Global Study Links Environment and Inequality to Faster Brain Aging

A massive international study shows that air pollution, climate extremes, inequality and political conditions can speed up or slow down how our brains age. The findings suggest that protecting brain health will require changes far beyond the clinic or the gym.

MIT Tool Maps Traffic Pollution Block by Block in Real Time

Using traffic cameras and mobile phone data, MIT researchers built a system that maps car emissions in Manhattan block by block and hour by hour. The approach could help cities design smarter, fairer climate and transportation policies.

New Low-Heat Method Could Make Acrylic Plastics Endlessly Recyclable

A team at the University of Bath has developed a low‑temperature chemical process that breaks acrylic plastics back into their building blocks, potentially allowing them to be recycled again and again without losing quality.

Wealthy Nations Risk a ‘Private Solution Trap’ on Climate Action

A global experiment with more than 7,500 participants suggests that when people have more resources, they tend to protect themselves from climate impacts instead of funding shared emission cuts. Researchers warn this “private solution trap” could slow global progress and leave poorer communities more exposed.

Fossil-Fuel Plastics May Fuel Toxic Algae Blooms, UCSD Study Finds

A new UC San Diego study finds that petroleum-based microplastics can help drive harmful algae blooms by wiping out tiny animals that normally keep algae in check. Biodegradable plastics tested in the same experiment had a much smaller impact.
