#Mining sub-Saharan Africa is expanding rapidly. This poses a key threat to tropical forests.
"For every hectare of direct deforestation due to the mine footprint, mining triggers, on average, 34 hectares of additional offsite loss within five years through ancillary activities, including agriculture and settlements. Mines extracting cobalt and copper—key energy transition minerals—caused the highest amount of additional deforestation."
Morton et al. (2026). "Mining triggers extensive additional deforestation in sub-Saharan Africa" https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-026-10551-2 🧩 🧵

Bronze Age stone footprints may have sealed friendships, marriages, and alliances in ancient Scandinavia
Thousands of footprints carved into rock surfaces along the coasts of southern Scandinavia have puzzled archaeologists for decades. These ancient engravings, known as podomorphs, were often treated as symbolic images or ritual representations.

Teilhabe ist ein weites Feld. Hörgeräte werden über Apps gesteuert. Was ist aber mit den Menschen, die kein Smartphone besitzen? Für die bleibt es still. Darüber und über andere Aspekte von digitaler Teilhabe haben wir beim #d64footprint in Mainz gesprochen. Danke an @LinHead für die fantastische Orga vor Ort. #D64 #footprint #digitaleteilhabe

"The authors report that the occurrence of extensive deforestation in tandem with climate change will cause the remaining rainforest to lose resilience at global-warming levels of or slightly higher than 1.5 °C — rather than 4 °C — above pre-industrial levels".

"Cascading transition risks towards degraded ecosystems in the #Amazon biome[:] The large majority of the simulated transitions is caused by spatial knock-on effects from increasing drought intensities, leading to long-ranging and self-propelling cascades on scales of hundreds to thousands of kilometres."

#ITByte: The #Carbon #Footprint of #ArtificialIntelligence (AI) is substantial and growing due to the energy-intensive processes involved in training and deploying AI models, particularly large language models (LLMs).
Training a single AI model can emit a large amount of CO2, equivalent to the emissions of multiple cars over their lifetime.
