Forget chemical fertilizers; make natural fertilizer for your plants at home

Now you can easily make organic fertilizer for your plants at home.&nbsp; Watch to know more.&nbsp;

Most of us bring chemical fertilizers from the market for plants. But now you no longer need it as you can make it at home within an hour.&nbsp;
Digital content creator Armen Adamjan has shared a video on how to make organic fertilizer.
In this video, he's seen emptying a tea bag and mixing the tea with a spoonful of oats in a jar. He then pours the content in boiling water and keeps it for about an hour. After straining the water he pours it into a spray bottle and suggests planting the plants with the water once every 3 weeks.
This water is filled with nitrogen which helps plants grow faster and healthier.&nbsp;

IFS officer shares video of trees practicing social distancing; take a look!

'Crown shyness' is a phenomenon where the topmost part of trees, called the crown, do not touch each other and form gaps. Have a look at the video.

Like humans, do trees also practise social distancing? Well, it seems so. Recently, IFS officer Ramesh Pandey&nbsp; shared a video on Twitter where the topmost part of trees, called the crown, are not touching each other and are seen forming gaps.&nbsp;
In his post, he mentioned that it&rsquo;s a kind of social distancing among trees and is called 'crown shyness'.&nbsp;
However, scientists don&rsquo;t have any clear explanation behind this phenomenon but as per expert theories, trees practise it to prevent collision and to limit the spread of parasites between the trees or as a shade avoidance so that the sunlight reaches all the branches.

We all love looking at rainbows in the sky after the rains. But let us tell you that due to climate change, you'll be able to see more rainbows than ever before. This fact is claimed by a recent study led by researchers from the University of Hawaii in the United States.&nbsp;
5% more rainbows by the beginning of 2100&nbsp;
According to the study, by the beginning of the year 2100, the average condition of the Earth will see such, that 5% more rainbows a day will be visible as compared to the beginning of the 21st century.&nbsp;
Where would most rainbows be visible?&nbsp;
The study says that northern latitudes and higher altitudes, where there is a forecast of less rain and snowfall due to summer, will see a rise in the incidence of most rainbows.&nbsp;

Brahmapuram garbage fire: NGT slaps Rs 100 crore fine on Kochi corporation

The fire that broke in the mounds of garbage at the dump yard on March 2 was doused after 12 days.
&nbsp;

National Green Tribunal has imposed a fine of Rs 100 crore on the Kochi Municipal Corporation for their 'utter failure' to manage waste effectively at the Brahmapuram waste dumping yard, which led to a major fire outbreak on March 2.
Coming down heavily on Kerala authorities, the Bench blamed the State for the environmental emergency caused due to fire and directed the civic body to deposit the money with the Chief Secretary within a month for necessary remediation measures.
The NGT was hearing a matter in which it had initiated suo-motu (on its own) proceedings on the basis of a media report.&nbsp;

Droughts, wet events made more frequent, intense by global warming: NASA-led Study

NASA-led study reveals droughts, floods will become more frequent. Here's why 

The scientists also found that the worldwide intensity of these extreme wet and dry events - a metric that combines extent, duration, and severity - is closely linked to global warming.

Major droughts and pluvials - periods of excessive precipitation and water storage on land - have indeed been occurring more often, confirmed a new National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA)-led study.
Droughts and floods will become more frequent and severe as our planet warms and climate changes, scientists have predicted, but detecting this on regional and continental scales has proven difficult, the study said.
Two NASA, US, scientists examined 20 years of data from the NASA/German GRACE and GRACE-FO satellites to identify extreme wet and dry events, the study published in the journal Nature Water said.
Floods and droughts account for more than 20 per cent of the economic losses caused by extreme weather events in the US each year. The economic impacts are similar around the world, though the human toll tends to be most devastating in poor neighbourhoods and developing nations.
The scientists also found that the worldwide intensity of these extreme wet and dry events - a metric that combines extent, duration, and severity - is closely linked to global warming.
From 2015-2021 - seven of the nine warmest years in the modern record - the frequency of extreme wet and dry events was four per year, compared with three per year in the previous 13 years.
This makes sense, said the authors, because warmer air causes more moisture to evaporate from Earth's surface during dry events; warm air can also hold more moisture to fuel severe snowfall and rainfall events.
"The idea of climate change can be abstract. A couple of degrees warmer doesn't sound like much, but water cycle impacts are tangible," said Matt Rodell, study co-author at NASA.
"Global warming is going to cause more intense droughts and wet periods, which affects people, the economy, and agriculture around the world. Monitoring hydrological extremes is important for preparing for future events, mitigating their impacts, and adapting," said Rodell.

