one that balances ecological preservation with socioeconomic development. Research initiatives from a range of academic perspectives, including geography, biology, hydrology, geomorphology, environmental sustainability, environmental science, water economy, sociology, and political geography, are required for the book project.

If the price distortions embedded in Adam Smith's traditional market model thinking are not addressed head on, the Thomas Kuhn.s paradigm evolution loop suggest that the worsening of the environmental abnormalities embedded fully in the traditional market thinking and partially in dwarf green market thinking will push the environmentally patched business as usual model towards collapse, which raises the question: Does the Thomas Kuhn's paradigm evolution loop predicts the future collapse of dwarf green markets?
I think yes, what do you think?

Differences in countries’ policies on addressing climate change and their impact on international relations.
Dear Researcher/Scientist,
I wish to explore/learn more on the ongoing changes in the Earth's climate system that may be beyond the capacity for recovery or reversal, commonly referred to as "irreversible climate change." Also published a ~prequel on this:
Sincerely,
Aman Srivastava
I wonder what specific technologies or approaches could be used and how they could effectively analyze data and design solutions.
I'm looking into climate change fake news (specifically ice melt fake news) on TikTok and YouTube, and I'm going to be gathering relevant social media posts from around COP26. Any ideas on how I might identify through the platforms the most used relevant hashtags around that time period?
Agrovoltaic energy can be a great ally in the fight against climate change, as well as an opportunity for development in rural areas
How does climate change affect weather patterns and the environment in different parts of the world?
In times of war, laws are silent.
This is a common saying in the legal field. Yet, for now, the notion of ecocide is only mentioned in the Rome Statute of the ICC in case of conflicts.
How does that make sense when current conflicts tend to demonstrate that international laws are ignored? Even human rights.
Is pushing for the extension and adoption of this notion during peace time even realistic when the context is showing a cruel lack of considerations for basic human rights?
Please let me know what you think
How can we create policies that stimulate individual behavioural change towards environmental protection without imposing a financial burden on low-income households?
In your local context, what cultural challenges are the biggest obstacles to adopting sustainable solutions and how can we overcome them?
How can businesses and communities work together to develop more efficient green economic models that create economic benefits for both parties?
How should environmental education be integrated into the primary school curriculum to foster environmental awareness among future generations?
How can modern information and communication technologies be leveraged to raise community awareness and action in mitigating the impacts of climate change?
What initiatives are needed to promote citizen participation in monitoring and reporting environmental issues in their area?
What financial support programs can be designed to encourage households and small businesses to adopt green technologies?
How can we create a global network of cooperation between cities to share knowledge, experience and resources in combating climate change?
These questions not only help to broaden the discussion, but also promote the search for innovative and effective solutions, while encouraging the participation of many different stakeholders.
I'm developing a machine learning model that requires up-to-date climate data of recent years. However, the historical period in the CMIP6 datasets typically ends in 2014.
Are there any solutions that can provide "historical" climate data extending beyond 2014?
Is it reasonable to use the "SSP 2 RCP 4.5" scenario of 2015-2023 "projection" data as "historical"?
Shifting the focus from technological solutions to climate change and focusing on the “human factor” is an important part of the overall picture of climate change mitigation efforts. In fact, technology and human behavior are not separate but complementary factors in the fight against climate change. Here are some reasons why focusing on the human factor is necessary:
1. Changing Behavior: Technology can provide tools and solutions, but their adoption and effectiveness depend largely on human behavior and choices. For example, the transition to renewable energy requires not only the availability of technology but also people’s acceptance and transformation of the energy used in their daily lives.
2. Education and Awareness: Raising awareness of environmental issues and climate change through education can motivate people to take more sustainable actions in their personal lives and communities.
3. Policies and Regulations: Policies and regulations can promote or discourage certain behaviors. For example, carbon taxes and financial incentives for sustainable solutions can encourage individuals and businesses to change their behavior.
4. Community Engagement: Involving individuals and communities in environmental decision-making can lead to more sustainable and widely accepted solutions.
