Global conference told benefits should not come at expense of well-protected environments The energy transition must not be used as a fresh excuse to plunder Indigenous territories, delegates at a groundbreaking global conference on phasing out fossil fuels were warned. High oil prices and war in the Middle East have boosted the attraction of renewable technologies in many parts of the world, but the economic, security and climate benefits should not come at the expense of well-protected natural...
Scientists are making a major leap toward freezing organs for future use without damaging them. A new study reveals that one of the biggest obstacles cracking during ultra-cold preservation can be reduced by carefully tuning the temperature at which tissues enter a glass-like state. This breakthrough builds on recent successes in cryopreserved organ transplants and could bring the long-imagined idea of "banking" organs for later use much closer to reality.
NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite has been searching for exoplanets since its launch in 2018, and it turns out it may have found plenty more of them than we had thought...

From toxic smoke and oil spills to rising emissions, poisoned soil, and damaged ecosystems, war can reshape the environment long after the fighting stops.
Last Word On Nothing - 14 hours 50 min agoFor years, we'd been trying to entice two kiwi vines to create some shade over the picnic table in the backyard. We gave them questionable water during a drought, fenced them off from predatory puppies and toddlers. As the years passed, they just looked sadder and sadder. Finally, we dug them up and put in […] The post Passion Fruit Diplomacy appeared first on The Last Word On Nothing .

Mixing up your workouts might be the real secret to a longer life. Long-term research tracking over 100,000 people for more than three decades suggests that doing a variety of physical activities rather than just more of the same can significantly lower the risk of death. Interestingly, the benefits don't keep rising endlessly; they seem to level off after a certain point, hinting at a "sweet spot" of activity.

For decades, the Gulf of Panama has relied on strong seasonal winds to trigger upwelling, bringing cool, nutrient-packed water to the surface. But in 2025, this dependable event didn't happen. Researchers point to unusually weak winds as the likely culprit, reducing ocean productivity and warming coastal waters. The surprise disruption highlights how vulnerable these critical systems may be to climate change.
Mother Jones - 2 days 1 hour agoThis story was originally published by Inside Climate News and is reproduced here as part of the Climate Desk collaboration. Some Texas oil wells gush hundreds of barrels of oil a day. But many are like the wells on Jackie Chesnutt's ranch in West Texas that only trickle out a couple barrels a month. Chesnutt, a retired engineer, claims […]...
NASA may have met its match in a microscopic stowaway that shrugs off conditions meant to simulate Mars. Researchers found a fungus, Aspergillus calidoustus, lurking in NASA clean rooms used to assemble Mars missions and put its spores through a punishing series of tests: intense radiation, extreme cold, searing heat,...
