Renewable Energy's Future is Threatened By Global Warming. In spite of what common sense may tell us, solar energy and climate change are not good partners. By Roberto R. Diaz Blanco   A recent study published in Nature illustrates how global warming is diminishing solar irradiation—or, in layman's terms, sunny days—exactly in the places on the earth where photovoltaic output is currently highest. As a result, climate change has a detrimental impact on solar energy output on a worldwide scale, and will continue to do so in the near future. Another recent study has backed up these findings, showing how, in the instance of Australia, local solar and wind energy production has declined in recent decades. The true significance of both studies is that they focus on a larger issue: transitioning to renewable energies is one of the keys to mitigating and minimizing climate change; however, it's possible that before that happens, global warming will cause critical changes in atmosp

6 Denialist Arguments About Climate Change That You Should Clarify As political leaders around the world discuss the agreements needed to reduce the volume of greenhouse gasses, there is a problem that has been little talked about: misinformation about climate change. By Roberto R. Díaz Blanco It is not just the climate change denial conspiracy theories that circulate through messaging applications where they have found their very convenient echo chambers. The British newspaper The Guardian recently exposed how Fox Weather, the Fox network channel dedicated to information about the climate, constantly misinforms in its reports: it does not mention the increase in the temperature of the planet as a cause associated with tornadoes , hurricanes, floods, forest fires and snowfalls that frequently affect different regions of the world. Misinformation about climate change can be even stickier than anti-vaccination demonstrations against COVID-19 in the streets. According to a study by Arizon