5. Psychology and Culture: Each culture and geographic region has its own values and beliefs that can influence how people perceive and respond to climate change. Understanding and integrating these aspects into mitigation strategies can increase the effectiveness of environmental protection efforts.
Thus, while technology is an essential part of addressing climate change, active and conscious human participation is indispensable. A balance between technology and the human element will create a more comprehensive and effective strategy in dealing with current and future environmental challenges.
DOGMATISM or ABSURDITY or DOGMABSURDITY ?
( I invented the word "DOGMABSURDITY" for this context. )
Why have changes in the North Atlantic Oscillation increased during the 20th century? Can climate change be predicted in the future?
The North Atlantic Oscillation explains a large part of the climate variability across the North Atlantic Ocean From the east coast of North America across Europe, many studies of the North Atlantic Oscillation in extreme weather conditions in this region, especially in Winter is relevant. It has motivated a significant study of this pattern. However, an overlooked feature is how the North Atlantic Oscillation has changed over time. There is a significant increase in the variance of the pattern. The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) increased during the 20th century from 32% in 1930 to 53% at the end of the 20th century. Whether this change is due to natural variation, a forced response to climate change, or a combination thereof is not yet clear. However, we found no evidence for a forced response from the Model Comparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) set of 50 pairwise models. All of these models showed significant internal variability in the strength of the North Atlantic Oscillation, but were biased toward it. In the region, this has direct implications for both long-term and short-term forecasting where regional climate changes are extreme. The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is a pattern of variability associated with sea surface pressure over the North Atlantic Ocean with a subpolar low and subtropical high. The NAO is associated with large-scale changes in the position and intensity of both the storm track and the jet stream over the North Atlantic, and therefore plays a direct role in shaping the atmospheric transport of heat and moisture across the basin (Fasullo et al., 2020). ). It has also been shown that the NAO has a large effect on the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation and therefore the oceanic heat transfer, and this is the largest time scale of 20-30 years, which leads to changes in northern hemisphere temperatures of a few tenths. a degree (Delworth and Zeng, 2016). NAO has positive and negative. It shows significant interannual phase and changes. The positive phase of NAO shows between the two phases of pressure below the normal limit in the subpolar region and high pressure above the normal limit in the subtropics. It is often associated with a decrease in temperature and precipitation, an anomaly in southern Europe and an increase in precipitation, an anomaly in northern Europe, the effects of the NAO across the basin and the positive phase are also associated with it. Positive temperature anomaly in the eastern United States. The opposite pattern and its effects are observed during the period when the NAO is in its negative phase (Weisheimer et al., (2017). It has long been established that the NAO dominates climate variability over a large part of the Northern Hemisphere. The eastern coast of North America across Europe to the center of Russia and from the Arctic in the north to the subtropical Atlantic Ocean (Horrell et al., 2003) is one of the important components of winter variability and is related to the frequency and intensity of weather extremes. in Europe (Hilock and Goodes, 2004; Scaife et al., 2008; Fan et al., 2016). Therefore, it is necessary to understand the scale of natural variability in the NAO, how the NAO responds to changes in external forcing, and whether these If current climate models fail to account for natural variability or NAO forcing, this could lead to radical predictions of extreme climate change in Europe on time scales of decades to centuries.An index for the NAO is often identified in one of two
ways. The first approach is to calculate the normalized difference in surface pressure between the subtropical high (Azores High) and subpolar low (Icelandic Low) over the North Atlantic sector. The second approach is to perform an Empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis on sea level pressure over the North Atlantic region. An EOF analysis separates the variability in the sea level pressure into orthogonal modes, with the first mode containing the largest proportion of the variability and each subsequent mode containing progressively less. When an EOF analysis is used to calculate the NAO, the first mode indicates the NAO index, while the second and third modes usually provide the North Atlantic ridge and Scandinavian blocking patterns (Cassou et al., 2004).
Understanding the Question:
The question is asking whether the ongoing conflict in North Central Nigeria (also known as the Middle Belt) is primarily caused by adverse climatic changes or if it is driven by an expansionist agenda. Let's break down the key elements of the question:
North Central Nigeria (Middle Belt) Conflict:
This refers to the violent clashes and unrest that have been occurring in the Middle Belt region of Nigeria, an area known for its ethnic and religious diversity. The conflicts often involve farmers and herders, but other groups are also affected.
