When global temperatures rise, they give more heat energy to the atmosphere. This in turn can make droughts and wildfires worse and lead to flooding when it rains. Scientists are studying how these extreme events may be linked to climate change. To understand this emerging field, Carbon Brief has mapped every attribution study on the […]

Weather occurs in three layers of the earth’s atmosphere: the Troposphere, Mesosphere, and Exosphere. The sun’s energy breaks atoms into positively charged ions. These ions are a component of clouds and precipitation. The energy from the sun also breaks up atoms into positive ions. This energy breaks up atoms into positively charged ions, which are […]
In addition to fuels, biofuels are renewable resources and the production of these renewable energy sources is a way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Many benefits of biofuels are not well known, but they can help the environment in several ways. For example, biofuels are used in vehicles to produce electricity. In addition to being […]
