Ancient China undoubtedly holds leading positions in a number of scientific fields. Other than the four great inventions including the compass, gunpowder, printing, and papermaking, Ancient China contributed many other inventions to the world. Following are some of the amazing Ancient Chinese inventions that were way ahead of their time: Paper Making 105 A.C For…
You may have heard about the phenomena of quantum computing in recent times, and wondering what is happening around, why is there a race going on in the field of research about quantum computing by different governments and companies across the world, and why people are spending billions of dollars for further development and research…
The French science community is the first to take the lead in searching and discovering nuclear power, at the end of the 19th century the French engineer, physicist Antoine Henri Becquerel was studying the fluorescence of certain bodies. The experiment was simple, Antoine Henri put a photographic plate wrapped with black paper and a uranium…
Earth has no light source on its own, and the light and radiation will be absorbed by the sun. Theyreflect a fraction of the sun’s radiation to space. Over the past two decades, Earth’s brightness is dropping significantly, as seen from space. Initially, scientists concentrated on the moon’s dark side to quantify its faint but…
Recently, scientists have invented an entirely new phylum of archaea, which was found in deep-sea hydrothermal vents in the Gulf of California and within seven hot springs of China. After several studies, researchers identified genes that produce Methane in archaea and suggested their significant role in Earth’s Carbon Cycle. Significance of Microorganisms Microorganisms are more…
On 12th December 2015, almost 200 countries have committed to climate goals, including the primary objective—“the finance flows have to be consistent with the path leading to lower Greenhouse Gas emissions and development of resilient climate systems.” Green finance instruments play a crucial role in achieving this objective by mobilizing private capital. Green bonds are…
Humans are using natural resources at an increasingly alarming rate in the modern era. The overexploitation of natural resources to suit the modern lifestyles of large masses is indeed unsustainable. Natural resources are limited, but renewable sources are not replenishing enough time. Without a doubt, we are heading towards a severe depletion of natural resources. …
A novel discovery concerning the utilization of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been set to make scientists aware of the accurate forecast of Arctic Sea ice conditions. The amazing predictions can reinforce novel early-alert systems ensuing protection of Arctic wildlife and coastal areas from the negative repercussions of melting sea ice. British Antarctic Survey and The…
Rapid climatic changes refer to long term shifts in temperature, which cause global warming. Climatic changes occur naturally or due to human activities, which worsen the natural atmosphere. Researchers predict that humans may experience a sudden rise or drift in global temperature within a short span, which will lead to significant distractions for all living…
After many vigorous struggles and constant efforts for years, researchers from the University of Cambridge have established an inspired and successful concept that can turn Carbon Dioxide into sustainable and clean fuel. The produced energy is not developed from any unwanted wastes or by-products. This concept is one of the best and certainly a novel…