Adverse Climatic Change:
Adverse Climatic Change in this context refers to negative environmental changes such as desertification, drought, and changes in rainfall patterns. The question is probing whether these environmental challenges are the primary drivers of the conflict. For example, if herders are moving southward due to desertification in the north, leading to competition over land and resources with farmers, this would be a conflict driven by climatic change.
Expansionist Agenda:
An Expansionist Agenda suggests that the conflict might be driven by a deliberate attempt by one group to expand its territory, influence, or control over another group’s land. This could involve religious, ethnic, or political motivations, where the conflict is seen as a means of domination rather than just a reaction to environmental changes.
Purpose of the Question:
The question is designed to encourage critical thinking about the root causes of the conflict in the Middle Belt. It asks the responder to consider whether the violence is primarily a consequence of environmental factors or if it is driven by more strategic and possibly ideological goals. The question also invites exploration of the possibility that both factors might be at play, either separately or intertwined.
Contextual Consideration:
To answer the question thoroughly, one would need to consider historical, environmental, socio-political, and economic contexts. It’s important to evaluate how climate change might be exacerbating existing tensions or whether claims of an expansionist agenda are supported by evidence.
On a personal note, even though technology has attracted a lot of interest and funding to combat climate change, it is becoming more and more clear that taking care of the "Human Dimension" is just as equally important. This change acknowledges that there are social and behavioral aspects to climate change in addition to environmental ones. Understanding and changing the attitudes, actions, and social structures that contribute to climate change are essential components of placing an emphasis on the human element. Involving communities in climate action, guaranteeing fair access to resources, encouraging sustainable lifestyles, and raising public awareness are all part of it. Through the integration of social sciences and technological advancements, more resilient and effective holistic strategies can be developed. In the end, taking into account the human factor in addition to technological advancements can result in more inclusive and sustainable solutions, encouraging a social movement toward long-term environmental stewardship. However, is it possible that one of these factors may be more important than the other? Which should be accorded more cognizance, funding and research attention at this times?

What is impact of climate change on environmental sustainability ?
You will need to understand the effects of environmental factors.
How do soil microflora respond to environmental stressors like climate change, pollution, and land degradation? This question might have several answers based on each different locations with same soil analysis report so let us list them all
Is the early arrival of a migratory bird to its breeding or feeding ground an adaptation to climate change? Can we call these early arrival birds a positive match to climate change?
AI-driven technologies offer previously unheard-of capabilities to process enormous volumes of data, extract insightful knowledge and improve predictive models, according to the UN’s World Meteorological Organization (WMO). That means improved modelling and predicting climate change patterns that can help communities and authorities to draft effective adaptation and mitigation strategies.
I have observed in some cases there are large negative values of surface geopotential in Era5 and MERRA2, in most cases in regions with complex orography. Why this happens? How can i handle this?
Synthesizing water from sunlight and atmospheric components can significantly help combat climate change through innovative approaches like artificial photosynthesis and atmospheric water harvesting. These methods not only provide alternative water sources but also contribute to reducing atmospheric CO2 levels, making them valuable tools in the fight against climate change.
Public sector extension is, as usual, facing major criticism from farming community , especially while they (farmers) have to face the challenges of changing climate which is making them more vulnerable. So quality of extension under the changing scenario needs a greater review. Analysis of extension will help improve it strategically.
A crop simulation model (e.g., DSSAT, APSIM) was used to predict the long-term impacts of climate change on crop yields. The model was calibrated and validated using field experiment data and historical yield records. Future scenarios were simulated under different RCPs to evaluate potential adaptation strategies.
I know the use of these reforms in science, but what is the difference between them in terms of vocabulary and why can't they be used interchangeably?