Rodell and study co-author Bailing Li studied 1,056 extreme wet and dry events from 2002 to 2021, as observed by the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and GRACE-Follow-On (GRACE-FO) satellites.
The satellites use precise measurements of Earth's gravity field to detect water storage anomalies - specifically, how the amount of water stored in soils, aquifers, lakes, rivers, snow cover, and ice compares to normal, the study said.
"It's like watching the level of the water in your bathtub.
"You can see how much it rises and falls without knowing the total amount of water in the tub," said Rodell.
Because GRACE and GRACE-FO provide a new map of water storage anomalies around the world every month, they provide a comprehensive view of the severity of hydrological events and how they evolve over time, the study said.
In their study, Rodell and Li applied an "intensity" metric that accounts for the severity, duration, and spatial extent of droughts and extreme wet events.
They found the global total intensity of extreme events increased from 2002 to 2021, mirroring Earth's rising temperatures over the same period.
According to the study, by far the most intense event identified in the study was a pluvial that began in 2019 in central Africa and is still ongoing.
It has caused the level of Lake Victoria to rise by more than one metre.
A 2015-2016 drought in Brazil was the most intense dry event of the past two decades, leading to empty reservoirs, and water rationing across some Brazilian cities, the study said.
"Both events were associated with climate variability, but the Brazilian drought occurred in the warmest year on record (2016), reflecting the impact of global warming," said Li.
"The recent southwestern US and southern Europe droughts were also some of the most intense events, in part, due to anthropogenic warming," said Li.
"Global warming has had broad and profound impacts on terrestrial water storage, such as reduction of annual snow in high elevations and depletion of groundwater by people when surface waters are scarce," Li added.
"Reflecting these changes, GRACE data provide us a unique perspective of how hydrological extremes have been changing around the world," said Li.&nbsp;

Mumbai temp hits 39.4 degrees Celsius, highest in country for second time in March: IMD

The Santacruz observatory and the Colaba observatory recorded a temperature of 39.4 degrees Celsius and 35.8 degrees Celsius, respectively, on Sunday.

For the second time in the current month, Mumbai recorded the highest maximum temperature in the country at 39.4 degrees Celsius on Sunday, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said, attributing the rise in mercury to absent or delayed wind breeze.
The IMD had warned of a heat wave for Sunday and Monday.
The Santacruz observatory and the Colaba observatory recorded a temperature of 39.4 degrees Celsius and 35.8 degrees Celsius, respectively, on Sunday.
"This is for the second time this month that Mumbai has recorded the highest maximum temperature in the country. On March 6, Santacruz (observatory) recorded 39.1 degrees Celsius, also the highest in the country. On Sunday, it recorded 39.4 degrees Celsius," said IMD scientist Rajendra Jenamani.
He said the temperature recorded in the coastal Konkan region, which encompasses Mumbai, was 4-6 degrees Celsius above normal on March 12.
This was also observed between March 5-7 when the temperature was 5-7 degrees above normal, Jenamani added.
"Normally, Konkan witnesses low temperatures during this time because of the sea breeze at around 11.30 am to 1 pm. However, in the last seven-ten days the sea breeze is absent or delayed because of the dominant easterly winds which have resulted in high temperatures," he said, adding that the temperature should reach highest between Rajasthan and Gujarat but it is controlled due to thunderstorm cloud and favourable wind.

Oscars: Congress attacks Modi govt, cites 'The Elephant Whisperers' win to slam Wild Life Act amendments

'The Elephant Whisperers' created history at the 95th Academy Awards by becoming the first Indian production to win the Documentary Short Film award.

The Congress party used the Oscar win of 'The Elephant Whisperers' documentary to attack the Narendra Modi government on 13 March 2023.
Former Union minister Jairam Ramesh said that it was "wonderful" that the Tamil film won an Oscar, and this might force the Modi administration to drop "elephant-unfriendly" amendments to the Wild Life Protection Act, which have been "widely opposed".
In 2010 the elephant had been declared the national heritage animal, the Congress general secretary noted. Ramesh had opposed many provisions of the Wildlife (Protection) Amendment Bill, 2022, when it was passed in the Rajya Sabha in December last year. PTI ASK DV DV

Bangkok residents suffer due to poor air quality, thousands sick

The public health ministry said 50 districts in Bangkok on March 08 recorded unsafe levels of the most dangerous PM2.5 particles

As pollution reached dangerously high levels in Bangkok this week, nearly 200,000 residents were admitted to hospitals, according to the public health ministry.&nbsp;
For the past few days, the Thai capital, home to over 11 million, has been shrouded in a yellow-grey mix of vehicle fumes, industrial emissions and smoke from agricultural burning.&nbsp;
The public health ministry said 50 districts in Bangkok on March 08 recorded unsafe levels of the most dangerous PM2.5 particles -- so tiny they can enter the bloodstream -- while the following day they remained well above World Health Organization guidelines.
PM2.5 levels have been above safe limits for most of Bangkok since March 06, according to the government's pollution control department.
A doctor at public health ministry urged children and pregnant women to stay indoors on March 08 while adding that any individual stepping outside should wear a high-quality N95 anti-pollution mask.&nbsp;
During another pollution peak in late January and early February, city authorities had urged people to work from home.
A spokesman for Bangkok governor Chadchart Sittipunt -- elected last year with promises to improve the city's environment -- said they would not hesitate to issue another similar order if the situation got worse.

As the global temperature has increased in recent years, pollen allergy season has grown more intense and will continue to do so according to research. 

Allergy season came earlier this year, thanks to climate change

As the global temperature has increased in recent years, pollen allergy season has grown more intense and will continue to do so according to research.&nbsp;

A study published in Nature Communications found that pollen allergy season could start up to 40 days earlier and last 19 days longer by the year 2100 due to climate change.
The rising global temperatures are responsible for seasonal allergies causing trees, weeds and grasses to go through early pollination. The study also states that annual pollen emissions will increase by 40% due to weather changes but will drastically rise to 250% if carbon dioxide and other harmful gases from ignition of coal, gasoline and natural gases are continued to be produced at current rates.
A recent report from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration noted that countries globally experienced record-breaking warm temperatures last month as the average temperatures rose 2.7 degrees above the 20th-century standard.
