  13. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: ♻️🔥 #Chemical engineers at the University of #Surrey made a proof-of-concept #plastic that turns to gas at about 90º C and reassembles into a solid as it cools.

    A #London-based lab demonstrated the polymer’s reversible behavior by coating paper and then heating the coating away. The team frames the material not as a fix for #pollution but as a step toward more recyclable plastics.

  14. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🐭🧬 A #Rutgers University study found that 84% of house #mice and 35% of #Norway #rats in four northeastern cities carry mutations that may help them survive common poisons. The #research points to an evolutionary arms race driven by decades of #chemical pest control.

  15. For #Indigenous communities in ‘#Alberta,’ the #OilIndustry has left an ugly stain

    Facing #OilSpills, evacuations and #illness — nations downstream of the #OilSands grieve their way of life, as the #corporations polluting their water get richer

    By Brandi Morin, December 7, 2023

    Excerpt: "The rush of the wind and sprays of water add to the thrill as Jason Castor guides his riverboat through a stretch of #LakeAthabasca near #FortChipewyan, in #Treaty8 territories. If he slows down, his boat could get stuck in the mud or even flip over because the water levels in this spot are remarkably low. He steers around buoys, dodges logs and other debris while accelerating to the mouth of the channel, which he knows should be deep enough to navigate at an average speed.

    "While trawling his boat further down the river, Castor points to odd-looking clusters resembling dirty foam floating by.

    " 'There’s just a slurry of a foam that looks like #oil or some kind of #chemical in there,' says Castor, a 42-year-old father, construction business owner and member of the #AthabascaChipewyan #FirstNation (#ACFN).

    "He’s been a traditional hunter, trapper and fisherman for nearly 20 years and has documented strange changes in the water, the land and animals.

    "Something’s going on in the river, he says.

    " 'They say that it’s natural, well, I know that that’s not natural because I’ve been on the river my whole life,' he explains as he points to brown and #WhiteFoam, #OilSheens and other discoloured formations floating on the river.

    "Nowadays, it’s risky to navigate these waterways because of industrial intakes like the #WACBennettDam to the west in B.C.; the #AlbertaOilSands just up the river and impacts from #ClimateChange.

    "The #PeaceAthabascaDelta is the second-largest #freshwater delta in the world.

    "The #AthabascaRiver, and the larger delta, also sit atop the world’s largest known reservoir of #CrudeBitumen.

    "The industry that has sprung up around it drives Alberta’s and Canada’s economy, employing about 138,000 people. In 2021, crude bitumen production totaled approximately 3.3 million barrels per day. The oil sands energy sector including oil sands, conventional #OilAndGas, mining and quarrying is valued at about $18 billion.

    "But while Canada prospers off the oil sands industry, #Indigenous communities downstream are dealing with its #toxic impacts.

    "Not only are the water levels fluctuating, but the health of the water flowing through the Athabasca River is jeopardized."

  17. Here is a problem that has been quietly gnawing at astronomers for decades.

    The standard approach to detecting #life on other worlds involves scanning #exoplanet #atmospheres for #oxygen, #methane, and #ozone, whose presence is difficult to explain without #biology.

    It's a clever idea, but it carries a hidden flaw. That entire shopping list was written by studying Earth. It is, inevitably, a search for life like us.

    The list of ways that #chemistry alone can accidentally mimic these #biosignature gases is growing faster than the list of new ways to detect life.

    Each new false positive scenario demands even more information about the #planet to rule it out, and there is a genuine question about whether that information can ever be gathered exhaustively.

    But there is a solution.

    #Assembly theory doesn't ask what #molecules are present in an #atmosphere. Instead, it asks how hard they were to make.

    Every molecule can be assigned an assembly index, a minimum number of construction steps required to build it from basic #chemical building blocks.

    Simple molecules are easy to assemble by chance, but truly complex ones, requiring many sequential steps, don't arise without something doing a great deal of deliberate selection.

    That something would then be life itself.

  18. My neighbors have subscribed to one of those twice-a-month mosquito-spraying services for over a decade. But the guys always blast it over the fence, coating my nearby strawberries and likely killing small pollinators such as syrphid flies for weeks. I still can't believe this is legal. #pyrethroids #insecticide #chemical #pollinators #mosquitoes #insects #MosquitoShield #swarthmore

  19. My neighbor just had her property fogged by Mosquito Shield, one of those outfits that uses gasoline-powered foggers to coat foliage with insecticides every few weeks. I can always smell it, which means that the chemicals have drifted into my yard and are now killing my insects. Makes my blood boil. Here's my post about pyrethroid sprays in case you can share with friends who are considering signing up for these services. #insects #insecticides #mosquitoes #mosquito #pyrethroids #chemical #pesticides #pollinators #nature
