nbcnews.com/science/environment/europe-fastest-warming-continent-twice-global-average-report-rcna148829

Quick Glance: Europe Leads in Climate Change, Urgent Need for Renewable Energy

Europe is the fastest-warming continent, with temperatures rising about twice as fast as the global average, according to a joint report by top climate monitoring organizations.

The continent generated 43% of its electricity from renewables last year, surpassing fossil fuels for the second consecutive year, highlighting the need for targeted strategies to transition to renewable resources.

Temperatures in Europe are now 2.3 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, nearing the goals of the Paris climate accord to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, impacting human health with increased deaths related to extreme climate events.

The report emphasizes the urgent need for action as heatwaves, wildfires, and other extreme weather events have led to significant economic losses and human casualties across the continent.

Quick Glance: Global Coral Bleaching Event After Extreme Heat

US climate agency NOAA declares a concerning global coral bleaching event for the fourth time in history after a year of extreme ocean heat.

Impacts of coral bleaching span oceans worldwide, with sea surface temperatures at record levels.

Corals under extreme heat stress can recover, but otherwise, the reef requires several years to regenerate.

Despite losses, some reefs show signs of color, offering hope for potential recovery, while scientists caution about the escalating impacts.

abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/climate-change-bringing-malaria-new-areas-africa-left-109606978

Quick Glance: Combatting Malaria: Challenges and Solutions

Progress in reducing malaria has stalled in recent years, especially in African regions. Pregnant women, young children, and other vulnerable groups continue to have limited access to malaria services.

Infants and young children are disproportionately affected by malaria, especially in poorer households in sub-Saharan Africa. Pregnant women are at increased risk of malaria due to immunity loss.

Refugees, migrants, and indigenous peoples are also at higher risk of malaria and often lack access to necessary services.

Climate change and humanitarian emergencies contribute to making vulnerable populations more susceptible to malaria. Measures like combating discrimination and integrating malaria control interventions into universal health coverage can help achieve a malaria-free world.

Quick Glance: New EPA Rules Target Emissions Reduction at Power Plants

The Biden administration aims to compel coal-fired power plants to capture smokestack emissions or close down.

The rules target limiting greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel power plants and reducing toxic pollutants from coal-fired plants.

The plan includes measures to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, toxic wastewater pollutants, and safely manage coal ash.

The actions are expected to face opposition from industry groups and Republican-leaning states, while environmental groups see it as a crucial step in combating climate change.

How Cloud Seeding Works and Why It’s Wrongly Blamed for Floods From Dubai to California

Quick Glance: Cause of Dubai Flooding: Cloud Seeding or Natural Phenomenon?

Dubai grapples with the aftermath of heavy rainfall. Speculations on the role of cloud seeding are being discussed.

Clouds consist of tiny water droplets that coalesce around particles to form rain. Cloud seeding manipulates this process.

The effectiveness of cloud seeding is scientifically debated, with limited evidence of its efficacy.

Experts refute the claim that cloud seeding was the primary cause of the flooding in Dubai.
