Declared extinct in 2025: A look back at some of the species we lost
Some species officially bid us farewell this year. They may have long been gone, but following more recent assessments, they’re now formally categorized as extinct on the IUCN Red List, considered the global authority on species’ conservation status. We may never see another individual of these species ever again. Or will we? Slender-billed curlew This […]

So @… makes these wonderful, personal videos highlighting individual people and families in Gaza with little glimpses into their lives, their struggles, and what help they need.
If you’re not following her, please do. She’s a gem and we’re very lucky to have her on the fediverse.

PS. She’s also helping out with Gaza Verified (and I’ll extend a mo…

If you're on your way out or into CCH right now, it's a good day to train your Tux-step.

China’s CO2 emissions have now been flat or falling for 18 months.
The rapid adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) saw CO2 emissions from transport fuel drop by 5% year-on-year, while there were also declines from cement and steel production.
While emissions from the power sector were flat year-on-year, a big rise in the chemical industry’s CO2 output offset reductions elsewhere.

Analysis: China’s CO2 emissions have now been flat or falling for 18 months - Carbon Brief
China’s carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions were unchanged from a year earlier in the third quarter of 2025, extending a flat or falling trend that started in March 2024.

Worth a follow and support. One of the handful of folks I followed over here from the old place. Fresh insight is in exceedingly short supply these days. @… https://mastodon.so…

The minimum degree of minimal 2-extendable claw-free graphs
A connected graph $G$ with a perfect matching is said to be $k$-extendable for integers $k$, $1 \leq k\leq \frac{|V(G)|}{2}-1$, if any matching in $G$ of size $k$ is contained in a perfect matching of $G$. A $k$-extendable graph is minimal if the deletion of any edge results in a graph that is not $k$-extendable. In 1994, Plummer proved that every $k$-extendable claw-free graph has minimum degree at least $2k$. Recently, He et al. showed that every minimal 1-extendable graph has minim…
