Climate change: We are heading to a future with more rainbows

There will be more rainbows as a result of climate change!

Rising sea levels and more intense storms are already posing problems. However, a recent study has found that when we’d ordinarily be busy digging our graves, we might really have a pleasant diversion. There will be more rainbows as a result of climate change!

According to the experts, there will be a global 5% rise in the frequency of rainbows. This study examined the effects of climate change that are less evident.

The researchers used a computer model, crowdsourced pictures, and data from the entire world’s climate for the study. The researchers discovered that 66 to 79% of the world’s regions will experience more rainbow sightings.

“Living in Hawai’i, I felt grateful that stunning, ephemeral rainbows were a part of my daily life,” says land systems scientist Kimberly Carlson, who is now at New York University. “I wondered how climate change might affect such rainbow-viewing opportunities.”

Rainbows were discovered to occur more frequently in higher-elevation

Thousands of images collected from the public were examined. Photos for which location information was available were used to compile data. After being fed this information along with others like precipitation, cloud cover, and sun angle, a computer model was trained to produce predictions. The model then generated forecasts. Rainbows were discovered to occur more frequently in higher-elevation areas than in lower-elevation ones.

But given that climate change will otherwise be disastrous, this is hardly going to make us happy. It’s best to stay away.
