Microplastics pick up pollution, making them even more toxic to humans
Microplastics can pick up pollution in their travels and pose an even greater threat to human health, according to a new study. (Article by Krystal Vasquez republished from EHN.org) In the ocean, for example, toxic compounds can hitch a ride on plastic and make the material 10 times more toxic than it would normally be, according to […]

New research suggests mushrooms can communicate with each other using up to 50 “words”
A recent study published in the Royal Society Open Science journal has found that mushrooms can communicate with each other. Scientists even believe they are able to use up to 50 “words.” “[We] found that the ‘fungal language’ exceeds the European languages in morphological complexity,” reads the study, written by Andrew Adamatzky, professor of computer science at […]

FINDING: Masks will silently deprive humans of oxygen for years to come through microplastic pollution
For the first time, scientists have detected microplastic pollution in human blood. The study, published in Environment International, detected plastic particles in almost 80% of the people they tested. These microplastics may be consumed or inhaled. These microplastics can attach to red blood cells, harming oxygen utilization in the bloodstream. They also interfere with glandular […]

Ice cores drilled in Antarctica, Greenland reveal scores of gigantic volcanic eruptions during Ice Age
Ice cores drilled in Antarctica and Greenland have shown colossal volcanic eruptions during the Ice Age, with many of them bigger than any eruption in modern history. According to the University of Copenhagen physicists who were responsible for the research, these ancient eruptions “can teach us about our planet’s sensitivity to Earth change.” For most people, the mention […]

Ice cores from top-secret Army base reveal Greenland was largely ice-free millions of years ago
A new study published in the journal PNAS suggests that Greenland might have been largely ice-free millions of years ago. Researchers arrived at this conclusion after studying ice core samples that U.S. Army scientists dug from a mile below northwestern Greenland in 1966 as part of a top-secret project codenamed “Iceworm.” The ice core was lost in a freezer for decades before it was […]

Study reveals pectin can stop aluminum from accumulating in plants
A type of fiber called pectin can protect plants from soil aluminum, according to a recent study led by researchers from the University of Tsukuba in Japan. Published in the journal Frontiers in Plant Science, the study showed that pectin works as a barrier against aluminum. Pectin protects plants from soil aluminum Aluminum is the most abundant metal […]

Analysis of mutated fern spores sheds light on link between mercury and mass extinction
A study published in the journal Science Advances found that increased mercury levels in the environment may have contributed to the mass extinction more than 200 million years ago. An international team of researchers analyzed mutated fern spores from core samples dating to that period and found a strong link between mercury and the mass extinction event. “By looking […]

MRI-based map of squid brains reveal cephalopods are just as smart as dogs
The cephalopod class of mollusks – which include cuttlefish, squid, and octopuses – are considered intelligent invertebrates and are important examples of advanced cognitive evolution in animals. Without exception, cephalopods are active predators that have the ability to locate and capture prey, which demands some sort of reasoning power. There are more to squids than […]
