As climate systems grow increasingly volatile across the globe, one phenomenon continues to drive extreme weather on a planetary scale: El Niño. El Niño is a periodic warming of the Pacific Ocean that disrupts global weather systems, often...

With so much potential, nations around the world are keen not to miss out on having their own quantum systems and are investing heavily. In the UK 2.5 billion pounds was set aside. China is also a major player...

The world is facing a growing water disaster. By 2030, it is expected that water demand will exceed sustainable water supply. A crisis is looming in many parts of Europe as droughts are becoming more frequent and more...

For decades, quantum computing lived largely in theory. Today, the question is no longer if they will work, but how soon and for what. Unlike conventional computers that process ones and zeros, quantum computers use qubits, which can exist...

Italy sits on the boundary where the African tectonic plate is diving down beneath the Eurasian plate. This collision has shaped the country’s dramatic landscape, creating the Alps and Apennine mountain ranges, but also means active volcanoes and...

In another seismic hotspot, Pavia in northern Italy, is one of Europe’s leading earthquake engineering laboratories. The EuCentre is testing how buildings, bridges, ports, infrastructure, and industrial systems behave during earthquakes and exploring how best to improve their...

Italy sits on the boundary where the African tectonic plate is diving down beneath the Eurasian plate. It makes it one of the most seismically active countries in Europe but despite widespread scientific advancements, quakes have continued to...

Campi Flegrei - which means Burning Fields - is one of the most seismically active parts of the country. It is just a few miles from Mount Vesuvius, the volcano that buried the town of Pompeii in 79AD. This...

Prof. Adam Scaife explains how El Nino makes the day longer. During a big El Nino, the spin of the air changes, making it circulate from west to east a little faster. It's quite a modest effect, but...

As the world adjusts to an increasingly warming world and the impact, one of our biggest challenges will be to provide safe drinking water to an increasingly greater number of people. But many scientists believe a solution begins...

Desalination is the process of removing salt from seawater, to make it drinkable and safe for use in agriculture. It is a vital technology in parts of the world where fresh water is in short supply. But how...

Quantum computers will be used to solve complex, multi-dimensional problems beyond the capacity of classical supercomputers. So far ORCA Computing have delivered their systems to several high-profile government and research institutions exploring applications in areas such as energy, healthcare,...

CGTN Europe spoke to Manuel Rodriguez, Spanish political advisor, social innovation consultant and CEO of Cámara Cívica

There is a growing water crisis across the world, no longer confined to traditionally more arid areas, water demand is fast outstripping supply. The reasons are complex, but in many areas a combination of population increase, agricultural demand and...

As part of the latest RAZOR - Conversations: Prof Adam Scaife, from the UK Met Office, and Neil Cairns discuss how the impacts of climate change are now being witnessed in the space of one lifetime. Watch the full...
