El Nino: From a layman’s point of view


There are some scientific and technical terms which can be explained from a layman’s point of view. Why do we go to a beach? It’s because after a hot day we go out to a beach for some fresh air, nature and enjoy seeing the waves. But, on a hot summer day or during midday do we see people going to the beach? Not really because they will miss out on all the reasons for going to a beach.

El Nino is something that will heat up the oceans and therefore raise the temperatures on land and it varies from place to place depending upon the geographical location of the place you are speaking about. We are hearing lots and lots about climate change, climate effect on the ozone layers above us in the sky which acts as a natural cover for us on earth from the effects of radiation.

Without having to go into much detail about radiation from a layman’s point of view an excess exposure to radiation can give us many problems from our health, to climate change and likely to affect our forests, oceans fauna and flora. We also know of dinosaurs which once inhabited our planet and now are extinct. In the same way we might also lose many of our ocean and land plants and animals. Tomorrow there might the giraffe becoming an extinct species and we might not see a giraffe again. This is how we can put in layman’s terms how climate change can affect our health and also other living organisms in our ecosystems living with us. Would you wish a shark or a whale, lion and tiger or a giraffe going extinct? All this comes into effect when we ignore to take care of our planet and the extreme case of it being El Nino a term used by scientists to an extreme effect of climate changes affecting our planet. This is a natural cause and we can prevent or slow this process of climate change by taking care of our planet and our environment.

The next time anyone says or you hear about climate change remember you have the power and it is in your hands to change it from happening.

The Rust Shooting Incident: Misconceptions and Facts

The wrongful confinement of Alec Baldwin for three years in relation to the "Rust" shooting incident starkly illustrates the issues plaguing the U.S. judicial system today. Baldwin's case, which stemmed from an on-set accident resulting in the tragic death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, highlighted significant flaws in the legal process. Firstly, the prolonged detention of Baldwin, despite the absence of substantial evidence proving criminal intent, underscores the tendency of the judicial system to prioritize punitive measures over a fair assessment of individual circumstances. Baldwin's role as an actor and producer should have been carefully scrutinized to distinguish between negligence and criminal liability. However, his extended confinement suggests a rush to judgment and a failure to uphold the presumption of innocence. Secondly, this case reveals systemic inefficiencies and bureaucratic delays within the court system. A three-year detention period before ...

Mortimer: The story of Walt Disney’s Mortimer’s flop and success

In the early 1960s, Walt Disney was at the peak of his success. His animation studio had produced some of the most beloved and iconic characters in history, including Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Goofy. But as the years went by, Disney began to feel that his studio had grown stagnant. He wanted to create something new, something that would challenge his animators and captivate audiences in a way that his previous works had not. That's when Disney stumbled upon a character that would change the course of his studio's history. His name was Mortimer, and he was a mischievous little boy with a shock of curly brown hair and a devilish grin. Disney was immediately taken with Mortimer's potential, and he knew that he had found something special. But there was a problem. Mortimer was not the kind of character that Disney's audience was used to seeing. He was too wild, too unpredictable. Disney's wife, Lillian, was particularly opposed to Mortimer, and she urged her hu...

Ukraine’s Soldiers at the Front: Battling in the Deadliest Conflict Zones

As the war in Ukraine continues to rage, certain front lines have become synonymous with extreme danger and unrelenting violence. The soldiers on these battlefields face some of the fiercest fighting in the entire war, making their stations among the most dangerous places to be in Ukraine’s ongoing defense against Russian forces. One of these deadly front lines lies in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions, part of the broader Donbas, a war-torn zone that has been at the epicenter of conflict since 2014. This area remains a strategic focus for both sides, as Russian-backed separatists seek to solidify their territorial claims, and Ukrainian forces fight for control over key cities and towns that would provide them with a vital military and logistical advantage. The Hellscape of Bakhmut: A Case Study Perhaps no city better exemplifies the sheer brutality of the war than Bakhmut, a town that has seen constant battle for months. Once home to a vibrant community, Bakhmut now lies in ruins. The o...
