Rising carbon dioxide levels are doing more than warming the planet—they are quietly affecting human health. From cognitive decline and respiratory stress to deadly heat risks, growing CO₂ concentrations are reshaping the biochemical balance of our bodies. This article explores the hidden health impacts of elevated CO₂ and why urgent climate action is essential for our future well-being.

Forged in ancient supernovae long before Earth existed, uranium is one of the Universe’s most extraordinary elements. From powering nuclear reactors and medical technologies to shaping global geopolitics, uranium’s journey from stellar explosions to strategic resource reveals how cosmic events continue to influence modern civilization.

Earthquakes strike without warning — and knowing whether you live near a seismic hotspot could be the difference between life and death. Understanding the earthquake-prone areas near you empowers you to prepare in advance, respond wisely when the ground shakes, and protect what matters most — your home and your loved ones. Map showing epicentres of all earthquakes during 1963–95 with magnitudes of mb ≥ 4. An earthquake is a sudden and intense shaking of the Earth's surface ca

The Strait of Hormuz is one of the most strategically important waterways in the world. This narrow passage, located between Oman and Iran, connects the Persian Gulf to the Arabian Sea and global shipping routes. Beneath and around these contested waters lie some of the richest oil and gas deposits on Earth — a legacy of hundreds of millions of years of tectonic activity, ancient salt formations, and vast carbonate platforms.

The year 2026 is witnessing the intensification of a Super El Niño, a phenomenon that meteorologists warn could push summer temperatures to record-breaking extremes across South Asia and beyond, triggering extreme heat waves. Unlike ordinary El Niño years, a Super El Niño can supercharge the atmosphere with excess heat, triggering prolonged heatwaves, erratic monsoons, and dangerously high humidity levels that can overwhelm the human body within hours. Climate change and glob

A rare Super El Niño may occur in 2026, potentially breaking global temperature records and altering weather patterns globally. The warm and cool stages of a natural climatic pattern that occur throughout the tropical Pacific are known as El Niño and La Niña, respectively. A typical El Niño is defined as an anomaly above +0.5°C for five consecutive months. Above +1.5°C is a "strong" event. At +2.0°C or above, the event earns the informal title of "Super El Niño".

The quest to find organic compounds on Mars has significantly advanced over the last ten years, with the identification of basic aromatic compounds, S-heterocycles, and aliphatic organic substances in the Gale crater. The in situ identification of more than 20 organic compounds from clay-containing sandstones found in the approximately 3.5-billion-year-old Knockfarrill Hill member of Glen Torridon, located within Gale crater.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly advanced scientific analysis not only in climate change but also across all other branches where data processing, enhanced modelling, simulation, and complex tasks are involved. The present is the era of AI, which is growing rapidly and evolving from AI Agents to Artificial Generative Intelligence (AGI).
