A humble little lizard has developed a clever escape route from predators – it blows a bubble over its nostrils and scuba dives to safety for 20 minutes or more. Now, a biologist has explored exactly how it works.Continue ReadingCategory: Biology, Scie… Continue reading Bubble-blowing lizard scuba dives to avoid predators
Proposed methods of removing toxic ‘forever chemicals’ from water have either only trapped the chemicals or broken them down. A new study has demonstrated a method that does both – quickly and cheaply.Continue ReadingCategory: Environment, ScienceTags:… Continue reading All-in-one solution captures and destroys ‘forever chemicals’ using light

While an increasing number of people are becoming concerned about microplastic pollution in their drinking water, it’s one of those things that the average person can’t check for themselves. That could soon change, however, if a new prototype device re… Continue reading New device may let everyday folks check their water for microplastics
As one of the four basic things humans need to live, clean drinking water is obviously of the utmost importance. While rainfall and rivers and lakes are the traditional go-to sources, climate change is making once reliable water sources much more undep… Continue reading Self-contained solar-powered boxes pull drinking water from the air
The good news is that there’s a vast ocean of water under the surface of Mars – enough to cover the entire planet to a depth of a mile (1.6 km). The bad news is that this repository is so deep and unreachable that it might as well be in another galaxy…. Continue reading Vast underground ocean of water found on Mars
It’s ironic that in places where drinking water needs to be checked for microbes the most, labs that can perform the analysis are least likely to be present. A new “lensless” device could help, as it uses light to instantly detect harmful microorganism… Continue reading Optical device forgoes lenses for better detection of tainted water
The ingenuity of ancient Egyptian engineers may have been even more ahead of their time than we thought. A new study suggests a currently unexplained ancient structure may have been part of a water purification system feeding a hydraulic lift to raise … Continue reading Ancient hydraulic lift systems could have helped build the pyramids
Scientists in the UK have developed a new method for removing toxic “forever chemicals” from wastewater. Specially treated, 3D-printed ceramic lattices can remove up to 75% of the chemicals from polluted water in three hours – and the structures get be… Continue reading Reusable ‘waffle stacks’ pull toxic ‘forever chemicals’ from water
