The US Atlantic coast has become a breeding ground for super-charged hurricanes which are likely to batter coastal communities even harder if the world remains hooked on fossil fuels, a new study found.
Global heating caused by greenhouse gas emissions from burning oil, gas and coal is the main factor contributing to increasingly severe storms and flooding affecting the American east coast over the past four decades.Rapid intensificationhas led to storms gathering strength so quickly it has become increasingly difficult to provide timely warnings and evacuation orders to residents.
The warming planet is poised to bring hurricanes that intensify quicker and, with them, a heightened risk of flooding to east coast communities which modeling…
Imagine a giant asteroid strikes the Earth a few years from now, blocking out the Sun and collapsing agriculture worldwide. We see it coming, but allattempts to redirect its trajectoryfail.
At first glance,our chances don’t look good. The planet is engulfed in flames. Dead fish carpet the rivers and canals. Farmers lose most of their livestock. After just a few days, the air begins to cool, and global average temperatures plummet. Crops fail catastrophically, and the food supply system as we know it falls apart.

Oct. 14—LA GRANDE — Waterfowl hunters in the Ladd Marsh Wildlife Area and throughout the state are urged by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife to take precautions to protect themselves and domestic bird populations from the avian flu as the fall migration season continues.
