Maps showing trends in global, population-weighted PM2.5 over (a) 1998-2011 and (b) 2011-2019Li et al./Washington University in St. LouisDespite the concerns surrounding climate change, a recent study reveals a positive trend in air pollution. Global data analysis indicates a reduction in exposure to fine particulate matter, a significant environmental health hazard.PM2.5, which stands for...
Credit: PixaobayA study led by Penn State reveals that rivers are experiencing more rapid warming and oxygen loss compared to oceans. The research, published in the journal Nature Climate Change, indicates that out of approximately 800 rivers studied, 87% showed warming trends, and 70% exhibited oxygen loss.According to the study, river systems, especially in...

Credit: Earth.Emissions of greenhouse gases from shallow lakes and ponds are significant, but the variations in emissions from these systems are not well understood. To address this knowledge gap, a recent study led by Cornell University examined methane and carbon dioxide emissions from 30 small lakes and ponds in temperate regions of Europe and...

Despite its minimal carbon footprint, Bangladesh bears a disproportionate burden of the consequences of climate change caused by such emissions. Nevertheless, Bangladesh is actively developing innovative methods to forecast and safeguard against...
