<p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><strong>Arabia Weather</strong> - When a plane crashes, the flight recorder (the black box) is critical to collecting the errors that led to a disaster, and now the planet Earth gets its own black box in the event of some kind of destruction to the planet.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Researchers from the University of Tasmania decided to build a steel box the size of a school bus in the Australian state of Tasmania, located on an island off the country&#39;s southern coast.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Although there are still many questions, such as whether the Earth really needs the black box and how future generations will dismantle it, the box will be designed, according to its organizers, to &quot;hold leaders accountable&quot;, and <strong>its data will carry events impartially if human civilization is damaged.</strong></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <span style="color:#0000FF;"><strong>Climate change is one of the most dangerous threats to the earth</strong></span></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Scientists say climate change is one of the most serious threats facing humanity, exacerbating economic and health inequalities, increasing the frequency and severity of natural disasters, and threatening the world&#39;s food supply.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> And last November, negotiators at the COP26 climate summit in Glasgow reached a consensus that all countries must act more quickly to prevent a catastrophic rise in global temperatures, <strong>and scientists warned that exceeding the 1.5°C threshold would increase dramatically. From disasters such as water shortages, deadly heat waves, and ecosystem collapse, we are already close to this point where the global temperature has risen by 1.1°C.</strong></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <span style="color:#0000FF;"><strong>The &quot;Earth Black Box&quot; function</strong></span></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The creators of the Earth&#39;s Black Box project say it will collect daily measurements online, including:</p><ul style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Average Earth and Ocean Temperatures</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> ocean acidification</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Biodiversity loss and the extinction of some species</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Changes in land use</li><li style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> In addition to other matters related to population, military spending and energy consumption</li></ul><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The fund will document and preserve a collection of real-time scientific updates and analyzes on the climate issues the world faces and store them safely for future generations.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> In doing so, the Fund records the failure of the world&#39;s leaders to act to protect the Earth from climate change and other dangers resulting from destructive human activities and every step we take toward the catastrophic collapse of our civilization.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The box will be 10 meters long and 3 meters wide, and made of steel with a thickness of 8 centimeters, and its construction may be completed after the middle of next year.
