This is up from 1.07°C between 2010 and 2019. Human-induced warming is now increasing at a pace of over 0.2°C per decade. The analysis also found that greenhouse gas emissions were 'at an all-time high', with human activity resulting in the equivalent of 54 (+/-5.3) gigatonnes (or billion metric tonnes) of carbon dioxide being released into the atmosphere on average every year over the last decade (2012-2021). Given the speed at which the global climate system is changing, the scientists argue that policymakers, climate negotiators and civil society groups need to have access to up-to-date and robust scientific evidence on which to base decisions.]]> Thu, 08 Jun 2023 18:10:13 +0200 https://api.follow.it/track-rss-story-click/v3/eePbbD1UY3dZ_8F3Y_TjJeT5HJgy6HUf https://api.follow.it/track-rss-story-click/v3/eePbbD1UY3dZ_8F3Y_TjJSejEQ2Mq9rY The Daitari greenstone belt shares a similar geologic make-up when compared to the greenstones exposed in the Barberton and Nondweni areas of South Africa and those from the Pilbara Craton of north-western Australia.]]> Thu, 08 Jun 2023 18:09:50 +0200 https://api.follow.it/track-rss-story-click/v3/eePbbD1UY3dZ_8F3Y_TjJSejEQ2Mq9rY https://api.follow.it/track-rss-story-click/v3/eePbbD1UY3dZ_8F3Y_TjJZVjH6qdYdAk Astronomers have clearly identified the existence of four new exoplanets.

Researchers report that two-spot octopuses adapt to seasonal temperature shifts by producing different neural proteins under warm versus cool conditions. The octopuses achieve this by editing their RNA, the messenger molecule between DNA and proteins. This rewiring likely protects their brains, and the researchers suspect that this unusual strategy is used widely amongst octopuses and squid.]]> Thu, 08 Jun 2023 18:09:15 +0200 https://api.follow.it/track-rss-story-click/v3/eePbbD1UY3dN2aiPrMBwYCejEQ2Mq9rY https://api.follow.it/track-rss-story-click/v3/eePbbD1UY3dN2aiPrMBwYJVjH6qdYdAk Poems, essays and even books -- is there anything the OpenAI platform ChatGPT can't handle?

But instead of trying to line up the edges or the cells of both lattices, give the top grid a twist so that you can see portions of the lower one through it.