This question seeks to explore the role of artificial intelligence in improving the prediction models for climate change impacts on agriculture. It aims to understand how AI technologies, such as machine learning and data analytics, can be utilized to analyze vast amounts of climate data, soil conditions, and crop yields to provide more accurate and timely predictions. The discussion could also cover the potential benefits of these AI-driven predictions for farmers, policymakers, and researchers in developing strategies to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change on agriculture. This topic is crucial for ensuring food security and sustainable agricultural practices in the face of changing climate conditions.
Due to the shifting ocean currents, the planet could be thrown off balance, altering the angle of rotation, and even causing the axis to shift, plunging us into chaos. In reality, it doesn't take much energy to achieve this. Indeed, it is known that the magnetic north has shifted, and possibly with it, the geographic north. If this is the case, the risk of climate change is far greater than we ever anticipated.
I think it should be studied. To make more dramatic and center attention, I have draw a picture where the North pole is located close to Monaco
Climate change is happening! We see how it impacts our built environment all around the world. People are suffering from extreme heat, cold and weather events. Especially, low-cost housing is insufficiently adapted to the climate extremes of the future!🥵🥶
🏡If you built a house, you wish it would be prepared to deal with climate change for at least the next generation. Shockingly, current housing design tools still use historical climate data (or historical weather profiles) to come up with design recommendations! Especially for low-cost housing, it remains a huge challenge to help adapt to climate change!
Tools are far too complicated for a non-specialist user!
With a background in architecture, tool development, climate change adaptation, humanitarian shelter and settlement and disaster resilience we decided WE can make a difference!
In our current study, we explore how future-proof climate classifications can be used as input for hands-on, easy-to-use design tools. We need your help to critically compare existing tools and seek for the most crucial improvements!
Please complete this 3-minute survey to evaluate which design criteria are most important for a future-proof design tool!

Volcanic ash can be used to grow crops without irigation in Lanzarote. Is there a way of artificially replicating these properties to help areas adapt to climate change where volcanoes are not present locally to provide a natural resource?
How do changes in humidity levels affect human health and agricultural productivity under climate change scenarios?
So were we wrong about acid rain in the 1980s? Can we be sure that the new story: Climate Change, Desiccated Soil, and Monocultures, is correct? Another alternative from the 1980s is the massive introduction of Glyphosate or Roundup. 1. Glyphosate, while officially classified as an antibiotic, is a non-selective herbicide. This means that it is not selective in the types of plants it kills; it can kill all plants it comes into contact with. 2. Glyphosate is also a crop desiccant which seems pertinent to the lack of soil humidity associated with the loss of all evergreens. 3. Even though it was sprayed widely in the American MidWest as a pop, persistent organic pollutants and because of the grasshopper effect, will migrate to colder climes like Canada and northern Europe.See: Why Europe and America’s dying forests could be good news https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9UprJXSVSg
Bangladesh is the largest low-lying deltas in the world. Most land is naturally inundated for 6-8 months every year. Threats of sea level rise, constant flooding and storm surges worsening the situation. Farmers are practising floating bed cultivation in some parts of the country. Department of Agricultural Extension have taken initiatives to extend the technology country-wide. is this the right adaptation strategy?

I'm doing a teaching internship, and I need to prepare a class on the topic: 'Glacial Geomorphology and Climate Change and its Landscape Changes in Brazil, focusing on Brazil - Southeast.' I believe I need to focus on the relationship between climate change and the change in geomorphological landscapes - I imagine future ones. Could you assist me in indicating materials for me to study and prepare the class?
Farmers are facing several natural disaster like cyclone, hailstorm drought, salinity etc. regularly and agriculture sector is the first victim of such catastrophes! Is there any study linking the catastrophe and farmer's vulnerability in developing nations?
How does the above items impact the goal towards net zero emissions? What might be the role of the emerging scientists, leaders and professionals for achieving sustainability in agriculture sector? What are the policy loopholes that high polluting industries are still doing the same levels of pollutions although facing sanctions against carbon emissions? What consumers can do to reduce emissions from agricultural sector: Is it by consuming low processed foods or eating less?
What are the potentials of these emerging concepts like Carbon farming, Biochar and agroforestry in achieving sustainability?
