Thawing Permafrost Releases Greenhouse Gases, Contributing to Global Warming
- Friday November 1, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Recent studies reveal alarming changes in the Arctic's permafrost, which has been a significant carbon reservoir for millennia. As temperatures rise, thawing permafrost is releasing greenhouse gases, particularly methane. This shift is changing the region from a carbon sink to a net contributor to global warming. Research indicates that emissions f...

Forests Emit Carbon Dioxide for Years After Wildfires, Study Finds
- Friday August 16, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A recent study has found that forests destroyed by wildfires continue to emit carbon dioxide (CO₂) for years after the flames die down. The research, conducted in Sweden’s boreal forests, revealed that burnt areas release CO₂ at a rate that more than doubles the amount emitted during the fire itself. These findings are particularly concerning...

Forests Are Supposed To Help Stop Climate Change. These Forests Didn't
- Saturday February 6, 2016
- World News | Chelsea Harvey, The Washington Post
Forests play a critical role in the global carbon cycle, helping to mitigate climate change by storing carbon that would otherwise end up in the atmosphere. So maintaining sustainable forest management practices that maximize the trees' ability to act as a carbon sink - for example, planting more trees than we harvest - has been recognized by activ...
