@TomGauld hits the nail on the head - the corporate #climatechange deniers have their PR strategies in place... the pivot is coming

Isso tem se tornado um pesadelo para quem trabalha com corais. Os recifes de coral são cerca de 1% do oceano, mas eles são essenciais para 25% da vida marinha. Os recifes de coral seriam algo equivalente às florestas tropicais em terra, um hotspot de biodiversidade.

Today I learned that Saturn's north pole is a hexagon-shaped storm.

And each side of the hexagon is longer than the distance around the Earth!

Increased atmospheric CO₂ is expected to expand the Hadley cell, leading to more droughts in the subtropics and rainfall in the tropics.

A study finds that CO₂ removal (CDR) will not return the Hadley cell to its original state for centuries.

It’s best not to emit CO₂.

Maybe someone can explain this. I"m being serious, not sarcastic. What is the fascination with gossip about the personal lives of celebrities? Marriage, divorce, etc. What exactly is the fascination? For some reason, the example that popped into my head is a relatively older one - Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. Remember that? I bring it up ONLY as an example.
What's the fascination? Is it escapism? A bonding experience with other people over a drama being played out in public? What am I missing?

El animal más pesado que ha existido

Un equipo de paleontólogos ha creado el modelo 3D de una nueva especie de cetáceo arcaico, descubierta en la costa sur de Perú

Bautizado como Perucetus colossus, los autores calculan que su peso y tamaño pudo haber superado al de la ballena azul, hasta ahora considerada la criatura más pesada jamás registrada

Was reminded of Noriyoshi Ohrai's Star Wars illustrations yet again, so adding this to the old thread:

Yes, she's peeing. What we're especially interested in today is the vessel she's urinating into.
