Abstract

The year 2023 has been a record-breaking one for the impacts of climate change, and not in a positive way. The combination of low sea ice, flooding, heat waves and rising global temperatures have shown, once again, just how fragile the planet is. Decreasing carbon emissions is a worldwide challenge,...
