The ocean, a vast and untamed force, might hold the key to cleaner energy. A French company, Seaturns, has developed a unique way to capture wave power. Their water pendulum turbines float on the sea, moving with the waves. This motion creates electricity. The design is simple and strong. It needs l
Northwestern India's Trans-Gangetic Plains (TGP) are vital for the country's food supply, growing lots of wheat and rice. But this area is in trouble. Land is getting worse, and droughts are becoming more common. This is a big deal because not many studies have looked at both problems together. A r
Nature-based solutions (NbS) are becoming a popular way to tackle urban problems. These solutions use natural processes to improve city life. However, there is a lot of information about NbS, and it's hard to know what works best in different places. A recent study looked at 61 review articles on N
Farmers play a big role in keeping our food supply safe. They make daily choices that affect how well crops grow. One big challenge is making sure there are enough pollinators, like bees, to help crops grow. A recent study looked at how farmers in Dengkou County manage pollination. It found that far
People from Taiwan and Japan recently had online chats about protecting nature and how regular folks can help. The goal was to see if talking across cultures could make them think more deeply about their own beliefs and how they affect the environment. The chats did more than just share ideas. They
Biogas is gaining attention as a green fuel that can cut down on pollution and reduce reliance on traditional fuels. However, there are hurdles to overcome, like cleaning it up, storing it, and making engines run better with it. This research highlights the need for better rules and new technology t
Scientists are working on making algae farming better for the environment and more efficient. They are focusing on a type of algae called Chlorella sorokiniana, which can be used as food. The goal is to grow this algae in a way that uses fewer resources and produces more biomass. To do this, they t
Plants face big problems from metal poisoning in soil. This is a real issue for farmers. But there is a new hope. Tiny particles, called nanoparticles, might be the answer. These particles are super small. They can do big things. First, let's talk about the problem. Too many metals in soil can hurt
India's farms are facing a silent threat: microplastics. These tiny plastic bits are sneaking into the soil and messing with crops. But how much do farmers know about this issue? A recent study took a closer look at what Indian farmers think about microplastic pollution. Researchers talked to 310 f
Mexico is facing a big problem with how much red and processed meat people eat. Experts say this isn't good for health or the environment. So, they're thinking about taxing meat to get people to eat less of it. First, let's talk about why this is important. Eating too much red and processed meat ca
