Earth approaches surpassing 1.5°C of warming: the UN assures it is still possible to reverse it

The average temperature of the planet is approaching the 1.5°C warming limit relative to the pre-industrial era, established by the Paris Agreement. The UN recognizes that temporarily exceeding this threshold will become increasingly likely, but states that there is still a possibility to subsequently reduce the temperature; for this, it would be necessary to accelerate emission cuts, achieve negative net emissions, and remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

German universities strengthen the study and valorization of the archaeological heritage of Vila Pouca de Aguiar

The German universities Hafencity of Hamburg and Frankfurt are collaborating with the Municipality of Vila Pouca de Aguiar on research and valorization work at the Tresminas Roman Mining Complex. Between August 21 and September 4, 12 students of Geodesy and Geomatics from Hafencity University, accompanied for the first time by two Archaeology students from Frankfurt University, are conducting field work that includes georeferencing, photogrammetry and laser scanning of Roman mining infrastructure and the associated water supply system. The team, led by researcher Regula Wahl-Clerici, also carried out the three-dimensional survey of the Church of Santa Eulália de Pensalvos and the Roman altars from Tresminas exhibited at the Martins Sarmento Museum in Guimarães. The partnership allows the creation of detailed digital records for scientific research, conservation and valorization of the municipality's archaeological heritage.

How you talk to your pet may matter more than you think, study says

A study from the University of Arizona investigated whether having a pet is good or bad for health, using recordings of interactions between owners and pets. The researchers point out that previous research presents contradictory results about well-being, and a possible explanation is that it is not enough to know if someone has a pet: the quality and frequency of interaction with the animal may also matter. The developed system, based on 30 variables, was tested with 240 people from groups such as elderly, healthy adults, and couples.
