The World’s Largest Reforestation Project

Posted on by Ronna Landau

One arm of the current climate crisis that doesn’t often make headlines is the rampant deforestation that’s taking place across the world. Planet Earth provides the perfect environment for forests to thrive, with plenty of nutrients, water, and an ozone later to project plants from the harshness of space.

But on a global scale, humanity is cutting back natural forest at an astounding rate, and it’s something that’s cause for great concern.

The Most Powerful Weapons Ever Made

Posted on by Ronna Landau

Humans are the most innovative species that the Earth has ever seen. Our invention of various technologies has allowed us to dominate the planet in every aspect, and today we are virtually in control of almost everything that happens across the world.

Part of the reason our technology has advanced so quickly in a relatively short amount of time is due to our seemingly endless desire for conflict.

Data Centres And How They Work

Posted on by Ronna Landau

Most people at home have more than a few devices that are able to connect to the internet. When a device makes a request for a website to be loaded, that information comes from a server. Servers can be home-built and only consist of a few components, but this isn’t enough to power the world’s traffic.

Instead, we rely on massive data centres, warehouse-like buildings that are packed with hundreds of servers at once, all working together to serve the general population’s internet requirements.

More and more regions around the world are suffering from water shortages. It’s believed that due to the changing climate of the planet combined with the constant draw on fresh water by most large industries, potable water will not always be as abundant as it is now.

This isn’t to say that water will simply disappear, but rather that it will be increasingly difficult for officials to provide enough water for most people.

Solar Arrays And How They’re Built

Posted on by Ronna Landau

Solar arrays are a collection of solar panels and other devices connected together with the aim of using the power of the sun to generate electricity. As the oil industry has entered a long decline, and renewable energies have skyrocketed in popularity, more and more countries around the world are adopting solar as the next big shift in generating the power necessary to keep global industries going.

The World’s Biggest Data Centres

Posted on by Ronna Landau

Almost all of the global internet traffic invariably will find itself moving through a data centre. Data centres are massive, warehouse-like structures that are packed with servers – computers that are designed to offer data and services to the users that are connecting to them. These huge centres are what powers the world’s internet, allowing for instant and global access at any time of the day.
