The global cobalt supply chain is more interconnected—and more vulnerable—than previously thought, with disruptions capable of triggering far-reaching cascades across multiple countries and industries。 Researchers warn that protecting battery supply chains will require system-wide coordination because critical bottlenecks can turn local shocks into
Fish oil supplements successfully delivered omega-3s to the brain, but a two-year study found no meaningful benefits for memory, cognition, or Alzheimer’s-related brain changes。 The results challenge the idea that fish oil pills can help prevent Alzheimer’s and shift attention toward overall diet and lifestyle instead
Humans evolved to pay close attention to danger, but today that instinct is being overwhelmed by an endless supply of bad news from around the world。 Researchers say the answer isn’t to stop following current events—it’s to build healthier habits around how, when, and where we get our news
Vitamin B12 is needed in microscopic amounts, but a shortage can have major effects on health and energy。 The vitamin was first linked to a lifesaving liver treatment for pernicious anemia nearly 100 years ago。 Today, researchers are finding that B12 may also help keep cellular powerhouses called mitochondria functioning properly
Researchers have discovered that beneficial soil bacteria give plants an unexpected survival advantage in salty soils。 Instead of helping plants keep salt out, the microbes stimulate the production of lignin, a natural compound that strengthens roots and makes plants more resilient。 Greenhouse and field tests showed healthier plants and higher yiel
Researchers found that highly drug-resistant bacteria from hospitals are also resistant to glyphosate, a commonly used weedkiller。 The discovery suggests that agricultural herbicides may be helping antibiotic-resistant microbes survive and spread far beyond healthcare settings
A new study from Northern Arizona University is raising red flags about a widely used global emissions database from Climate TRACE, a consortium co-founded by Al Gore。 Researchers found that the database may be dramatically undercounting carbon dioxide emissions from cars and trucks in cities—by an average of 70% across 260 U。 cities, with some cit
The battle between butter and margarine comes down to chemistry。 Butter’s naturally occurring fats create rich flavors, golden browning, and flaky baked goods, while margarine’s modified plant oils offer consistency and a longer shelf life。 Although both contain mostly fat, their different structures influence how they behave in recipes
Scientists discovered that Heliconius butterflies have evolved an extraordinary lifespan, living several times longer than closely related species。 Even more surprising, some show little sign of physical decline as they age。 Their unusual pollen-feeding lifestyle may play a role, but the research suggests deeper evolutionary changes are also helpin
