Environmentally friendly camels

Cows and sheep exhale considerable amounts of methane when digesting. Until now, the assumption has been that camels produce the same amount of the climate-damaging gas. However, researchers at the University of Zurich and ETH Zurich in Switzerland have now

Food quality decreases as CO2 increases

A study led by the University of California, Davis shows that higher levels of carbon dioxide interfere with plants’ ability to convert nitrate into proteins. The researchers believe this indicates that the nutritional quality of food crops is at risk
