Microbes that breathe rust could help save Earth’s oceans
Researchers from the University of Vienna discovered MISO bacteria that use iron minerals to oxidize toxic sulfide, creating energy and producing sulfate. This biological process reshapes how scientists understand global sulfur and iron cycles. By outpacing chemical reactions, these microbes could help stop the spread of oceanic dead zones and maintain ecological balance.

Modeling technological deployment and renewal: monotonic vs. oscillating industrial dynamics
by Joseph Le Bihan, Thomas Lapi, José Halloy The deployment of a technology typically follows an S-shaped curve, characterized by an initial phase of exponential growth, followed by a saturation phase where deployment slows and stabilizes at a maximum level. While existing literature has primarily focused on modeling and theorizing this growth pattern—particularly the early exponential phase—le…

Scientists uncover what delayed Earth’s oxygen boom for a billion years
Researchers uncovered that trace compounds like nickel and urea may have delayed Earth’s oxygenation for millions of years. Experiments mimicking early Earth revealed how their concentrations controlled cyanobacterial growth, dictating when oxygen began to accumulate. As nickel declined and urea stabilized, photosynthetic life thrived, sparking the Great Oxidation Event. The findings could also…

Your pumpkin might be hiding a toxic secret
Researchers in Japan have revealed how some gourds draw pollutants into their fruits. The secret lies in a protein that carries contaminants through the plant sap. By manipulating this protein’s structure, scientists hope to breed crops that resist contamination or serve as natural soil purifiers. This finding bridges food safety and environmental cleanup.

Study finds EVs quickly overcome their energy-intensive build to be cleaner than gas cars
Making electric vehicles and their batteries is a dirty process that uses a lot of energy. But a new study says that EVs quickly make up for that with less overall emissions through two years of use than a gas-powered vehicle.
