Tahimik na Kaagapay: Zooplankton Nagtutulong Laban sa CO₂ sa Tubig

Maliit pero makapangyarihan: natuklasan ng pananaliksik na kayang kolektahin ng zooplankton ang CO₂ sa hangin at ilubog ito sa kailaliman ng karagatan. Nagiging natural carbon pump sila—murang tulong para sa klima at ebidensyang benepisyo ng ecosystems.

A recent Carbon Brief study shows China’s carbon dioxide emissions have remained unchanged or declined for 18 straight months, thanks in part to a surge in solar (+240 GW) and wind (+61 GW) capacity and a 5% drop in transport emissions.

Scientists at TU Wien have developed a non-toxic “deep-eutectic” solvent that separates blended fabrics — like cotton-polyester mixes — within minutes. Cotton stays intact and polyester is recovered almost fully, offering a near-complete recycling method for textiles that were once nearly impossible to reclaim.
Bagong ligtas na solvent, magpapagana sa ganap na pag-recycle ng pinaghalong tela
At COP30 in Belém, Brazil officially created ten new Indigenous territories, including some overlapping Amazon National Park. The move, issued via presidential decree, adds legal protection to lands of groups like the Munduruku and Guarani-Kaiowá during a summit marked by protests.

Researchers at the University of Cologne have discovered a powerful antibody — 04_A06 — that neutralizes around 98.5 % of over 300 tested HIV strains. In lab experiments the antibody reduced viral load to undetectable levels — a major step toward broad-spectrum therapies for prevention and treatment worldwide.
