Furthermore, the devastating impact of Hurricane Beryl on the Caribbean has underscored the urgent need for small island nations to receive more support in fighting climate change and preparing for extreme weather events. In line with these concerns, the United Nations has declared 2025 to 2034 as the Decade on Combating Sand and Dust Storms, recognizing the increasing threat of extreme weather events from Africa to China. Additionally, the discovery of a cave on the Moon, seen as a potential habitat for humans, highlights growing interest in climate-conscious exploration beyond Earth.
