Methane gas leak in Antarctica, its impact worrying: Scientists

New delhi date. 24 July 2020, Friday

The unfortunate news is coming from Antarctica. In which scientists have obtained information about the now leaking methane gas from its ocean surface. No one has been able to estimate why and how methane leaked into the Antarctic seabed. Antarctica's sea surface contains large amounts of methane gas, which has been linked to rising ocean temperatures. Which scientists have said is very worrying. However, the location of the leak is shown in Ross C. The spot was first discovered in 2011, then in 2016 scientists focused on the area for research and have been monitoring the situation there ever since.

Andrew Thurber, the study's lead researcher, said leakage alone was not a concern. There is another concern. In fact, even the microbes found here are describing the deteriorating situation here.

Any such unforeseen change is usually seen in connection with climate change. The biggest reason for this is the emission of harmful gases and this has had a very bad effect on the nature and marine life of the oceans. Thurber considers this discovery to be a natural laboratory that will come in handy in further research. The leak is a little ahead of an active volcano but they do not agree that the leak may have been caused by a volcano.

According to scientists, the sea level has risen due to large emissions of methane. This could worsen the situation on the beach in the near future. The absence of gas consuming germs here could also lead to future gas leakage into the atmosphere. In the discovery, Thurber also claimed that the micro-organisms living there were also being affected. He estimates that the situation in Antarctica could worsen in the next 10 years. This is not the first time that methane leak information has been obtained. The first such leak was reported in South Georgia in 2014, the first case of methane leakage in the South Ocean. This type of leakage is worrisome as it is in a different marine area. Its effect on different life situations can be felt there.

All searches in the area were halted due to the Corona epidemic. There was a risk of spreading the infection to a remote area if the coronavirus continued to work during the time.

The facility of posting in threads is coming from Facebook

Image
Taking advantage of Twitter company's name change and other major upheavals last year, Meta Company launched a new social platform ' Threads ' almost like Twitter. When the Threads service launched in July 2023, it was launched along the lines of the already hugely popular Instagram to give it a large user base from the start. Hence, if we have an Instagram account, we can sign-up in the threads from it and the Instagram username and followers are also added to the threads. Due to this the threads got a very fast growth initially. In the first month itself , in fact in the first five days, the number of its users reached the mark of 10 crores. However, then the enthusiasm of the users began to wane. Since Instagram and Threads are connected to each other, users in Threads remained but their actual activity started to decrease. It seems that even the meta company did not live up to the expectations it had from Threads. Hence, the company has started looking for new...

New ray of hope in UPI system

Image
- UPI is likely to undergo significant changes related to safety - In a country like India, it is not like giving the facility of rupee transactions to billions of people. - The UPI system itself is safe, but if the people themselves are oblivious or the crooks prove to be smarter, fraud occurs. - Efforts are now being made to avoid human errors, which will hopefully make the system safer. Well, authorities in France, Sri Lanka and Mauritius are also starting to like the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) for money transactions. This system is certainly revolutionary, hence its use in India is steadily increasing. But now, after long usage of UPI, many people are afraid to use it, so many people are afraid to stay away from it till now. Because cyber money fraud related to UPI is continuously increasing in the country! In fact, the UPI system itself is secure. Fraud that occurs is not caused by 'hacking' this system.
