The probability is very high! Rare "triple" La Niña or early winter, the winter of 2022 will be very cold?
In recent years we have also heard a lot about La Niña and the effects of global climate change. In 2022, the NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) Climate Prediction Center provides a more comprehensive analysis of La Niña during the summer months.

Attention has been paid to the air quality and climate benefit strategy of China's "power transmission from west to east" strategy.
In response to China's strategy of "power transmission from west to east", Environmental Research KuaiBao (Environmental Research Letters) published an article entitled "Air quality and Climate benefits of long-distance Transmission in China" (Air Quality and Climate Benefits of Long-Distance Electricity Transmission in China) on June 13, 2017, studying the deployment strategies to solve the two major problems of air pollution and carbon emissions. It is proposed that long-distance transmission planning with the introduction of renewable energy is very important to maximize air quality and global climate benefits. This paper collates the core viewpoints of this study for reference.

Carbon pricing: the general trend of future climate action
one? Countries and regions are making progress So far, more than 40 countries and 24 areas under national jurisdiction have implemented or plan to implement carbon pricing. These carbon pricing schemes cover 7 Gt CO2e of greenhouse gas emissions, accounting for about 13 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions each year. About 2x3 have implemented a cap-and-trade scheme for emissions, and about 1x3 have implemented a carbon tax on emissions; about 1Accord 4's jurisdiction has implemented cap-and-trade schemes and carbon taxes for carbon pricing.

How does weather affect human mental health?
Credit: Shutterstock Hurricane Harvey is now the largest rainfall event in US history. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly 50% of homes in Houston are flooded and over 30,000 people in the Greater Houston area are in emergency shelters. Hundreds of thousands more are seeking higher ground. Thousands have been rescued by volunteer organizations and by the US Coast Guard, but thousands more are expected to be left stranded.

The Earth is now 40 to 50 degrees hot! The sun has "spewed fire" 36 times in 2 weeks, do they have anything to do with each other?
As the natural environment continues to deteriorate, the climate is becoming progressively more chaotic, with heat and severe cold appearing to be anomalous in both winter and summer.

Environmental Pollution
Human activities have led to immense water pollution and especially in the oceans. When you walk along the beaches, you will see a lot of foreign materials such as plastic bottles, polyethylene bags, pieces of old clothes, and many more washed by the waters to the shores.

IRENA: accelerating the Transformation of Energy Industry through Renewable Energy
one? Accelerate the transformation of renewable energy by strengthening political commitment (I) change policies in the light of past experiences and lessons, adapt them to the changing market environment in a timely manner, and ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of policies. When designing an auction mechanism, decision makers need to make a tradeoff between price reduction and other policy objectives.

EC: European Energy Union goals make good progress
(1) the overall trend. 1 the EU as a whole continues to make good progress in achieving the goals of the Energy Alliance, especially the energy and climate targets for 2020. In 2015, EU greenhouse gas emissions were 22% lower than in 1990, and emissions from industries covered by the European Energy Union's carbon emissions trading system (ETS) continued to decline. Based on 2014 data, EU renewable energy accounts for 16 per cent of total energy consumption. (2) the European Union has successfully decoupled its economic growth from greenhouse gas emissions. Between 1990 and 2015, EU gross domestic product (GDP) grew by 50 per cent, while emissions decreased by 22 per cent. According to the current trend forecast, the trend of decoupling between economic growth and greenhouse gas emissions will continue. (3) the EU has significantly reduced the intensity of greenhouse gas emissions. The European Union is currently one of the most economically efficient economies in greenhouse gas emissions and has become the most economically efficient country in the Group of 20 leading economies by setting climate and energy targets for 2030.
