by Daniel Brouse and Sidd Mukherjee August 10, 2025 Introduction: Observing a Vanishing Pool I’ve been researching evaporation for decades, but sometimes the most telling experiments happen in my own backyard. At the start of this pool season, rainfall far exceeded evaporation. Then, for the past two months, the balance flipped: with little rain and […]

Understanding Urban Heat Islands: Causes, Data, and Climate Context
by Daniel Brouse August 7, 2025 Urban heat islands (UHIs) are a well-documented phenomenon in which cities and densely developed areas experience significantly higher temperatures than surrounding rural environments. This temperature disparity is not the result of long-term climate change, but rather of localized factors that alter how heat is absorbed, stored, and released. The […]

Climate Change as an Interdisciplinary Crisis: Physics, Mathematics, Economics, and Earth Sciences
BuyLow.com and SellHigh.com are companion platforms dedicated to exploring climate change as an interdisciplinary crisis—spanning physics, mathematics, economics, and earth sciences—while aiming to explain the most complex science in the simplest, most practical terms. By the early 2000s, my lab partner (a physicist from Ohio State) and I developed a theory of nonlinear acceleration in […]

Turkey Breaks All-Time Heat Record with Scorching 50.5°C (122.9°F)
by Daniel Brouse July 27, 2025 Turkey’s Environment Ministry confirmed that the country has recorded its highest temperature ever as meteorologists measured a blistering 50.5°C (122.9°F) in the southeastern district of Silopi on Friday. This extreme reading not only sets a new national heat record, but also underscores the region’s growing vulnerability to climate-driven extreme […]

Climate-Driven Health Collapse: The Compounding Feedback Loops of Disease, Pollution, and Extreme Weather
by Daniel Brouse — July 26, 2025 Climate change is not just an environmental issue — it is a cascading health crisis. As rising global temperatures disrupt natural systems, they initiate multiple interconnected health feedback loops that reinforce and amplify one another. These loops do not operate in isolation, nor do they follow a predictable […]

Global Courts Shift Climate Change from Moral Imperative to Legal Obligation
by Daniel Brouse July 23, 2025 “The ICJ opinion explicitly connects environmental degradation with the erosion of fundamental human rights, including the rights to life, health, food, water, and cultural integrity.” The International Court of Justice (ICJ), the UN’s highest judicial body, issued a landmark opinion today (July 23, 2025), declaring that states have clear […]

U.S. Halts Beach Replenishment Funding for the First Time in 29 Years, Leaving Shore Towns Exposed
by Daniel Brouse July 22, 2025 For the first time since 1996, Congress has allocated zero dollars for federal beach replenishment, halting nearly three decades of continuous support for projects that combat beach erosion along the U.S. coast. Typically, Congress sets aside $100 million to $200 million annually for these efforts, which involve dredging sand […]

The Cascading Crisis: Climate Change, Pathogens, and the Future of Human Health
By Daniel BrouseJuly 20, 2025 Disease vectors are among the most critical—and often underestimated—risk factors of climate change. Together with deadly humid heat and increasingly violent rain events, these three threats drive an exponential rise in climate-related deaths. Disease vectors, such as mosquitoes and ticks, expand their range and transmission seasons as the climate warms, […]
