Anthropocene | Innovation in the Human Age#ClimateScienceNews New system to classify
#AtmosphericRiver intensity. Much like the current
#hurricane classification system, atmospheric rivers will range from AR1 to AR5, with AR5 being hazardous with no benefits.

The world's atmospheric rivers now have an intensity ranking like hurricanes
Atmospheric rivers, which are long, narrow bands of water vapor, are becoming more intense and frequent with climate change. A new study demonstrates that a recently developed scale for atmospheric river intensity (akin to the hurricane scale) can be used to rank atmospheric rivers and identify hotspots of the most intense atmospheric rivers not only along the U.S. West Coast but also worldwide.

#lithium #battery technology‼️ ✴️Solid electrolyte lithium batteries✴️ are light, have a huge charge capacity, recharge quickly and are fireproof, exactly what modern
#ElectricVehicles require. However, they are subject to a mysterious short-circuiting failure. It is nothing more than mechanical stress...and now they are working on solutions.
#GoodNewsForNaturehttps://scitechdaily.com/stanford-breakthrough-paves-way-next-generation-lithium-metal-batteries-that-charge-very-quickly/ Stanford Breakthrough Paves Way Next-Generation Lithium Metal Batteries That Charge Very Quickly
New lithium metal batteries with solid electrolytes are lightweight, inflammable, pack a lot of energy, and can be recharged very quickly, but they have been slow to develop due to mysterious short-circuiting and failure. Now, researchers at Stanford University and SLAC National Accelerator Laborato
SciTechDaily#ClimateScienceNews Scientists from the
#UniversityOfAdelaide🇦🇺 have split ⚡ unfiltered⚡ seawater into
#Hydrogen and
#Oxygen. This greatly simplified process also uses a non-precious and cheap catalyst for
#Green hydrogen production. Previous attempts have required expensive pre-treatments to desalinise and filter the seawater prior to splitting in a commercial electrolyser.

Climate disinfo surges in denial, conspiracy comeback
False information about climate change flourished online over the past year, researchers say, with denialist social media posts and conspiracy theories surging after US environmental reforms and Elon Musk's Twitter takeover.

#Coal is a complete waste compared to renewable's. The energy required to create electricity from coal is a disgracing 32% efficient. The following #InfoGraphic, brought to you by our good friends at #YaleClimateConnections visualises this waste. The US 🇺🇸 now produces the same amount of electricity from renewable's with minimum waste‼️
