Veille 2.1

En marge de l'Assemblée générale des Nations unies, le maire de Londres, Sadiq Khan, s'est inquiété des conséquences du changement climatique dans la capitale britannique.

Selon les derniers travaux du Giec, si tous les Etats du monde n’accentuent pas leurs efforts, le réchauffement climatique sera compris entre +2,8°C et +3,2°C en 2100 en moyenne au niveau mondial, ce qui correspond à +4°C pour la France. Mais alors, à quoi ressemblerait le pays avec une telle hausse des températures ?

New Jersey public school students will be the first in the country required to learn about climate change while in the classroom starting this school year. "Climate change is becoming a real reality," New Jersey first lady Tammy Murphy, who spearheaded the initiative, told "ABC News Live" on Thursday. The new standards were adopted by the state's board of education in 2020, but because of the pandemic, the roll out was halted, giving educators and districts more time to prepare the lesson plans for all students in grades K-12.

The ground, typically moist from snow this time of year, was dry and flammable as a result of unusually warm temperatures and a lack of precipitation in recent months, experts said.

Stability in Earth's climate hinges on a delicate balance between the amount of energy the planet absorbs from the sun and the amount of energy Earth emits back into space. But that equilibrium has been thrown off in recent years — and the imbalance is growing, according to a paper published Wednesday in the journal Nature Communications.
