Scientists develop advanced forest monitoring systems: Will forests monitor themselves in the future?
‘Forests are among the most important ecosystems in nature, constantly evolving, yet their monitoring is often delayed,’ says an expert. Climate change, pests, and human activity are transforming forests faster than we can track them — some changes become apparent only when the damage is already irreversible.

Large study of dietary habits suggests more plant oils, less butter could lead to better health
Researchers investigated data from over 200,000 individuals who were followed for more than 30 years, and found that higher intake of plant-based oils, especially soybean, canola, and olive oil, was associated with lower total, cancer, and cardiovascular disease mortality, whereas butter intake was associated with increased risk of total and cancer mortality. The researchers also found that less than a tablespoon of butter per day with equivalent calories of plant-based oils could likely lower cancer deaths and overall mortality by 17%.
Nearly half of popular tropical plant group related to birds-of-paradise and bananas are threatened with extinction

The Dangers of Heavy Metal and Hydrocarbon Soil Contamination on Roadsides and Industrial Sites
Soil along busy roadsides and near industrial sites often is polluted by heavy metals and persistent hydrocarbons that have accumulated there over decades, posing environmental and health risks. This article explores the sources of these contaminants, their behavior in soils, and the dangers they pose […]
