Reduction in shipping pollution has increased global warming - Los Angeles Times
www.latimes.com How did a sudden reduction in shipping pollution inadvertently stoke global warming?

A major shift in global shipping regulations intended to improve air quality may have temporarily — and inadvertently — set off a geoengineering reaction that is warming the planet, new research has found.

How did a sudden reduction in shipping pollution inadvertently stoke global warming?

An interesting case where trying to make positive change resulted in an unintended consequence

Gel-based male birth control is safe and effective, scientists report
  • "The research, which was presented at the Endocrine Society’s annual meeting in Boston, has yet to be peer-reviewed or published in a journal. More research is needed before the drug is finally approved and becomes available for the market."

    A step in the right direction, but good science takes time and a lot of effort!

  • The problem with GIMP
  • As I recall someone made the same lame argument about the name being divisive, a fork was created called Glimpse and it fell on its face not long after it was formed. Things like this are a waste of energy, nobody cares that it's called gimp.

  • How do I stop wanting to be on a relationship?
  • It sounds to me that you need to learn to love yourself first, so you feel comfortable being single until you find the right person.

    They say you have to be able to love yourself before you can love someone else

    newatlas.com Heaps of pharmaceuticals, toxic chemicals found in recycled plastics

    While the use of recycled plastics is normally considered a noble endeavor, a new study says it's time to think twice. In an analysis of the material from more than 10 different countries, hundreds of potentially harmful chemicals were uncovered.

    Heaps of pharmaceuticals, toxic chemicals found in recycled plastics

    Because of the range of compounds found, the researchers say that they believe recycled plastics are unfit for most uses and that they don't contribute to a circular material lifecycle.
