Groundwater depletion has had a profound impact on Earth, causing a measurable shift in its axis of rotation, according to recent research. From 1993 to 2010, humans displaced more than 2 trillion tons of water by removing them from underground reservoirs, which has caused the geographic North Pole to shift approximately 4 centimeters per year.

Going to the beach is a quintessential summer activity. Unfortunately, nature doesn’t always cooperate. A phenomenon called red tide, also known as Harmful Algal Blooms (HAB), is one example of how nature can spoil your summer beach plans. In a red tide, algae grow out of control and produce toxins that are harmful to wildlife [...]
A new computer model that combines artificial intelligence (AI) and NASA satellite data could soon act as Earth’s early warning system for hazardous space storms. The model, called DAGGER, has the potential to analyze measurements of solar wind. It can then accurately (and quickly) predict where an impending solar storm will strike on Earth. This crucial notice could allow humanity [...]
During his 2020 presidential campaign, Joe Biden had a slogan: “No more drilling on federal lands, period.” This week, he reneged on that promise, green-lighting a ConocoPhillips project to clear-cut vegetation, build roads, and install more than 200 oil wells in the Western Arctic.
