Specialist warns: you should (really) not put these foods in your freezer

Experts warn that many foods should not be frozen, especially dairy products like milk, cream and cheeses, which can undergo significant changes in texture, flavor and consistency due to the separation of water and fat during freezing. Fresh and creamy cheeses are particularly affected, becoming grainy and losing their creaminess, while harder varieties resist better but may become dry and crumbly. In addition to quality changes, the expansion of dairy products during freezing can cause packaging to rupture. Experts recommend that, instead of freezing, proper refrigeration should be used or shopping should be better planned to avoid waste.

A population of the Mindoro bleeding-heart, an endemic bird species of the Philippines considered possibly extinct for about 20 years, has been rediscovered in the wild following photographic records that confirm its survival. The species, classified as "critically endangered" since 1994 and included on the Lost Birds List, had not been sighted by scientists since 2005, fueling fears that it had disappeared forever. The rediscovery represents hope for the conservation of this unique bird of the Philippine forests.

The bizarre 1977 experiment that transported a one-ton ice block from Alaska to Iowa

In 1977, Saudi Arabia proposed an unusual idea to the United States to combat water scarcity: transporting icebergs from Alaska to arid regions. To test the feasibility of this project, a one-ton ice block was transported from Alaska to Iowa, where around 200 specialists from 18 countries gathered in October 1977 for the First International Conference on the Utilization of Icebergs. Engineers, marine biologists, government officials and businessmen discussed the possibility of turning the gigantic freshwater reserves stored in polar ice into a supply source for territories with limited water resources, although the proposal was simple to conceive but extremely complex to execute.
