The summer 2022 brought extreme heatwaves in many places globally, and the debate has included the term "killer heat". In moist areas the high temperatures will be even harder to the human body, and the rising temperatures may make certain areas very hard to live in by the end of this century. High temperatures in combination with humid air may cause extreme heat known as wet bulb temperature, or

Solar energy stored in the form of fuel is something scientists hope could partially replace fossil fuels in the future. Researchers may have solved a long-standing problem that has hindered the development of sustainable solar fuels. If solar energy can be used more efficiently using iron-based systems, this could pave the way for cheaper solar fuels. “We can now see previously hidden mechanisms

The Polar regions play a crucial role in balancing global climate – with the poles heating up much faster than the rest of the world. Yet, climate projections for the Polar regions still have significant uncertainties. This is hampering efforts to curb climate change and deal with the effects we already see at play not only within the Polar regions, but also in Europe and the rest of the world. Po
