Going green isn’t just a fad, it’s a real-world applicable movement that has captured the hearts and minds of people across the globe—Hollywood being no exception. Outside the bounds of seemingly endless flashing lights and red-carpet rollouts, many celebrities now use their influence to champion eco-friendly lifestyles, inspiring millions to follow suit. No wonder the […]

The effects of climate change and global warming are increasingly visible to everyone. The devastating fires that affected Sicily this summer may be the most clear example of this. Palermo-based artist Igor Scalisi Palmintieri shows how art can be a means to raise awareness about these catastrophic events. Fires and climate change are the main […]

Our Planet has a fever. The effects of the ongoing climate change are devastating and, to some extent, can already be noticed. What might be the solutions? What can politics do? Our Planet has recently reported the warmest day, week, and month of the last 120,000 years. Several countries are on alert because of the extreme […]

Nowadays animal species are going extinct 100 times faster than in the past. Thousands of animals are on the verge of extinction due to pollution, the destruction of their habitat, and climate change. It is essential to change course, to promote biodiversity: let’s see why. How many animals are endangered? What does the word “extinction” […]

Shakespeare’s verses spoke volumes about the environment and environmentalism. William Shakespeare did not use these only because these terms hadn’t been coined as neologisms at the time but much later. However, Shakespeare did have environmentally aware views inasmuch as these blends well with our own perceptions of the environmental issues right before us in the […]

Our planet is more alive than we used to think. Besides responding to human influence, the Earth goes through its process of change. Perhaps the biggest mistake we humans made is that we thought we could own parts of our planet. However, the global climate is changing and parts of the globe that were once […]

We know, forests are one of man’s main allies to prevent global warming. Coming to cover 31% of the Earth’s land surface, the woods constitute the habitat for 75% of biodiversity. The role of forests is therefore fundamental to allow the balanced survival of the various animal and plant species on earth. At the same […]

Climate change will make some places on Earth uninhabitable within the next 30-50 years. This theory is supported by a NASA study that underlined the dangers for humans from a rise of average temperatures. If the phenomenon will continue, some places on our planet will reach climatic conditions that are incompatible with human life. Heat […]

It is known that climate change has negative and irreversible repercussions on our Planet, but how will it affect our lives? A study by the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change), entitled “Climate Change 2022: Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability“, analyzed in detail how climate change will change our lives. The negative impacts of global warming […]

Forests absorb a large amount of carbon in a way that is clearly superior to other terrestrial ecosystems. So, forests could represent a solution to mitigate climate change, which has been afflicting our planet for a long time, and to which there is still no solution. Can we really consider forests the solution or are we just […]
