Education equals innovation when studying in Japan
Open Access Government discuss Japan’s focus on supporting young researchers to help achieve the country’s scientific research and development goals when studying in Japan.
Climate change increases the speed of ocean sound transmission
Ocean sound transmission is being sped up due to global warming induced by climate change – threatening marine species as sounds travel faster and become louder.
Declining global agrobiodiversity is harmful to health and food safety
Experts warn that an increasingly unhealthy diet is not only bad for humans, but also global agrobiodiversity – slowly damaging human health and the Earth.
Rotating Lepton Model: Coupling relativity, quantum mechanics and neutrinos for the synthesis of matter
Professor Costas Vayenas and his coworkers Dionysios Tsousis and Dimitrios Grigoriou, discuss how using special relativity to study neutrino motion at fm distances leads to Bohr type models with relativistic gravity as the attractive force.

Organismal contributions to changing climate
Zachary Senwo, PhD Professor, explores how organismal contributions can be used in the search for climate change solutions
IPCC: Climate change policies are nothing without social justice
The new IPCC report describes the financial commitment of high carbon-emitting countries – but are climate change policies enough to support justice and stop the crisis?
The reality of carbon capture utilisation technology
Carbon capture technology is mostly marketed as a beneficial solution to the emission crisis, yet the technology in reality uses too much energy.

Scientists find new type of star covered with carbon and oxygen
A group of astronomers from the University of La Plata and Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics found a new type of star - covered in the by-product of helium burning.
Lowest-income populations face 40% more exposure to heat waves
Rising global temperatures are creating imminent heat waves, which are set to impact poorer populations more substantially than wealthier ones.
