How do filters remove particles from the air and reduce exposure - especially the small ones? As this Risk Bites primer shows as it dives into the science of aerosol particle capture, it may not be how you think! Air filters are an important tool for protecting health, improving air quality, and
Clean energy plays a significant role in our lives and will increasingly do so. This video explains what clean energy is and considers how reliable it is. Transcript: alugha Click here to see more videos: https://alugha.com/mysimpleshow
There are various methods for measuring radioactivity in the air. With the help of trace analysis, even very low concentrations of radioactivity in the air can be detected. In the video, Jacqueline Bieringer explains how to detect radioactive substances in the air. Original: "Federal Office for Rad
Air pollution has many causes. The biggest polluter is energy production, with two-thirds of particulate emissions coming from coal-fired power plants. Road traffic and factory farming in agriculture also contribute to this. Author: 3sat/nano/Labo M/Johan von Mirbach/Chris Caliman/Christoph Valenti
A global effort to monitor air quality is in the works as the US, Korea, and the European Union prepare to launch geostationary satellites capable of monitoring pollutants and other aerosols. Visit http://science.nasa.gov/ for more. Click here to see more videos: https://alugha.com/NASA
This video is produced by Vera Vrijburg, the winner of the Sustainable Development Video Contest initiated by the United Nations System Staff College and the simpleshow foundation. Vera Vrijburg illustrated an interesting example of local implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals in her
Droughts claim more victims each year than any other natural disaster. Depending on where it occurs and how long it persists, the cost of a drought can run into the billions of dollars. Droughts cause more than economic hardship, however. As this video segment adapted from NASA's Goddard Space Fligh
When air is in motion, wind is created. Temperature differences are responsible for this. When air warms up, it rises and colder air flows in. This is the cool wind that we feel. There is almost always wind on the coasts. Author: ZDF/Pur+/Autorenkombinat/Tobias Schönke/Carina Schulz/Jochen Schmidt
Green spaces are the "lungs" of the city - a vital necessity for cleaner air and good health. Our video outlines some benefits of urban green spaces and discusses ideas for building greener cities. #greenspace #environmentday #worldenvironmentday #urbangreenspaces #greenspaces Transcript: alugha C
When warm, humid air rises and cools down at the equator, the moisture condenses into clouds and it starts to rain. When it sinks again, the air warms up and causes extreme dryness, forming tropical deserts. Author: ZDF/Terra X/I.Zink/Wendevarga/Jochen Schmidt Translation and dubbing: alugha Cli
Imagine eating a hamburger that is in every way identical to the hamburgers you’re used to eating… except that did not come from an animal. While this may sound like science fiction, cultured meats (also known as lab-grown meat, slaughter-free meat, in-vitro meat, or even clean meat!) may be availab
Adverse weather conditions seriously disturb air traffic. Thunderstorms in particular often cause delays – pilots consider these storms among the most hazardous phenomena in air traffic. Up until now, however, air and ground personnel have lacked the appropriate technical systems to provide them wit
