TOXIC products: Humans are the greatest pollutants of office air, reveals surprising study
Researchers from Purdue University found that humans are the most significant pollutants of indoor air. In a study presented at the American Association for Aerosol Research Conference in Oregon, the researchers revealed that humans are the dominant sources of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in an office environment. VOCs are a large group of chemicals that strongly influence the […]

Scientists claim that terraforming the Earth can pave the way to terraforming Mars
It was not long ago that scientists had casually and derisively dismissed chemtrails as a mere hoax. Yet as more talks of so-called “climate change” and space colonization come to the fore, it’s becoming increasingly apparent why geoengineering practices like aerosol spraying might really be a distinct possibility. Writing for Space.com, biologist Mike Wall talks about terraforming […]

Chinese scientists produce artificial rain using potentially harmful low-frequency sound waves
Chinese researchers found an effective weather modification method to bring greater levels of rainfall. The method works by firing low-frequency sound waves at clouds to vibrate water droplets and increase the likelihood of them merging into larger droplets. In a paper published in the journal Science China Technological Sciences, the researchers reported that the method can increase the amount of rainfall […]

Bee die-offs in Nebraska traced to pesticide-using ethanol plant
Honey bees in Nebraska have been dropping dead due to an ethanol plant that generates enormous heaps of smelly waste containing unsafe levels of pesticides. AltEn, a recycling plant based in the town of Mead, has been using pesticide-coated grains to produce ethanol, a chemical used to make biofuel. As a result, the company has been churning out massive piles […]

Researchers detect unsafe levels of radioactive elements in Ukraine crops nearly 35 years after Chernobyl disaster
The devastating effects of the deadly 1986 nuclear blast in Ukraine can still be seen in crops growing far from the explosion site, according to a recent study published in the journal Environment International. A team led by University of Exeter researchers found that crops grown miles from the Chernobyl nuclear site contain radionuclides above safe consumption levels. Radionuclides are […]

Israel sidewalks emitting steam due to a mysterious “trapped energy” source
Concrete sidewalks in Israel have been heating up and emitting steam due to “trapped energy” coming from a mysterious source. Experts dispatched to the scene did not detect any dangerous substances at the site nor any risk to the buildings’ stability but determined that the heat was caused by an unidentified energy source below ground. Residents of […]

Scientists discover microbes in harsh deep-sea environments – is this evidence of alien life?
A study published Dec. 4 in the journal Science revealed that life can exist even in places on Earth where ordinary life forms could not possibly survive. An international team of scientists drilled a hole into the ocean floor and found evidence of single-celled organisms living in deep ocean sediments at boiling temperatures. “We found chemical evidence of the organisms’ […]

Researchers find high levels of pesticides in the Great Barrier Reef, including one that’s BANNED in 60 countries
Marine scientists have detected dangerous levels of several pesticides in the Great Barrier Reef, including the herbicide atrazine. This pesticide has been banned in 60 countries but remains registered for use in Australia. In a report published in the journal Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, reef water quality expert Jon Brodie and fisheries veterinarian Matt Landos said that 50 individual pesticide […]
