A €100 billion queue: Why Europeans are waiting years for clean energy

Providing affordable clean energy to Europeans has become an “absolute obstacle course” due to the continent’s congested grid. More than €100 billion of renewables are stuck in Europe’s outdated energy grid, as communities across the continent wait years for solar panels and heat pumps. A new report by consulting group AFRY, commissioned by non-profit Beyond Fossil Fuels, found that a staggering 375 gigawatts (GW) of clean energy projects and 455 GW of battery storage projects are trapped in...

These underwater 'living pink rocks' help store carbon: Scientists just found four new species

These underwater 'living pink rocks' help store carbon: Scientists just found four new species Sadie Harley Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Rhodoliths may look like small rocks on the seafloor, but they are actually living algae that create habitats for marine life and contribute to long-term carbon storage. A new study found that the deeper, low-light waters off Japan's Tanegashima Island harbor a surprisingly distinct and diverse community of these living pink rocks,...

Light-induced quantum friction of carbon nanotubes in water

Abstract Friction slows down moving objects at both macroscopic and microscopic scales1. At the electronic level, quantum friction describes direct transfer of momentum between a liquid and the electrons of a solid2. Owing to its microscopic nature, this phenomenon remains experimentally challenging to capture3.

Quantum shell structure reveals new rule for proton-neutron pairing inside nuclei

Quantum shell structure reveals new rule for proton-neutron pairing inside nuclei Sadie Harley Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Nuclear physicists used a little magic in their latest experiment conducted at the U.S. Department of Energy's Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility, and the result has revealed surprising new information about the behavior of protons and neutrons inside the atom's nucleus. Specifically, the research revealed another requirement that...

Warming unlocks ancient carbon in Tibetan permafrost, triggering climate tipping point

Warming unlocks ancient carbon in Tibetan permafrost, triggering climate tipping point Tejasri Gururaj Author Stephanie Baum Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor A new study in Nature Communications finds a critical climate tipping point in Tibetan permafrost ecosystems. Warming of 2–4 degrees Celsius triggers a self-reinforcing cycle of carbon release that could significantly accelerate climate change, according to the work. Permafrost covers roughly 15% of the Northern...

A lot of 'recycled' plastic is being burned overseas—and causing widespread pollution linked to health problems

A lot of 'recycled' plastic is being burned overseas—and causing widespread pollution linked to health problems Lisa Lock Scientific Editor Andrew Zinin Lead Editor Picture a pile of trash the size of Manhattan and taller than one and a half Empire State Buildings. That's how much plastic waste the world is predicted to be generating every year by 2050 if nothing is done to change course. It's easy to think of recycling as the solution, but the vast majority of plastic waste now ends up in...

Ocean collapse triggered ancient wildfires, research suggests

Ocean collapse triggered ancient wildfires, research suggests Gaby Clark Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Research led by the University of Alabama found that widespread wildfires during one of Earth's ancient environmental crises did not trigger an ocean collapse but were a consequence of it. The study, published in Science Advances in April, revisits the Late Devonian period, when large parts of the coastal ocean became oxygen-depleted, disrupting marine ecosystems on a...
