Tidal Power

• Tidal power is a promising renewable energy source, but production costs, a limited number of suitable locations, and technological challenges hinder its expansion.

How do hurricanes affect marine life - both coastal & ocean life?

• Hurricanes can radically affect marine ecosystems, changing seafloor habitats as well as levels of oxygen, salinity, and pollution in the water.

carbon offsets

• Offset sellers make it easy to compare prices across projects—but you should also make sure you can trust that your purchase is really keeping carbon out of the air.

CO2 Emissions & Oxygen Concentrations

• Oxygen levels are declining due to the burning of fossil fuels and other kinds of pollution. While the decline won’t directly affect humans in terms of the air we breathe, certain ecosystems are much more impacted, especially aquatic ones.

How much CO2 is emitted from MANUFACTURING Lithium-ion batteries?

• It depends exactly where and how the battery is made—but when it comes to clean technologies like electric cars and solar power, even the dirtiest batteries emit less CO2 than using no battery at all.

when scientists say the Earth has warmed by 1 degree CELSIUS, what parts of the planet are being measured?

• The parts of the planet being measured are our land and ocean surfaces: what we call global average surface temperatures.
