Antarctica's only native insect is already ingesting microplastics, even in one of the planet's most remote regions

Biomining viruses deliver rare earth elements but no toxic horrors of mining: Scientists genetically engineer a harmless virus that acts like a microscopic aquatic miner that can extract rare earth elements without causing ecosystem-killing pollution and destruction.

The Amazon rainforest is moving toward a hotter and drier climate, with droughts of a frequency and intensity not experienced on Earth for tens of millions of years—threatening large-scale tree mortality and undermining the planet’s ability to buffer rising atmospheric CO₂.
