We’ve been hearing a lot lately about geoengineering – the various scientific theories and governance ideas that could eventually lead to technological interventions to help cool the planet. Take this recent CNN story titled “Supporters of a controversial climate solution say it could be key. Anyone can float a balloon.

If cooling your house gets cheaper because you’re more energy efficiency, you might decide you can afford to keep your house even cooler. Energy efficiency means using less energy to produce the same goods or services (such as driving your car or heating your house). That can mean a decrease in your total energy use, but not necessarily.

While the main focus has been on operational activities in Antarctica, global warming caused by fossil-fuel burning by these (and other) countries has left Antarctica on the brink of irreversible change. For example, Antarctica acts to cool our planet by reflecting solar radiation back to space by virtue of the brightness of its snow surface.

Today, it overlaps with many other sciences and has had a profound impact on the environmental sciences just as chemistry has. It also underpins the physical sciences by providing the theoretical framework on which it may base its own assumptions and basic theoretical models. How Physics Applies to Environmental Science.

I have heard countless arguments over whether and how solar geoengineering could be useful in the struggle to manage climate change. I have seen deeply misleading claims by both its supporters and detractors, many trying to coopt the issues and victims of climate injustice to their case.

This post is an introduction to methane in climate change: where it comes from, how it’s different from CO 2 , how those differences matter, and what that all means for controls. In the early days of the climate issue, when discussions were mainly scientific, normal practice was to measure CO 2. Rice farm, Williams, California.

There may also be an extreme variation between warm and cool seasons, including extreme winds and storms due to the mixing of cold and warm air. Kangaroos, for example, which live in the hot desert climate of Australia are warm-blooded mammals and must find shelter during the hottest part of the day to avoid overheating.
