'Eco-friendly' straws contain potentially toxic chemicals – posing a threat to people and wildlife
Paper and bamboo straws contain ‘forever chemicals’ – maybe threatening the health of people and wildlife.

Recent statements by the CEO of a major oil company further the case for federal regulations to cap greenhouse-gas emissions in the oil and gas sector, Steven Guilbeault said.
The sun was a bright ball of orange amid hazy skies across the San Francisco Bay Area on Wednesday morning due to wildfire smoke blanketing the region.
Sonos may be synonymous with WiFi-equipped multi-room speakers, but plenty of companies have introduced their take on those products since the Play:1 arrived in 2013. Today, JBL announced its new Authentics series, a lineup of three connected speakers that offer a lot of what we've come to rely on from Sonos. All three support multi-room audio and automatic self-tuning alongside Bluetooth, WiFi and Ethernet connectivity. While only the most expensive has Dolby Atmos immersive sound, the entire...

Featuring 38 movies in its main program, this year's festival will launch the Oscar campaigns of several movies, even if their actors will not be in attendance.
A study published Wednesday in the journal Nature shows rising sea levels are endangering the world' coastal wetland and coral reef ecosystems that are unlikely keep pace with the "drowning" effects of sea-level rise.
Dallas Goldtooth considers the post–Reservation Dogs future, for himself and for an industry that’s finally making space for Native creators.
Astronomers have unexpectedly discovered the heaviest Neptune-like planet yet — one four times more massive than our solar system's Neptune.
A Neptune-sized planet denser than steel has been discovered by an international team of astronomers, who believe its composition could be the result of a giant planetary clash.
Researchers have a new way to connect quantum devices over long distances, a necessary step toward allowing the technology to play a role in future communications systems.
Research published in Nature warns that rising seas will devastate coastal habitats, using evidence from the last Ice Age.
University of Oxford researchers have made a significant step towards realizing miniature bio-integrated devices, capable of directly stimulating cells. Their work has been published in the journal Nature.
The study of physical systems under extreme conditions offers valuable insights into their organization and structure. In nuclear physics, neutron-rich isotopes, especially the light ones with neutron-to-proton ratio significantly different from that of stable nuclei, provide stringent tests of modern nuclear structure theories. These isotopes exist as very short-lived resonances, decaying through spontaneous neutron emission.
Nanofitins, which are derived from a protein found in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius—an archaeal microorganism found in hot springs—successfully neutralized SARS-CoV-2 in mice and were well-tolerated. When inhaled by the rodents, the engineered nanofitins, which inhibit the virus by binding to its spike proteins, were observed to quickly reach the lungs in high doses both preventing and clearing early infections, researchers from biotech company Affilogic report Aug. 30 in the journal Molecular Therapy.
Metrological institutions around the world administer our time using atomic clocks based on the natural oscillations of atoms. These clocks, pivotal for applications like satellite navigation or data transfer, have recently been improved by using ever higher oscillation frequencies in optical atomic clocks.
Modern medicine depends on antibiotics to treat infections by disabling targets inside bacterial cells. Once inside these cells, antibiotics bind to certain sites on specific enzyme targets to stop bacterial growth. Randomly occurring changes (mutations) in the genes for these targets occur naturally, in some cases making the target harder for the antibiotic to attach to, and that bacterial version resistant to treatment.
We’re coming to the end of August, and we all know what that means: blistering heat, back-to-school promotions, and pumpkin spice everything. Yes, though it might seem ridiculously early for fall flavors, pumpkin spice fans and the companies aiming to please them would argue that this time of year can’t come soon…
