Capturing Water Vapor From the Oceans Could Alleviate Freshwater Scarcity
As freshwater sources continue to diminish and get badly polluted worldwide, the race is on to find alternatives. One common solution is the desalination of seawater. Another and as yet untapped source, say scientists, lies in harvesting water wapor, which could provide us with “an almost limitless supply.”

A New Method Can Rid Drinking Water of Toxic ‘Forever Chemicals’
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a large group of widely used chemical compounds that have earned the moniker “forever chemicals” owing to their ability to stick around for a long time in the environment.

Airborne Microplastics Are Another Serious Air Pollution Hazard
Airborne pollutants are a major risk factor to people in urban areas worldwide and they include a whole host of minute particles and toxins that can harm our health. While the focus is usually on PM2.5 particles, airborne microplastics can be another unseen danger lurking in every breath we take.

In Kenya and Elsewhere Saving Mangroves Can Save the Planet
Protecting mangrove ecosystems may not be as much part of the conversation on natural preservation as protecting forests or coral reefs, yet their conservation is just as much key to saving the planet.

Should We Start Placing More Solar Farms in Deserts?
Increasing the number of solar farms worldwide will significantly contribute to energy independence and carbon-neutral lifestyles. Building them in grassy fields and on rooftops is commonplace. Could the complex problem of streamlined renewable energy be solved with a simple solution like placing solar panels in deserts?

Air Pollution Can Cause Cardiac Arrests and Harm Even Unborn Children
Chronic air pollution is more than just a nuisance. It is an acute health hazard and the more we learn about its insidious effects on our bodies, the worse the picture gets.
By Daniel T Cross Adding to the already large corpus on research about medical conditions airborne pollutants can cause or worsen from pulmonary ailments to mental ones, scientists have found that neurotoxic particles in polluted air can impact the nervous system, especially in children, including unborn ones. Children living in urban areas with high levels of…
People in the US Might Need Buyouts To Leave Flood-Prone Areas
Floods have wreaked havoc across much of the United States, with extreme storms and climate change-related disasters becoming more prevalent. For people living in floodplains, each event’s risks can prove devastating.

Healthier Plant-Based Diets Are Better for the Environment
“To be clear, we’re not asserting that less healthy plant-based diets are worse for the environment than animal-based diets. However, our findings show that plant-based diets can have different health and environmental impacts”
