Several EU countries including France and Italy on Tuesday upped pressure on Brussels to ditch fines for embattled European carmakers that do not meet carbon emission reduction targets in 2025.
The issue was discussed at a meeting of European Union environment ministers in the Belgian capital, which came as the bloc's automotive industry is facing a deep crisis, according to diplomatic sour

Seed aging poses a significant challenge for agricultural industries and seed banks, often leading to reduced germination rates and weaker seedling growth. This issue not only impacts economic stability but also hinders efforts to preserve genetic diversity. Researchers at the University of Arkansas, led by Dr. Jun Zhu, have introduced an innovative solution: a solar-powered plasma water generat

Researchers have demonstrated the ability to steal an artificial intelligence (AI) model without hacking into the device where the model was running. The technique is novel in that it works even when the thief has no prior knowledge of the software or architecture that support the AI.
"AI models are valuable, we don't want people to steal them," says Aydin Aysu, co-author of a paper on the

What's the best way to precisely manipulate a material's properties to the desired state? It may be straining the material's atomic arrangement, according to a team led by researchers at Penn State. The team discovered that "atomic spray painting" of potassium niobate, a material used in advanced electronics, could tune the resulting thin films with exquisite control. The finding, published in A

Princeton engineers have developed an easily scalable 3D printing technique to manufacture soft plastics with programmed stretchiness and flexibility that are also recyclable and inexpensive - qualities not typically combined in commercially manufactured materials.
In an article in the journal Advanced Functional Materials, a team led by Emily Davidson reported that they used a class of wi

Tsunami-induced disruptions to port operations can have devastating effects on global trade. While the 2011 Tohoku tsunami caused $12 billion in direct damage to port facilities and ships, its indirect impact on seaborne trade cost approximately $3.4 billion per day in economic losses.
Shipping drives over 80% of global trade, and interruptions to port networks can reverberate through glob

Physicists have long theorized the existence of a unique state of matter known as a quantum spin liquid. In this state, magnetic particles do not settle into an orderly pattern, even at absolute zero temperature. Instead, they remain in a constantly fluctuating, entangled state. This unusual behavior is governed by complex quantum rules, leading to emergent properties that resemble fundamental a

Photosynthesis is one of the most efficient natural processes for converting light energy from the sun into chemical energy vital for life on earth. Proteins called photosystems are critical to this process and are responsible for the conversion of light energy to chemical energy.
Combining one kind of these proteins, called photosystem I (PSI), with platinum nanoparticles, microscopic par

Canada should accelerate its transition to green energy by focusing on large utility-scale solar projects, according to a new report from Simon Fraser University's Clean Energy Research Group (CERG).
The report, published in *Solar Compass*, evaluates the current state of solar energy in Canada, contrasting the benefits of expansive utility-scale solar farms with smaller, decentralized sys
