Quantum computers can model complex systems in ways regular computers can’t. A company in Australia recently proved this by running a quantum simulation involving electrons that was bigger and more detailed than anything tried before.

Scientists are turning waste from burning plant material into a useful soil additive called biochar. When plants are heated in the absence of oxygen, they leave behind a charcoal‑like substance rich in carbon. This biochar can trap harmful chemicals known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, o
The European Union must speed up its decisions to keep pace with global powers, Germany’s foreign minister said. He highlighted that the EU moves too slowly in a world where politics change fast. Berlin wants to push for quicker choices. This means allowing smaller groups of countries to co
