Many of us know the harms plastic poses to wildlife, and small actions—even like picking up a few bottle caps—can reduce its impact on animals and the environment. Ocean Conservancy has launched the Wildlife Impact Calculator, a tool that shows exactly how these small efforts make a real difference in protecting wildlife like sea turtles and seabirds.
TOI-1452 b is an exoplanet around 70 percent larger than Earth and is considered a strong candidate for an ocean world. Scientists suggest that its oceans could reach depths of hundreds of kilometres.
Sea ice around Antarctica expanded for several decades until a sharp decline occurred in 2015. The reasons behind this change are revealed in research by the University of Gothenburg.
Tiny forms of life embedded in debris blasted from a planet by an asteroid impact could travel through space and arrive on another world still alive, according to new experiments by researchers at Johns Hopkins University.
The annual minimum extent of Antarctic sea ice was reached in late February. This figure is higher than in previous years and even approaches the average.
Many countries are starting to drastically restrict the number of visitors, but scientists say that is not the right solution.
Despite the La Niña phenomenon, global ocean warming continued in 2025 due to rising concentrations of greenhouse gases, with ocean heat content reaching record levels, particularly in the Mediterranean.
A recent discovery opens the path to a possible definitive cure for HIV. Initial clinical trials show significant reductions in infected cells, offering a more effective alternative to standard therapy.
In the event of a global conflict, there are places on Earth considered among the safest and most war-proof. Let’s discover together which countries we are talking about.
Research conducted in the United States found that very hot days combined with high levels of air pollution can significantly increase the short term risk of suicide.
By tracing subtle hydrogen radiation across deep space, astronomers have measured the collective light from galaxies too faint to see individually, revealing previously hidden structure in the early universe.
Climate change is increasingly making its way onto the big screen. A new analysis reveals that a record number of Oscar nominated films include references to the climate crisis, from wildfire dramas to futuristic stories. But how deeply do these films really engage with the issue?
