It’s almost Halloween, the spookiest time of the year, complete with ghosts and goblins, witches and black cats, scary stories and… climate change? Most of us have at least some small knowledge of the increasing effects of climate change on our planet—increased global temperatures, warming seas, rising seas, melting ice caps, bleaching corals, biodiversity loss, fires, floods, and more. There are, however, some spookier anomalies taking place around the world–so many, in fact, our first article on the subject screamed for a second.

Hey swrmers! Welcome back to the Hive! As our world seems to become more and more divided, it becomes clearer to us at the Hive, that the only way forward is together. So, we’re bringing it back to the Sustainable Development Goals this week.

Climate Change Adaptation Strategies

Today, we’re going to look at Climate Change Adaptation Strategies. But remember, rather than only continuing to plan and strategize our adaptation to climate change, we need to come together to minimize the changes to our climate and global warming. Innovation and systemic changes are vital to this. Research whether your local or national administrators have such plans in place and hold them accountable if they are not rigid enough–or if they don’t even have a plan–by using your vote.

While some still seem to find it difficult to believe, and claim that even science doesn’t know what’s happening, we disagree. And we’re not the only ones. Climate scientists, leaders around the world, and the people of our planet who are facing existential threats to their homes, lives, and livelihoods all understand that climate change is real. And it is happening right now.

Oceans and Carbon Sequestration

Today, we’re taking a look at the ocean and why it’s so important to sustaining human life. Off the top of our noggins, half the oxygen we breathe comes from plankton in our oceans, 15% of our global diet is from seafood, and the ocean helps to regulate our climate through carbon sequestration. Phew!

April 22nd, 2020 marks the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day! Founded by Senator Gaylord Nelson in 1970, Earth Day marks the anniversary of the birth of the modern environmental movement – a movement spawned to give voice to emerging public consciousness and concern about the state of our planet.

We love our Earth. And we know you do, too! From the mountains, to the oceans, to the jungles, to the forests, to the plains, our planet is truly amazing.

History is full of arguments about the worthiness of facts. Skeptics often don’t know any better. Sometimes they refuse to listen. Other times they are fed misinformation or outright lies that convince them of a certain argument.

Discussions on the carbon emissions produced by the United States inevitably get redirected towards China. While China as a country emits over double the total CO2 emissions than the US, there is a lot more to the
