Nitrate pollution threatens water, health, and ecosystems worldwide — but new research shows biochar could offer a low-cost, sustainable solution, turning agricultural and forestry waste into a powerful tool for cleaner soil and water.
A University of Nottingham study shows plant-based dog foods dramatically reduce land use, emissions, and resource demand compared to red-meat diets — offering pet owners a way to shrink their dog’s environmental “paw-print” without sacrificing nutrition.
Wastewater plants emit about twice as much greenhouse gas as previously believed, according to Princeton engineers who used a mobile lab to check plants across the US.
A major report published in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology informs us about the diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and vaccination required to tackle the impact of Covid-19 on heart health.
Researchers have collaborated with the Welsh Ambulance Services University NHS Trust and autonomous drone specialists Skybound for a National Institute for Health and Care Research study in order to test the feasibility of drones delivering Automated External Defibrillators for emergency cardiac arrests in remote locations.
A comprehensive new review charts the latest breakthroughs in eliminating toxic “forever chemicals” (PFAS) from water. Covering eight advanced treatment methods, the study highlights both promising results and remaining challenges, offering a roadmap toward sustainable purification solutions.
A new study at the University of Warwick has revealed that sleep problems at age 14 i.e. early teens are often linked with self-harm behaviour at that age and future self-harm at age 17.
A squishy, reusable alternative to ice is on the horizon: researchers at UC Davis have developed “jelly ice” — a gelatin-based cooling material that keeps food and medicines cold without producing meltwater, is compostable, and can be reused across multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
A hefty grant of 1.5-million-dollars has been secured by researchers from the University of Minnesota’s College of Veterinary Medicine in order to work on collaborative projects aimed at understanding disease transmission and mitigating the impacts of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) on dairy herds and the broader agricultural industry.
