Description

The plight of polar bears and penguins in the warming world of the Arctic and Antarctic frames where planet earth is headed. We're in a collision course with Climate Change. The Union of Concerned Scientists warn if CO2, methane and nitrous oxide emissions aren't cut by 80% by 2050, the results for life on earth will be disastrous. As of now, those emissions are expected to triple. We're already seeing severe weather, rising water levels, disease outbreaks and environmental stress on humans, animals and plants. In Important Innovations: Collection - Environment, Climate Change and Global Warming, we showcase the latest and most impactful innovations addressing global warming and the latest science on Climate Change. The innovations include new NASA, Chinese and European high precision satellites tracking, measuring and detailing climate change, the winds, weather, atmosphere, ice melt and the oceans. The innovations include a common house plant, treated with a dash of rabbit DNA, that can eliminate indoor air pollution inside your house. We detail new innovation that turns plastics into green, environmentally friendly materials. The book includes Dell Computer's program to convert dumped ocean plastic into PC's. MIT scientists are turning desert air into water. Saudi Arabia is cutting air pollution with innovative honeycomb structures. China is building vertical forest buildings - buildings loaded with thousands of trees and shrubs to increase oxygen and decrease carbon dioxide in the air. The book includes Harvard University's solar geoengineering program to cool the planet. We detail DARPA's ambitious distributed sensor network to monitor global oceans, most of which have been totally unmonitored. We include an innovative initiative of providing bees with tiny backpacks, equipped with sensors, to monitor the environment. Also, detailed is an innovative e-Waste program in Togo, Africa to convert global electronic waste into new electronics and much more. In short, the book provides fascinating news briefs on the latest and most impactful innovations targeting Climate Change and global warming and the latest science tracking it.
