The LA River where it meets the Pacific Ocean in Long Beach, California. This is the entry point for migrating steelhead salmon that would hope to return to their spawning grounds in the mountains above Los Angeles. This marks the start of a nearly 40 mile journey upstream, though barriers above prevent a successful migration.

This is the ultimate test to compare iPhone camera with my DSLR. It's amazing how well this came out, but still some limitations balancing the shadows of the bush on the rocks with the highlights on the mountain. I even tried to adjust this one a bit afterward, but the contrast range just wasn't there, even considering that I was shooting in RAW mode.

Air conditioning (AC) units have become an essential part of modern life, but this simple refrigeration technology has remained relatively unchanged since the 1940s. As climate change effects like rising temperatures and heat waves encourage more AC use, the increase in energy needed to cool us down could easily accelerate climate change.

Air Conditioning: Reinventing Cool Technology to Reduce Climate Change

Farmers around the world face serious challenges in growing food more effectively. Climate warming increases the risk of crop damage from insects, fungi, and bacteria. So to manage the threat farms are turning to artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and computer vision to target pests more effectively.

Coronavirus and the pandemic have made people hyper-aware of reducing their exposure to infection indoors by wearing masks, ventilating rooms, and social distancing. But a new way of using ultraviolet light to kill microbes could rapidly reduce virus particles in public spaces and help prevent future disease outbreaks.

Ultraviolet Light Could Be the Answer to Future Disease Outbreaks

Polar heatwaves in the Arctic and Antarctic have climate scientists concerned about the possibility of rapid climate breakdown. Soaring seasonal temperatures of 40 degrees Celsius above normal in Antarctica and more than 20 Celsius in the Arctic could be a sign of cataclysmic shifts in both regions.

Waste heat is a worldwide energy problem most people have probably never heard about. Every machine and power station, even renewable energy like wind and solar, creates heat that is simply lost in the atmosphere. Thankfully, scientists and engineers are devoted to capturing heat and transforming it into useful electricity.

Products made from carbon dioxide (CO2) captured from the atmosphere are part of a fast-growing trend to decarbonize nearly everything we use. Food, drink, fuel, and plastics can all be made using CO2 from the air. And recycling carbon could create a circular economy that vastly reduces pollution and waste.
