UN sees world's emissions falling 10% by 2035, far short of 60% goal
Global emissions of planet-warming greenhouse gases are expected to fall by about 10% by 2035, compared with 1990 levels, representing the first decline ever forecast by the United Nations. But the world remains well off course to keeping global warming below the 1.5 C leaders committed to when they signed the Paris Agreement a decade ago.

Climate change is wreaking havoc on World Cultural Heritage sites, study finds
The Great Wall of China, Petra of Jordan, Ellora Caves of India, the traditional Ottoman Houses in Turkey — none of these world-famous historical sites can easily be replaced if damaged. Yet, each of these sits out in the open, inviting hordes of tourists every year, under alarming climate jolts. A recent global assessment revealed […]

Scientists create world's first chip that combines 2D materials with conventional silicon circuitry
For the first time, scientists have created a fully functional memory chip only a few atoms thick and integrated it into conventional chips. This advance could pave the way for more powerful and energy-efficient electronic devices.

WoW: Towards a World omniscient World model Through Embodied Interaction
Humans develop an understanding of intuitive physics through active interaction with the world. This approach is in stark contrast to current video models, such as Sora, which rely on passive observation and therefore struggle with grasping physical causality. This observation leads to our central hypothesis: authentic physical intuition of the world model must be grounded in extensive, causally rich interactions with the real world. To test this hypothesis, we present WoW, a 14-billion-paramet…

More than half of world's coastal settlements retreating from rising seas, study shows
Human settlements around the world are moving inland and relocating away from coastlines as sea levels rise and coastal hazards grow more severe, but a new international study shows the poorest regions are being forced to stay put or even move closer to danger.
