    [ Focus on Chemical Machinery and Equipment Network ] AFP recently released a report, which mentioned that after research, the area of ​​winter ice in the Bering Sea in the North Pacific between Alaska and Russia is now at a low level in 5500 years, and This change is particularly obvious in 2018 and 2019.

    For the details of the report, you can refer to the articles published by more institutions.
    What we want to talk to you about today is the problem behind this.
    In fact, reports on melting of ice and glaciers are not a minority in recent years.
    Although most cases will consider the impact of seasonal climate changes, through the accumulation and analysis of large amounts of data, many times the greenhouse effect is indeed closely related to them the reason.

     

    Although there are currently many self-media discounts on the labels of “experts” and “rumor refuting” to conduct popular science on similar incidents, it is said that whether they are analyzing from the perspective of unfounded worry or commenting from the perspective of real events, they will eventually It is difficult to get rid of one topic-the governance of the greenhouse effect.

     

    Judging from the current situation, the governance of the greenhouse effect cannot be delayed, because the chain reaction brought about by greenhouse efficiency is not just as simple as the melting of ice and snow.
    For example, the greenhouse effect will cause the land surface temperature to rise, which will cause the sea-land temperature difference to change, indirectly lead to air circulation problems, and cause the reduction of atmospheric self-purification ability, which further increases the probability and severity of smog.

     

    And the greenhouse effect is not only threatening humans, but the entire natural ecosystem.
    According to NASA data, due to the melting of glaciers due to the greenhouse effect, the Arctic summer sea ice area has been reduced by nearly half in the past 40 years.
    If this The situation continues to worsen, so in some cases, polar bears will become extinct due to the shrinking land for survival and the increasing difficulty in obtaining food.

     

      Of course, everyone cannot be unaware of the seriousness of this problem.
    The emergence of the "Paris Agreement" and the successive accession of many countries are a good example.
    The treatment methods for the greenhouse effect involve rich and complex technologies.
    Among them, temperature monitoring and sea level detection can be regarded as an important means to monitor the impact of the greenhouse effect.

     

      On the one hand, it ranges from common mercury thermometers and alcohol thermometers, to complex radiation thermometers, optical thermometers, and even large-scale online temperature detection systems for regional environments, ranging from simple physical phenomena to sophisticated semiconductor technology, thermometers The development has provided a material basis for environmental temperature data statistics; on the other hand, the development of tide gauges has simplified the on-site sea level detection work, and the appearance of wave eliminators has made the detection process more effective.
    In general, the technical level wants to achieve temperature monitoring and sea level detection is already at ease.

      In addition to monitoring, the rest is the development of carbon capture technology.
    Nowadays, the development direction of carbon collection technology is very broad, such as new material technology with nano-ceramic materials, or tail gas collection and treatment technology for heavy industrial exhaust emissions.
    In addition, the promotion of low-carbon concepts has also reduced carbon emissions to a certain extent.
    From the promotion of ideas to the development of technology, in general, facing the greenhouse effect problem, mankind has not chosen to escape, and how long we have to fight in the future may depend on the development of technology.
