“#Revealing Brazil’s rotten agribusinesses” Following reports that Brazil’s current deforestation rate—1 million hectares—is the highest in a decade, a peer-reviewed study published in Science today finds that 18-22%, and possibly more, of Brazil’s annual exports to the European Union are potentially contaminated with illegal deforestation, while identifying for the first time the specific producers of…
“#Tuning frontal polymerization for diverse material properties” The images illustrate the change in polymer shape depending on the glass transition temperature.

Researchers from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have improved the technique of frontal polymerization, where a small amount of heat triggers a moving reaction wave that produces…
“#Does “naming and shaming” of colleges with large tuition increases make a difference?” Since 2011 the U.S. Department of Education has published two annual lists of higher education institutions with the highest percentage changes in tuition and fees and average net price. A study published today found that inclusion in either of these College Affordability…
“#Sea turtles’ impressive navigation feats rely on surprisingly crude ‘map’” The routes of 35 adult female green turtles travelling to their foraging grounds in the Western Indian Ocean after the end of the nesting season on Diego Garcia, Chagos Archipelago.
