Apparently, you can see more rainbows with climate change. But is it really worth it though? 🤷 | via philstarlife
Rainbows are produced when water droplets refract sunlight. Sunlight and rainfall are therefore essential ingredients for rainbows. Human activities such as burning fossil fuels are warming the atmosphere, which changes patterns and amounts of rainfall and cloud cover."Living in Hawaii, I felt grateful that stunning, ephemeral rainbows were a part of my daily life," said the study's lead author, Kimberly Carlson, now at New York University's Department of Environmental Studies.
However, few researchers have examined how climate change might affect the aesthetic qualities of our environment, and no one had bothered to map rainbow occurrences, much less under climate change. Then, the scientists trained a rainbow prediction model based on rainbow photo locations and maps of precipitation, cloud cover, and sun angle. Finally, they applied their model to predict present-day and future rainbow occurrences over global land areas. The model suggests that islands are rainbow hotspots.
