Researchers have linked hotter temperatures to a rise in suicidal thoughts and behavior in young people. The new study adds to existing evidence that rising temperatures are affecting the mental health of adult men and women, too.Continue ReadingCatego… Continue reading Hotter temperatures linked to rise in suicidal thoughts and behaviors
A 3,775-year-old log discovery has lent credence to the idea of burying wood to sequester the carbon it contains. Known as a wood vault, the concept helps keep CO2 out of the atmosphere while allowing the soil to be used for crops and other purposes.Co… Continue reading Carbon-locking wood vault concept advanced by discovery of ancient log

This stunning image of a bearded dragon (Pogona barbata) soaking up the rays in the Australian capital of Canberra has taken out the overall prize in the 2024 British Ecology Society’s photography competition, an annual contest open to any nature snapp… Continue reading Dragons and nature battles: The 2024 Capturing Ecology photography awards
A technique originally developed to combat acid rain has the potential to pull an enormous amount of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere – while helping to deacidify oceans, restore rivers and boost biodiversity and fish populations.Continue ReadingCa… Continue reading Cheap, scalable carbon capture method also rejuvenates rivers

In case you haven’t heard, the methane in cow burps is a major source of greenhouse gases. There may be a new way of addressing that problem, however, as a recent study shows that feeding cows clay reduces their methane emissions by over 30%.Continue R… Continue reading Clay reduces methane in cow burps by 30%
The Great Pacific Garbage Patch, or GPGP for short, isn’t exactly what you might have heard. It’s not a floating garbage land-mass twice the size of Texas that you can settle, even though it kind of already has its own currency (called Debris), a flag,… Continue reading The Great Pacific Garbage Patch has a $7.5-billion price tag
Taking a leaf out of the book of plants, scientists have used a photosynthesis blueprint to harness the power of sunlight and turn two of the most destructive greenhouse gases into useful, prized chemicals that can be then used for the production of fu… Continue reading Sunlight turns CO2 and methane into valuable gases for fuel and industry
Earth saw its hottest day on record this week – twice. According to the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) data, Sunday claimed the top spot for highest global average temperature since the records began in 1940, only to be broken again on Monday….
