Fresh data indicates that populations of hazel dormice across Britain might be experiencing a rebound following a prolonged period of population shrinkage.
Researchers point to elevated temperatures during summer months as a key factor improving survival rates for the species. Further updates are anticipated as the story continues to unfold.
The vandalism of a nearby home heating oil tank resulted in the death of 13 birds from the park.
From floods to wildfires to heatwaves, 2026 is the year it became hard to ignore the impact of climate change on UK weather. But will soaring living costs affect the government’s commitment to tackling climate change?
Brands including Dr Martens, Nike and Coach are among those using recycled materials.
Scientists have observed a bizarre quantum state of matter that combines the structure of a crystal with the frictionless flow of a liquid, all at room temperature. The breakthrough overturns a major practical limitation of exotic quantum experiments and could help bring powerful new light-based computing and sensing technologies closer to reality.
After more than 35 years of research, scientists have uncovered surprising clues about what really drives Lyme disease risk. Contrary to longstanding assumptions, deer populations appear less important than mice, which can fuel a 40% increase in tick numbers the following year. Even acorn production can predict tick population surges two years in advance, while extreme temperatures may be far less deadly to ticks than scientists once believed.
A surprising new study from UCLA suggests that a naturally occurring molecule could help breast cancer survivors overcome the frustrating brain fog and exhaustion that can linger long after treatment ends. Researchers found that women taking an oxaloacetate supplement for eight weeks experienced substantial improvements in memory, concentration, mental clarity, and fatigue.
