Ozone can be an agent of good or harm, depending on where you find it in the atmosphere. Way up in the stratosphere, the colorless gas shields the Earth from the sun's harsh ultraviolet rays. But closer to the ground, ozone is a harmful air pollutant that can trigger chronic health problems including chest pain, difficulty breathing, and impaired lung function.

The reality of what lies within our oceans has fascinated people since time immemorial, so it’s no wonder we’ve created countless myths about the watery depths.But step aside, Atlantis, scientists have discovered a real Lost City beneath the waves, and this one is teaming with life.The rocky, towering landscape is located west of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge mountain range, hundreds of metres below the surface of the Atlantic Ocean, and consists of massive walls, columns and monoliths stretching more than 60 metres (200ft) tall.To be clear, it’s not the home of some long-forgotten human civilisation, but that doesn’t make its existence...

Tusi, also known as tuci or tucibi, has emerged as a prominent recreational drug, particularly in Latin America. Commonly referred to as "pink cocaine," tusi is recognized by its distinct pink-dyed powder form. However, this name is misleading, as tusi is not a single substance but rather a concoction of various psychoactive drugs. This article delves into the origins, composition, and misconceptions surrounding tusi.

Editor's note: This article was originally published on April 25, 2022. It has since been updated. Even as activists continue to face opposition—and even disdain—from climate deniers for attempting to raise awareness about the danger our planet is in, mounting scientific data shows that the world's ice is melting at a rapid pace. According to a study published earlier in 2021, global ice loss has increased rapidly over the past two decades, soaring from about 760 billion tons per year in the 1990s to more than 1.2 trillion tons per year in the 2010s. Meanwhile, a second, NASA-backed study on the Greenland ice sheet found that at least 74 major glaciers that terminate in deep, warming ocean waters are being severely undercut and weakened.

What would the Earth look like if all the ice melted? The answer is terrifying.
