Microplastics have become a problem in our current world in every aspect. They are found nearly everywhere and have been traced in our foods and water. To deal with the menace, scientists are working around the clock to...

With rising temperatures, humans have become more reliant on cooling technology to maintain stable temperatures. As a result, buildings are using more energy to cool, and urban areas are particularly vulnerable due to the...

“Our research provides evidence that the formation of K’gari and the Great Barrier Reef are linked to a change in the magnitude of sea-level rise and fall due to major climate feedback changes during the Middle Pleistocene...

Dr David Harper says keeping BST in winter would mean using more electricity in the mornings, and Guy Ottewell suggests changing business opening times instead

Researchers at Yale University have found that common weed is a super plant that could help develop strong drought-resistant crops. "Portulaca oleracea," also known as purslane was found to have a unique photosynthesis...

Even highly skilled scientists motivated to come to accurate results varied tremendously in what they found when provided with the same data and hypothesis to test.

The latest developments in solar tech offer potential solutions to the energy security crisis – including satellites that would convert sunlight into power for Earth

Governments may say they’re doing all they can to halt the climate crisis. Don’t fall for it – then we might still have time to turn things around

Met Office due to publish long-term forecast that will give steer on likely energy use in coming months

A new island emerged in the waters of the southwest Pacific Ocean. The island was observed by NASA Earth Observatory satellites following a volcanic eruption near Home Reef island. The island is located on a seafloor ridge...

Microalgae (phytoplankton), unlike macroalgae (seaweed), are single-cell microscopic organisms that live in freshwater or marine ecosystems. Through their growth, they produce biomass, which is organic material that is used...

Scientists have found a way of generating green hydrogen from atmospheric moisture and electricity. In a study published in Nature Communications, scientists found that electrolyzing humidity in the air can produce viable...

Researchers say their prototype produces hydrogen with greater than 99% purity and works in air as dry as 4% relative humidity

Last week, a team of inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) arrived at Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. The plant was seized by Russian forces in early May and has recently been the target...

Prototype designed using chemical in crustacean shells remains 99.7% efficient after about 400 hours
