有时，我们需要加拿大四月的一场冰风暴才能真正意识到全球变暖的影响。 科学家发现，北极——“气候变化的前线”——的升温速度是世界其他地区的四倍。这在很大程度上与所谓的 “北极放大” 现象（即海冰的消失）有关。 北极冰盖缩小 北冰洋大部分覆盖着一层波光粼粼的海冰。但随着地球变暖，海冰开始消散，暴露出更多的海洋表面，使热量从温暖的海水中释放到寒冷的大气中。随着越来越多的冰从海洋中消失，北极的温度上升得越来越快，这反过来又使海冰容易进一步融化。 来自国家冰雪数据中心（NSIDC）的临时数据显示，今年北极海冰冬季峰值已达到有记录以来的第五低。 北极海冰的范围在一年中都在变化——在冬季增长，在二月或三月达到全年的峰值，然后在整个春季和夏季融化，达到全年的最低值，通常在九月左右。 利用卫星数据，科学家可以跟踪海冰的生长和融化，从而确定冰盖冬季最大范围的大小，以此来监测北极的 “健康” 程度。 根据 NSIDC […]

The modernization and electrification of our global transportation system will require a change hitherto unprecedented in the history of civilization. Not even the shift from horse and buggy to the crank-start Ford Model T can compete with what it will take to electrify the billion-plus cars on the planet’s roads, and eventually put a complete stop to noxious tailpipe emissions resulting from the combustion of gasoline and diesel fuel, that are poisoning the air we breathe.
For now, thorium is a theoretical solution to our energy dilemma, but it could be much more than that. A concerted effort to develop thorium reactor technology could provide stable, clean, base-load power for millions, something that is not possible with renewables due to the intermittency factor and the current early stages of renewable battery storage technology. It is safer and better for the environment than uranium and can even use radioactive waste as feedstock for the nuclear reaction, thus killing two birds with one stone. The market is not yet ready for thorium, but when it is, a whole new mining sector and supply chain will be born.
