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.

In what can only be described as a herculean accomplishment, a team of scientists has succeeded in bringing to the surface a long, 1,268-meter section of rocks from the Earth’s Mantle. This layer, hidden beneath the crust, forms the largest chunk of our planet. The insights gained from this...

Donald Trump took his authoritarian threats in a dark new direction during two new public appearances. He suggested our next election might be our last, reiterated in advance that the election will be rigged against him, and admitted all the post-assassination “unity” talk was nonsense, openly declaring: “Maybe I’ve gotten worse.” We talked to Ruth Ben-Ghiat, author of the “Lucid” newsletter and the book Strongmen, who helps illuminate how Trump’s form of politics requires keeping his followers in a frenzy of excitement about what the authoritarian leader plans to inflict on their imagined enemies. Listen to this episode here.

For almost 2,000 years, a once-bustling city in the desert of Saudi Arabia was left abandoned to the sands of time.Hegra, a thriving international trade hub in the first century AD, fell into a steady decline after it was annexed by the Roman empire in 106 AD.Then, in the centuries that followed, it was all but forgotten: occasionally mentioned by pilgrims on their way to Mecca, but left largely untouched.Yet languishing in the burning sun for nearly two millennia left the extraordinary site remarkably well-preserved.And now it has finally opened up to both tourists and experts who are hailing it...

Jealousy is a strange thing. Jealousy is a complex and often misunderstood emotion. Jealousy can be caused by a number of factors, such as insecurity, fear of loss, or even past negative experiences. A person is overcome by the emotion of insecurity, and there is nothing we can do about it.
