An Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) paper published in Computers & Geosciences outlines a process that might help to determine the relative importance of population increases vs. climate change. Our work establishes a new method to couple geographic information system data with global climate outputs and statistical analysis.

Due to the ongoing COVID19 crisis in South America, Extreme E decided to make the quick decision to switch the location of the fourth race of 2021 from Brazil to the island of Sardinia off the coast of Italy. Excess carbon in the atmosphere causes heat which in turn causes the trees to die through lack of water and forest fires.

For example - the process of obtaining lithium from brines can be more sustainable by condensing evaporated water so it can later be returned to the ground. A completely new method is to filter lithium directly out of the brine using membranes, thus avoiding water-intensive evaporation [8].

Brazil, the largest and most populous country in South America, was importing 80% of its oil and 40% of its foreign exchange was used to pay for that imported oil. The growth in hydrous ethanol, which uses a blend of 94-95% ethanol to 5-6% water, rapidly increased during the 1980s, with consumption peaking in 1989.
