Call for urgent cuts in methane gas emissions to tackle global warming – BBC News

Published

on



A United Nations report is calling for swift action to cut emissions of methane, a greenhouse gas that’s second only to carbon dioxide in driving global warming.

The report says curbing methane emissions could deliver immediate and long-lasting benefits for the climate, because the gas only lingers in the atmosphere for a relatively short time.

Huw Edwards presents BBC News at Ten reporting by chief environment correspondent Justin Rowlatt.

    I thought climate change was all because of man made CO2?? Now they are moving the goal posts and going to ban naturally made gas!! 😂😂

    Methane gas helps ocean keep warm ? Alot information proven that Methane gas helps earth atmosphere + bio – life+ trees 🌳. Natural Methane gas has helped earth atmosphere for millions of years

    Another tax. How about spending less. Get rid of the climate change brigade and the alarmism will die. Get rid of the politicians pushing for the green agenda and taxes will fall.

    But to make the future richer plant more trees ideally crop based ones.

    Methane is a problem? Well the world needs to pave over all of it's Bogs, marshes, and wetlands. They produce disproportionate amounts of green house gases. I mean I love Wisky but no more peat, because the decaying and rotting material produces too much Methane.

    I have to wonder how the warmi g effect of certain gasses is measured. Are they heating gasses in containers in a laborifory environment, or are we testing it in the natural environment?

    I say this because I just watched a video which claimed that emperor pengiunes were a threat for global warming because they produced small amounts of some random chemical which had a green house effect.

    Ofcourse. The issue with the abo e mention is that vast amounts of a chemical have to enter the upper atmosphere, and a some over effect has to be achieved before a random rare has can even BEGIN to produce a green house effect.

    For an example of this done over effect, the phone layer has a similar effect for preventing uv radiation, and the formation of a single hole in the ozone layer due to CFCs from spray cans made the entire ozone layer effectively ineffective at preventing radiation burn on a world wide scale, due to light reflecting and refracting around this single opening in this atmospheric layer.

    I have very little trust in this generation of scientists, which has been heavily indroctronated to protecting comunist petroleum states like kavakstan and veneswala by Soviet controlled faux christian churches. This latest generation of scientists is very good at giving experimental conditions and screwing with premises in order to creat ideological statements out of so called scientific papers (such as the paper linking child birth to CO2 emissions, a scientific study that is actual propoganda, and which has no scientific information within it.

    CH4 will oxidize into CO2 and H2O when exposed to an oxygen rich atmosphere which even contains som O3. Almost nothing withdtand oxidstion in earth atmosphere. Cows do not contribute a negative development of earth climate. Only ignorant or evil people would say that.

How prosthetics tech is training robots | BBC News

Published

on



Tech Now’s Paul Carter finds out how technology powering advanced prosthetics is also helping train humanoid robots.

The Ability Hand is a special piece of prosthetics technology, with two ambitions running through the same piece of hardware.

One is to give somebody their grip back. The other is to take what that person’s hand already knows – and teach it to a machine.

Signal boss Meredith Whittaker says AI ‘can always be controlled’ | BBC News

Published

AI can always be controlled, the president of encrypted messaging app Signal has told the BBC.

Meredith Whittaker said fears that AI could become conscious and take over were “not anchored in science and evidence”, warning instead about the dangers of using the technology in military decision-making.

The former Google employee said AI could “supercharge mistakes” and reflected on her role in opposing the company’s involvement in a US military drone surveillance project.

Speaking to the BBC Global Women, Whittaker also questioned who gets to shape the future of AI, criticised the concentration of power in Silicon Valley and explained why Signal would leave a country rather than compromise its users’ privacy.

Chinese AI tool told researchers how to make bioweapons | BBC News

Published

on



Developer Moonshot is conducting an internal review after researchers were able to persuade two of its popular Kimi models to tell them how to make biological weapons and carry out assassinations.

Mindgard, which tests the security of AI systems, told the BBC it discovered in July that Kimi K2.6 and K3 Swarm could evade safety limits put in place by developers.

It arose during a process called “jailbreaking”, where researchers use a series of complex instructions to see if AI tools ignore guardrails – which Mindgard said should have stopped Kimi from discussing concerning topics.

Moonshot told the BBC it welcomed third-party input “as a key pillar for building better and safer AI”.
