Dear readers,
Acting now on climate change will prevent its worst impacts later this century. As North America swelters beneath a heat dome, 15 million Asian cities may be impacted by rising sea levels by 2030. According to experts while India may experience flash floods as a result of heavy rains this month, another study finds such occurrences are rare. Thunderstorms are also being used by scientists to forecast climate change.
South Africa is on track to become the world leader in zero-carbon shipping fuel. Switching to renewables, according to research, can save energy operators’ costs while also saving the environment. As the Antarctica Treaty approaches its 60th anniversary, the issue of whether it is still fit for purpose arises. Ghana successfully planted 5 million trees in a single day. And, solar irrigation has been discovered to have the potential to transform Indian agriculture.
CSE’s recently launched book Climate Change: Science and Politics can be bought online from the CSE store, and the e-book - State of India’s Environment 2021: In Figures is available on the DTE website. |
