Arctic Winter Turns Green as Rain Replaces Snow Published: July 24, 2025 Scientists in Svalbard were stunned to find rain and greenery during their Arctic winter fieldwork, a stark sign of climate change. Typically blanketed in snow, the region experienced record-breaking warmth in January 2025, disrupting ecosystems and threatening polar bear habitats. "This is a seasonal shift with massive consequences," said climate scientist Dr. Olaf Berg. X users are sharing images of the green Arctic, calling it a "climate wake-up call." Why It Matters: These changes signal accelerating Arctic warming, with global implications for sea levels and weather patterns.

Earth’s Continents Are Drying Out at an Alarming Rate, Satellite Data Reveals

New satellite data has uncovered a worrying trend: Earth’s continents are losing moisture at an unprecedented rate, raising concerns about global water security. Researchers analyzing data from NASA’s GRACE satellites found that soil moisture levels have declined significantly across major landmasses since 2020, driven by climate change and extreme weather patterns. “This is a wake-up…
