Russia says that European countries are making more drones for Ukraine. The defence ministry claims this pushes the conflict closer to Europe. It released a list of factories that it says build drones or parts for Ukraine, including sites in Britain, Germany, Spain, Italy, Israel and Poland.
A recent Gallup survey shows that only about one third of Americans feel the environment is good, a new low in the past 25 years. Two out of three people think pollution and climate change are getting worse, and most say the government is not doing enough to protect nature. The study also found t
Electric vehicles are gaining ground as a clear benefit for people and the planet. They produce no exhaust fumes, so city air gets cleaner and health risks linked to smog drop. When you look at the money side, charging an EV costs about 40 % less than filling a gas tank. Plus, fewer parts m
The 70‑kilogram proteins that keep cells tidy are found almost everywhere, from simple bacteria to complex eukaryotes. In the cell’s busy interior they act like tiny engines, using energy from ATP to fold and move other proteins. In bacteria the main player is called DnaK, which works hand‑in‑han
A mining company wants to blast a new granite quarry just six miles from Columbia’s downtown, but locals aren’t welcoming the idea. Heidelberg Materials has asked for permits to dig up 242 acres near Monticello Road, close to colleges and neighborhoods like Haskell Heights. The plan promises to rest
A major fuel leak at a military base in Maryland has triggered a cleanup and investigation, raising questions about how well such facilities protect the environment. Over 32, 000 gallons of jet fuel spilled between January and March from a refueling system that was later shut down. A cleanup crew is
Scientists found that ash from Spain’s 2021 Tajogaite volcano could help make greener building materials. They mixed it with strong alkaline solutions and tested how it behaves in water. The tests showed some metals like molybdenum (Mo) leak out more than allowed for safe landfills. Other experimen
Aging often brings slow but steady inflammation, even without obvious sickness. Scientists call this low-grade, long-term process InflammAging (IA). It quietly weakens tissues and slows repair, making the body more vulnerable to diseases like Alzheimer’s, heart problems, and diabetes. For years, exp
Two countries on opposite sides of Europe are joining forces to build drones together. Norway will now host production of Ukrainian-designed unmanned aircraft, while swapping technical insights with Kyiv. This unusual partnership isn’t just about making flying robots—it’s a chance for both nations t
Florida is famous for its sunshine, not its server farms. Yet the same companies pushing AI are eyeing swamps and pastures to build power-hungry computer palaces. These places need as much water as a small town every day just to keep the machines from melting. Right now the state’s energy grid can b
