Computers That Power Self-Driving Cars Could Be a Huge Driver of Global Carbon Emissions
Jan. 12, 2023 A new model quantifies emissions that will be generated by computers on fully autonomous vehicles. If self-driving cars are widely adopted, their emissions will rival those generated by all the data …
Significant Reductions in Global Greenhouse Gas Emissions Still Possible
Jan. 11, 2023 About a quarter of the world’s electricity currently comes from power plants fired by natural gas. These contribute significantly to global greenhouse gas emissions (amounting to 10% of …
Study Offers Most Detailed Glimpse Yet of Planet’s Last 11,000 Summers and Winters
Jan. 11, 2023 An international team of collaborators have revealed the most detailed look yet at the planet’s recent climactic history, including summer and winter temperatures dating back 11,000 years to the …
EV Transition Will Benefit Most US Vehicle Owners, but Lowest-Income Americans Could Get Left Behind
Jan. 11, 2023 More than 90% of vehicle-owning households in the United States would see a reduction in the percentage of income spent on transportation energy — the gasoline or electricity that powers their cars, …
Exotic Wheat DNA Helps Breed ‘Climate-Proof’ Crops
Jan. 10, 2023 Wheat containing exotic DNA from wild relatives benefits from up to 50 per cent higher yields in hot weather compared with elite lines lacking these …

Jan. 6, 2023 Scientists have developed a machine learning approach to accurately predict potentially harmful amine emissions from carbon-capturing …
Source link Global warming research and news has come a long way since its initial discovery in the late 19th century. In the past few decades, the field of study has seen a wealth of advances and groundbreaking discoveries that have enabled greater understanding of the ways in which climate is affected and in turn, how human activities affect the global climate.
ScienceDaily, a leading science and technology news publication, provides frequent updates about global warming topics and events. In the past few months, the news site has covered a wide range of topics related to the effects of increased greenhouse gas emissions and global warming, such as melting ice caps, rising sea levels, and extreme weather events.
The most recent news coverage has focused on the increase in global temperatures due to the buildup of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide and methane, in the atmosphere. ScienceDaily has reported extensively on the many climate-related events that have taken place in the last year, including various scientific studies and papers, as well as the recent reports by the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
In addition to covering current international events, ScienceDaily has also covered the global warming effects on local and regional ecosystems, as well as the global consequences of environmental damage. Its news coverage includes, for example, articles on the impacts of rising sea levels, increased ocean acidification, and the effects of climate change on food, water, and air quality.
Through its extensive and up-to-date news coverage, ScienceDaily has provided important insight into the current state of global warming and its effects.
