The number of known Snowflake customer data breaches is rising
LendingTree subsidiary QuoteWizard and automotive parts provider Advance Auto Parts have been revealed as victims of attackers who are trying to sell data stolen from Snowflake-hosted cloud databases. Snowflake says that their investigation is still.....»»
Steve Jobs screamed advice at Starbucks CEO, who wishes he"d listened
Then Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz asked Steve Jobs for advice and got a profane tirade in response — which he says he later wished he'd listened to.Starbucks seems to have done okay despite ignoring advice from Steve JobsIn 2008, Schultz reportedly.....»»
Legislation would block carbon dioxide pipelines in Illinois for up to two years
With the prospect of vast networks of carbon dioxide pipelines looming in Illinois and other Midwestern states, the state legislature has taken steps to protect landowners, taxpayers and the environment......»»
The impact of carbon impurities on the quality of gallium nitride crystals
The wide availability of light-emitting devices (LEDs) for consumer use has led to a dramatic decrease in the cost of lighting our homes and other buildings. This is owing to the much higher efficiency of LEDs in converting electrical energy into lig.....»»
Fixing excess carbon dioxide: Biocatalyst-driven carboxylation under mild conditions
Carbon capture and utilization technologies for the conversion of carbon dioxide into carboxylic acids have garnered attention recently, with researchers from Tokyo Tech recently demonstrating a biocatalyzed carboxylation reaction of not only natural.....»»
Why CISOs need to build cyber fault tolerance into their business
CISOs who elevate response and recovery to equal status with prevention are generating more value than those who adhere to outdated zero tolerance for failure mindsets, according to Gartner. “Each new cybersecurity disruption exposes the fact that.....»»
Nonreciprocal quantum batteries exhibit remarkable capacities and efficiency
In physics, nonreciprocity occurs when a system's response varies depending on the direction in which waves or signals are propagating within it. This asymmetry arises from a break in so-called time-reversal symmetry, which essentially means that a s.....»»
The world’s largest fungus collection may unlock the mysteries of carbon capture
Research is uncovering the key role that fungi play in getting soils to absorb carbon. Enlarge / Fungus samples are seen on display inside the Fungarium at the Royal Botanic Gardens in Kew, west London in 2023. The Fungarium was.....»»

Researchers track greenhouse gas emissions in Chinese value chains with an interprovincial input–output model
China's economy has shifted from a stage of high growth to a stage of high-quality development, and the establishment of a dual-carbon target requires profound changes in the industrial structure and energy systems, as well as finding the right direc.....»»
Basic income can double global GDP while reducing carbon emissions, analysis suggests
Giving a regular cash payment to the entire world population has the potential to increase global gross domestic product (GDP) by 130%, according to a new analysis published June 7 in the journal Cell Reports Sustainability. Researchers suggest that.....»»
New study reveals substantial carbon emissions from the ongoing Israel-Gaza conflict
A new study by an international team of researchers has revealed the significant environmental impact of the ongoing Israel-Gaza conflict. Co-authored by Dr. Benjamin Neimark, Senior Lecturer at Queen Mary University of London, the study provides a c.....»»
The World’s Largest Fungus Collection May Unlock the Mysteries of Carbon Capture
Research is uncovering the key role that fungi play in getting soils to absorb carbon, and how humanity’s actions aboveground are wreaking havoc in the mysterious fungal world below......»»
New insights into how cyanobacterial proteins cycle carbon in changing conditions
The products of photosynthesis are easy to point out. Plants, algae and cyanobacteria create the air we breathe and the fuel for food webs as they turn carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and sugars. How photosynthesis works, though, is much harder.....»»
Unveiling novel energy phenomena from light exposure on layered materials
Research groups from the University of Tsukuba and the University of Rennes have discovered a novel phenomenon in which a nested structure of carbon nanotubes enveloped in boron nitride nanotubes facilitates a unique electron escape route when expose.....»»
How Much Energy Would It Take to Pull Carbon Dioxide out of the Air?
A physicist runs the math on direct air capture and warns: This tech won't save us from climate catastrophe......»»
From greenhouse to desert: Ethylene receptor"s role in rose salt tolerance
A study reveals a novel mechanism in roses where the Tryptophan-rich sensory protein (TSPO) degrades the ethylene receptor ETHYLENE RESPONSE 3 (RhETR3) to enhance salt tolerance. This discovery sheds light on the complex relationship between ethylene.....»»
JWST discovers large variety of carbon-rich gases that serve as ingredients for future planets around very low-mass star
Planets form in disks of gas and dust, orbiting young stars. The MIRI Mid-INfrared Disk Survey (MINDS), led by Thomas Henning from the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy (MPIA) in Heidelberg, Germany, aims to establish a representative disk sample. B.....»»
Tropical forests adjust strategies to thrive even when soils are nutrient poor, large field experiment shows
Tropical forests store a third of the world's carbon in their wood and soils. However, their future as a carbon sink has been uncertain. Scientists have long wondered whether nutrient-poor tropical soils would limit the ability of mature and recoveri.....»»
Study: The climate crisis, policy distraction and support for fuel taxation
To limit the consequences of the global climate crisis, the global community needs to dramatically reduce its carbon emissions. However, public support for measures to achieve this goal can be attenuated by current crises, which distract people's att.....»»
