3D printing technology is transforming the construction industry by offering a more affordable, efficient, and sustainable approach to building homes. In Leamington, Ontario, Canada, a project led by Habitat for Humanity Windsor-Essex, the University of Windsor, Invest Windsor-Essex, and Nidus3D is constructing the country’s first 3D-printed multi-unit homes. Funded by the Canada Mortgage and Housing […]

A recent study has revealed that the slowing of Earth’s rotation over billions of years may have played a key role in the rise of oxygen in the planet’s early atmosphere. Around 2.4 billion years ago, Earth’s day was much shorter, and as the planet’s rotation gradually slowed, the lengthening of days allowed for extended

A new study by the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) has revealed that 122 major fossil fuel and cement companies, referred to as “Carbon Majors,” are responsible for 37% of the global sea-level rise observed since the late 1800s. The study underscores how their emissions have contributed to nearly half of the global temperature rise,

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has laid off over 300 climate scientists and probationary staff following a federal appeals court ruling that removed a prior injunction blocking the dismissals. These cuts are part of the Biden administration’s 2025 budget proposal, which includes a $1.6 billion reduction to NOAA’s funding and the complete elimination

A new report reveals that only 15 out of 195 signatory countries have submitted updated climate action plans (Nationally Determined Contributions, or NDCs) by the latest Paris Agreement deadline. The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) had set the deadline for nations to enhance their climate commitments, yet most major economies failed to

In a stark reminder of the global scale of marine pollution, human-made debris has now been discovered at the Calypso Deep, the deepest point in the Mediterranean Sea, located at 5,112 meters beneath the surface. Researchers found a disturbing collection of 167 items at this extreme depth, primarily consisting of plastic waste, but also including

Scientists at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore have made a groundbreaking discovery by developing a solar-powered process that transforms sewage sludge—an environmental burden—into valuable products: green hydrogen and single-cell protein. Sewage sludge, typically a by-product of wastewater treatment, is often discarded or incinerated, contributing to pollution. In this new method, the sludge is first

In a surprising discovery, researchers from the University of California, Davis, and Wageningen University in the Netherlands have demonstrated the benefits of planting two common crops side by side in what is known as intercropping. By pairing crops with complementary growth habits—such as legumes with cereals—farmers can enhance overall productivity and promote better resource utilization.

The Brazilian state of Pará, which will host the COP30 climate summit in November 2025, has denied that the construction of the 13.3-kilometer (8.3-mile) Avenida Liberdade highway is linked to the event. State officials claim that the project was planned before Belém was chosen as the summit’s venue and is meant to improve urban mobility

Denmark has announced plans to invest billions more in Arctic security in response to growing geopolitical tensions in the region. As global interest in the Arctic increases due to its vast natural resources and strategic location, Denmark, which controls Greenland, is prioritizing the defense and security of its territories. The Danish government has pledged to
