2020年11月12日 · Meanwhile, climate disasters can upend lives and livelihoods, triggering climate migration, destabilizing nations and threatening national security. How ocean solutions can combat climate change The ocean can help us turn the tide and holds a portfolio of options to combat climate change.

2023年3月1日 · A photography competition by Climate Visuals seeks to raise awareness and understanding of how the climate crisis and human activity are impacting the ocean. These images from the Ocean Visuals collection explore how rising temperatures are harming marine life, and how coastal communities are working together to tackle the effects of global ...

2024年2月12日 · This includes building a complete wish list of datasets that would advance global AI solutions for climate change. Google DeepMind is working on this with Climate Change AI, a non-profit organization set up by volunteers from academia and industry who see a key role for machine learning in combating climate change.

2024年2月26日 · Climate change and rising sea temperatures are only one threat – overfishing and pollution are other known contributors to coral decline. The benthic realm may also be threatened by deep-sea mining – an activity likely to increase because of the abundance of metals found in our ocean, needed for use in electronics and electrification.

2023年11月8日 · Climate change means there could even be a 73% reduction in worldwide areas suitable for growing wine by 2050, US science journal PNAS says. 4. Much less coffee

2022年1月19日 · This means the pernicious effects of all this plastic pollution on the marine environment are particularly concerning. A plastic-choked and warming ocean will create a negative feedback loop where plant and animal life suffer, less carbon dioxide is absorbed and our ability to rein in climate change is further hampered.

2021年5月11日 · The ocean is a massive carbon sink, protecting us from the worst of climate change. But rising air temperatures are melting glaciers, while warming seas are bleaching coral. Action like coral reef restoration is already underway - and research has found some corals to be more resistant to higher temperatures.

2024年5月16日 · A fourth global coral bleaching event was confirmed in April 2024, based on sea-surface temperature data captured by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) satellites. Coral bleaching is extensive across the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Ocean basins, says the NOAA, which has been monitoring ocean temperatures since 1985.

2020年9月21日 · The effects of climate change, such as ocean warming, acidification and oxygen loss; pollution from plastic, chemicals and other human waste; and the impact of overfishing are just a few of the existential risks.

2021年5月19日 · Seagrass - which covers just 0.2% of the seabed, but accounts for 10% of the ocean’s capacity to store carbon - could play a key role in slowing climate change. It also sustains biodiversity by providing a habitat for thousands of species , like shellfish, seahorses, and turtles.
