A world-first simulation of a runaway greenhouse effect has shown just how quickly a planet can turn from a paradise world to an uninhabitable nightmare.
This discovery is based on a new measurement of Earth's rotation made with a ring laser to measure microfluctuations in the planet's rotation speed.
The sustained and accelerated rise in global temperature, both air and ocean, is hastening the melting of the cryosphere. How much would sea level rise if all the ice on the planet melted?
Researchers have developed a material that effectively captures uranium ions compared to other methods, opening the door to a more environmentally friendly source of nuclear energy.
Learn about the strategies outlined in a recent scientific study. Also, discover if it works in all cities and recommendations for future research.
Plastics constitute one of the most serious global pollution problems. What if solar energy could transform them into high-value products? A group of researchers brings us the answer. See the details here!
For less than 100 years, little Pluto was considered the ninth planet of the solar system, until it underwent a declassification in 2006 which placed it in the category of dwarf planets. Let's retrace the history of this planet together.
In 1888, a powerful bang on the lower Tyrrhenian Sea marked the beginning of Vulcano's last eruption
The eruption lasted until March 1890, changing the appearance of the island itself. Vulcano was the first example of a volcanic eruption studied.
Its name is Niijima, and it has been nicknamed "the island that never exists". We are talking about the graceful atoll created south of Iwo Jima, in Japan, following the eruption of an underwater volcano.
The vegan diet has been celebrated for its environmental benefits, but its health benefits have been a little fuzzy. Researchers use twin pairs to clear up the benefits of the diet.
If you were shown photos of five real people and five AI generated faces would you be able to correctly sort them? New research says you are probably not.
