Wolverines Threatened With Extinction Receive Federal Protection

Wolverines Threatened With Extinction , Receive Federal Protection. On November 29, the Biden administration released a proposal to give the North American wolverine long-delayed federal protections. ABC News reports that the proposal comes following warnings by scientists that climate change is likely to destroy the rare species' snowy mountain habitat. By the early 1900s, wolverines had been mostly wiped out across the U.S. as a result of unregulated hunting and poisoning campaigns. An estimated 300 surviving wolverines continue to live in the contiguous U.S. in isolated groups at high elevations in the northern Rocky Mountains. Increasing temperatures are expected to reduce the mountain snowpack, which wolverines rely on to birth and raise their cubs. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's decision to protect wolverines comes after over two decades of debate regarding threats to the species' long-term survival. According to officials, the new protections are , “due primarily to the ongoing and increasing impacts of climate change and associated habitat degradation and fragmentation.”. ABC reports that wolverines, which resemble small bears, are the world's largest species of terrestrial weasels. A 2020 lawsuit against the Fish and Wildlife Service claimed that wolverines face extinction due to a combination of climate change, habitat loss and low genetic diversity. . Scientists have suggested that some of the species' losses could be offset if wolverines are allowed to recolonize in areas like California's Sierra Nevada

Astronomers Discover Rare 6-Planet Solar System Moving in Perfect Harmony [Video]

Astronomers Discover Rare 6-Planet Solar System Moving in Perfect Harmony

Astronomers Discover Rare , 6-Planet Solar System , Moving in Perfect Harmony. On November 29, astronomers announced they have observed a rare solar system with six planets moving in sync, untouched by external forces since its cosmic birth. NBC reports that the find, located 100 light-years away in the constellation Coma Berenices, could help explain how solar systems form. . The observations were made by NASA's Tess and the European Space Agency's Cheops, planet-hunting satellites. While the planets are moving in perfectly synchronized orbits, none of them are within their star's habitable zone, meaning they likely do not host life. NBC reports that the solar system around the star, named HD 110067, may be home to even more planets. The six observed planets around HD 110067 are approximately two to three times larger than Earth, with densities closer to our solar system's gas giants. The in-sync planets' orbits range from nine to 54 days, at a distance closer to their star than Venus orbits our sun, meaning they are incredibly hot. The planet closest to HD 110067 has an orbit three times faster than its closest neighbor. Scientists estimate that only one-in-100 solar systems have retained synchronicity since coming into being. . Astronomers believe that giant planets, meteor bombardments and close encounters with nearby stars all contribute to altering the paths of solar systems.

Future of Fossil Fuel Industry , Takes Center Stage at , COP28 Climate Talks. From November 30 to December 12, the United Nations will hold its annual climate summit, convening delegates from almost 200 countries in Dubai. NBC reports that conference host and OPEC member the UAE will look to promote its vision of a low-carbon future that continues to rely on fossil fuels. . Countries remain divided over phasing out fossil fuels or scaling up technologies like carbon capture. . The summit comes as the planet is on track to break "another record for the hottest year in 2023," NBC reports. The high-stakes climate summit also comes on the heels of reports confirming that countries' current efforts to meet climate pledges are not enough to minimize the impact of global warming. Ahead of the conference, the International Energy Agency released a report, calling the idea of widespread carbon capture an "illusion.". The West's energy watchdog said the fossil fuel industry needs to decide whether to help the world transition to clean energy or allow the impending climate crisis to worsen. In response, OPEC issued a statement accusing the IEA of painting oil producers as villains. This presents an extremely narrow framing of the challenges before us, and perhaps expediently plays down such issues as energy security, energy access and energy affordability, OPEC statement, via NBC. NBC reports that greenhouse gas emissions from the burning of fossil fuels remain the leading cause of climate change.
