Pests And Disease Ruin 20% Of The Global Wheat Harvest Each Year - These Scientists Think They Can Fix ItWith war in Ukraine, Europeans are worried a key source of their food, Russia and Ukraine, is at risk. They are right to be concerned. Food is a strategic resource but European countries chose to embrace higher cost lower yield alternatives to modern agriculture at home because they got cheap food from the east. If an additional 290,000,000,000 loaves of bread were available, that would ease the strain worldwide. That is how much wheat is lost each year due to pests and diseases that the so-called organic process can't prevent. But science can. read more read more

Live Cold, Die Old? Body Temperature Exerts A Greater Effect On Lifespan Than Metabolic Rate"Live cold, die old" may soon become folk wisdom if a new study holds up in mice is true for people. Most of us have heard some form of the phrase "live fast, die young" and take it to mean reckless behavior leads to premature death. It certainly does in epidemiology but in science it means that animals with high metabolic rates ("living fast") tend to die sooner than those with slow metabolism. They burn out rather than fade away. read more read more

Biden's immigration mistakesWashington Examiner Editorial: ... Over the last 10 years, across both the Obama and Trump administrations, ICE deported between 226,000 and 410,000 illegal immigrants every year. Under Biden in fiscal year 2021, they deported just 59,000. Even that number is misleading. The Biden DHS memo severely restricting ICE agents' ability to arrest and deport illegal immigrants wasn’t issued until Feb. 18, 2021. More than half of the deportations that occurred in fiscal 2021 actually occurred in the first 4 1/2 months of the fiscal year under former President Donald Trump’s enforcement r... read more
