At the recent CITES CoP20 meeting, two-toed sloths (Hoffmann’s and Linnaeus’s) were added to Appendix II, meaning international trade will now require permits and stricter regulation. This change aims to curb illegal capture for pets, roadside “sloth encounters,” selfies and unregulated tourism, helping safeguard wild populations and reduce stress and mortality from exploitation.

Mahigpit na pandaigdigang patakaran para protektahan ang mga sloth mula sa pet at selfie trade

MONGABAY

Sa CITES CoP20, ang Hoffmann’s at Linnaeus’s two-toed sloth ay inilista sa Appendix II, kaya’t kailangang may permit at mas istriktong regulasyon ang internasyonal na kalakalan. Layunin ng pagbabago na bawasan ang iligal na pagkakahuli para sa pet trade, selfie spots at hindi naregulang turismo, at mas pangalagaan ang populasyon ng mga ligaw na sloth.

An Essex couple trialled a HeatHub—a mini data-centre in their garden shed with over 500 computers—to heat their home while moving from gas boiler to solar setup. Their monthly bills dropped from about £375 to just £40-£60, blending innovation with home comfort.

A new bio-inspired filter developed at the University of Bonn uses the same gill-arch architecture as filter-feeding fish to remove more than 99 % of microplastic fibers from washing machine wastewater. Because it’s self-cleaning and clog-resistant, it could be cheaply built into future washing machines — a clear win for cleaner water and less plastic pollution.

Scientists at the University of Illinois have developed a method that converts food waste into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) meeting ASTM and FAA benchmarks without blending fossil fuels. The process, using hydrothermal liquefaction and catalysts, opens new paths in the circular bioeconomy and aviation decarbonisation.
