Forests can appear stationary and quiet, but there's an active world of communication hidden under the ground—referred to as the "Wood Wide Web." Plants and trees communicate through underground fungi, which are also referred to as mycorrhizal networks. Trees communicate with each other through this system, sending chemical warnings to neighbors regarding pests or drought. An attacked tree may emit chemicals that stimulate others around them to increase defense. Some actually send...

Tardigrades or water bears are tiny animals that are almost impossible to kill. Small as they may be, they are able to endure some of the harshest conditions discovered so far—like outer space! Tardigrades can survive high doses of radiation, boiling temperatures, freezing temperatures, and crushing pressures. How? They possess the peculiar talent for entering a condition referred to as cryptobiosis, where they desiccate to almost all of their water content and form a small, dried-up...

It may sound unbelievable, but recent research suggests that plants can sense and respond to sound—even though they don’t have ears. While they don’t “hear” in the way humans do, they can detect vibrations from their environment. For instance, research has determined that certain plants develop more rapidly when subjected to music or soft vibrations. Others, such as certain flowers, yield sweeter nectar when they "listen" to the buzzing of pollinators such as...

Whispers of the Earth Beneath the sky so vast and blue,The forests sing, the rivers too.But silence creeps where once was song,For nature’s voice has waned too long. The trees that danced in morning light,Now fall like stars into the night.The oceans cry with salted tears,Their depths now echo human fears. The winds that carried seeds so free,Now choke on smoke where life should be.The creatures roam with nowhere left—Of homes and hope, they are bereft. But still, the earth is not...

Save the Trees Beneath the sun, beneath the stars,Stand trees with healing in their scars.They breathe for us, they guard the land,Yet fall beneath a careless hand. Their roots hold soil, their leaves the rain,They shield us from the wind’s refrain.But axes swing and fires rise,And forests vanish from the skies. O let us wake before too late,Undo the path of such a fate.Plant every seed with mindful care,And water hope that hangs in air. For every tree that stands todayKeeps storms and...

  We tend to consider sand to be merely a beachy nuisance, but it's one of the most significant natural materials on our planet. Sand is created over thousands of years as rocks are weathered and eroded away. But what appears simple is really vital to modern society.   Sand is the main ingredient in concrete, glass, and even computer chips. Without it, cities wouldn't rise, roads wouldn't stretch, and smartphones wouldn't exist. Indeed, the demand for sand worldwide is so high that...

From radiant jellyfish in deep-sea oceans to flashing fireflies in your yard, bioluminescence is the quality of living organisms to emit light. What Is Bioluminescence?Bioluminescence is a natural chemical reaction where organisms generate light through a reaction between a light-producing molecule (luciferin) and an enzyme (luciferase). The reaction creates a soft, cool light—usually blue or...

I had my thoughts on cleaner energy which I'll like to share you all ! We know many clean energy sources like- 1) Nuclear Energy - This energy can be produced using uranium reactors with boron rods to cool nuclear reactors down. We must use this energy source because it is clean. But, this has a downside. Operating these reactors with less caution can cause nuclear accidents which result to loss of lives and property. Therefore it is sadly not the best clean energy source as not handling it...
