A team of scientists has developed a new method to create carbon-negative materials using seawater, electricity, and carbon dioxide (CO₂). This new process not only locks away CO₂ in solid form but also yields hydrogen gas, a useful clean fuel.
You may have noticed fewer butterflies in your backyard. Researchers now have data confirming that they are disappearing across the United States at an alarming rate.
A new scientific review highlights a growing concern: microplastics and nanoplastics are accumulating in human brain tissue. Researchers are now investigating what this could mean for brain health and how we can reduce our exposure.
Your everyday routine may be quietly accelerating your brain’s decline—yet with a few simple but powerful adjustments, you can preserve your cognitive health.
Scientists have discovered why insects are drawn to artificial light at night. Their insights could aid in designing artificial lights that won't disrupt insects' natural behaviours, contributing to the preservation of declining insect populations.
A groundbreaking study in Nature Neuroscience has uncovered that monkeys, similar to humans, can participate in intricate deliberation and decision-making processes.
Mountain forests are rapidly disappearing, with a loss of 78.1 million hectares (7.1%) of mountain forest worldwide since 2000, an area larger than the US state of Texas or the country of France.
Scientists have long been puzzled by the fact that despite large amounts of plastic waste being dumped directly into the ocean or flowing towards it via rivers, only a small part of it is actually found there.
Researchers found that some naturally existing lake bacteria grow quicker and more effectively on the leftovers of plastic bags than on organic material like leaves and twigs, according to a study of 29 Scandinavian lakes.
For a long time, it was presumed that volcanic eruptions that take place on the bottom oceans were boring compared to those that happen on dry land. Nothing could be further from the truth.
