Live plucking of geese and ducks is a cruel and harrowing experience for both the animal and the ethical consumer. Despite this grotesque practice, the down and feather market is set to explode in the near future. Live plucking operates in a legislative vacuum – with China leading the pack of countries where anything goes. Despite an increase of fashion retailers vowing to discontinue the trade, it seems that only the consumer can put an end to this.

Omar Yaghi, a Palestinian refugee from Gaza, has won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2025 together with Susumu Kitagawa and Richard Robson. They developed a new form of molecular architecture in which metal ions function as cornerstones that are linked by long organic (carbon-based) molecules. These metal–organic frameworks (MOF) are building blocks which can be used to drive chemical reactions or conduct electricity. Following the laureates’ groundbreaking discoveries, chemists have built tens of thousands of different MOFs to solve the world’s greatest challenges: separating PFAS from water, breaking down traces of pharmaceuticals in the environment, capturing carbon dioxide or harvesting water from desert air.

For decades biologists have been puzzled by the apparent low cancer rates of elephants and other large vertebrates. After all, their size means they have more cells and therefore one would assume a higher risk of cancer. However, not only do many animals large and small get cancer significantly less than initially thought, their mechanisms to prevent the disease could benefit humans as well.

Accusations of a “Christian genocide” in Nigeria have reignited an international debate, exposing the fault lines between the US perceptions and Nigeria’s complex reality of insurgency, insecurity and politics.

Vienna is celebrating the 200th anniversary of one of its most famous sons – Johann Strauss II. Johann Strauss became the most celebrated composer of his time. He was known as the Waltz King during his lifetime. Strauss was the musical superstar of his time and a main reason why Vienna is today known as the city of music. The waltz which was considered scandalous and risqué has become one of the most popular dances in the world.

Миллиарды литров неочищенных сточных вод вытекли из мексиканской реки Тихуана в США, загрязняя побережье Калифорнии и угрожая здоровью населения на протяжении десятилетий. Сейчас, когда кризис достигает критической точки, правительство США предпринимает новые действия. Со сменой руководства, увеличением финансирования и реализацией крупных инфраструктурных проектов официальные лица надеются, наконец, переломить ситуацию с этой трансграничной экологической катастрофой.

Billions of litres of raw sewage have flowed from Mexico’s Tijuana River into the US, polluting California’s coast and endangering public health for decades. Now, as the crisis reaches a breaking point, the US government is taking renewed action. With leadership changes, increased funding, and major infrastructure projects in motion, officials hope to finally turn the tide on this cross-border environmental emergency.

Ursula von der Leyen’s crown jewel was the Green New Deal. So it comes as no surprise that the European Commission heavily funded green and left-leaning NGOs to push for stringent environmental and health regulations to the tune of EUR 5.4 billion. Following an investigative report by Die Welt the European Parliament is now investigating these NGOs. Moreover, an EU taxpayer interest group has filed criminal charges with German prosecution and the EU Public Prosecutor’s Office against two of von der Leyen‘s Commissioners for their role in this alleged illicit funding scam.

在气候变化和塑料污染促使各行各业重新思考传统材料的时代，一个意想不到的“英雄”正从我们脚下悄然崛起——真菌。尤其是真菌的菌丝体——形成其根系的网络结构，正被证明是最具多功能性、可生物降解且环境影响极低的可用资源之一。如今，全球的科学家、建筑师和创业者们纷纷将目光投向这一有机体，希望以此解决建筑和包装这两个污染最严重的行业所带来的问题。

In an era where climate change and plastic pollution are forcing industries to rethink traditional materials, an unlikely hero is emerging from beneath our feet: fungi. Specifically, mycelium, the network of threads which forms the fungal root, is proving to be one of the most versatile, biodegradable, and low-impact resources available. Scientists, architects, and entrepreneurs around the world are now turning to this living organism as a solution to two of the most polluting industries: construction and packaging.

2025 has been proclaimed by the UN as International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ). This year marks 100 years of the development of quantum mechanics. Professor Burgdörfer talked to iGlobenews about a recent collaboration between Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien) and researchers at the University of Science and Technology in Beijing. Their findings opened a new field of physics – one that deals with phenomena at unimaginably short time scales, oner billionth of a billionth of a second – attoseconds.

A reasearch team from the Medical University of Vienna, the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETH Zurich) have developed a miniature blood pump to treat children with congenital heart defects. This new miniature pump actively transports blood from the body’s veins to the lungs, thus functionally replacing the missing right ventricle. If approved for human use, the pump will save many lives.

Trump’s tariffs are used as a tool to resolve issues far beyond the area of international trade. In that sense, Trump policies are not protectionist, but rather proactive.

As Trump’s Congo peace accord faces its October test, a troubling question emerges; can you broker lasting peace when the primary combatants aren’t at the table and mineral rights matter more than the million displaced Congolese caught in crossfire?
