Study finds reduced bee reproduction over 2 years

According to the WHO, air pollution is the greatest health risk worldwide, accounting for more than 4.2 million deaths annually.

After analysing the global plastics value chain, ETH researchers have revealed that the impact of plastics on climate and health is bigger than originally thought due to the increased use of coal for process heat, electricity and as a raw material in production.

An international team of scientists, led by Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), has linked increased air pollution to an uptick in cases of lung adenocarcinoma (LADC) worldwide. 

Scientists at the University of Tsukuba used a sophisticated set of experimental tests, including synchrotron X-ray scattering and quantum computer modeling, to study the effect of temperature on the structure of magnesium carbonate. 

The study is the first to explore how vehicles churn out ammonia across an entire urban center using satellites in space.

Microplastics are everywhere, even in the most remote places. Where do these tiny pieces of plastic come from? 

Alternative-energy research at Oregon State University is charting a path toward the mass adoption of clean cars powered by direct-ethanol fuel cells.

Lower humidity and higher temperatures are driving extreme weather that makes wildfires more frequent and intense, say experts.

Synthetic nitrogen fertilizer is a major contributor to climate change and environmental pollution.
