In this episode of the 2024 Climate Review, we focus on storms and some lesser-known atmospheric anomalies that have affected various regions of the planet.
The past year has tested humanity’s resilience, bringing not only catastrophic events with devastating consequences but also entirely new manifestations of natural forces — phenomena that specialists encountered for the first time.
Most importantly, we already know what can be done right now to confront this growing threat.
The primary driver of escalating climate disasters is the overheated ocean, which transfers energy to the atmosphere, intensifying destructive cataclysms. Some researchers warn that without intervention, the situation could lead to catastrophic consequences for all life on Earth.
To address the climate crisis, it is crucial to investigate all factors contributing to ocean heating. Additionally, the implementation of technologies that help cool the ocean must be accelerated, as this would significantly improve the planet’s climate situation.
One of the most promising solutions is atmospheric water generators, which, if widely deployed, could significantly improve global conditions within just 2–3 years. However, such efforts require international cooperation, bringing together scientists, policymakers, businesses, and the public.
This innovative approach to tackling the climate crisis was presented at COP16 in Colombia. For more details, watch the documentary "Climate Crisis and Ocean Pollution: Global Challenges and Solutions."
