Engineers want to carve through Africa with a giant canal to bring water from the world’s second-largest river to a dying lake on the edge of the Sahara Desert that has already lost 90% of its water.

A giant brown band visible from space, approximately 8,850 kilometers long, connected Africa to America in the Atlantic Ocean, and satellites revealed that it is neither land nor pollution, but the largest accumulation of seaweed in the world, which broke records in 2025.

Workers were opening a modern road in Dover when they found, 6 meters below the asphalt, a 3,500-year-old boat made of stitched oak and plant fibers.

Instead of burning or burying old tires, an American city is transforming about 2,000 of them into the street itself, paving its first sections with a quieter and more durable rubber asphalt.

Consumers eat six times more chicken than in the 1960s, global meat supply quadruples in 60 years, and FAO report reveals the invisible cost on the plate: livestock could drive 80% of the increase in agricultural emissions over the next decade.

Motorcyclist sees excavator arriving at the edge of a river in Bosnia, calls neighbors in minutes and turns a hydroelectric project into a resistance lasting more than 10 years with five expired concessions.

James Webb seals the fate of asteroid 2024 YR4, which once had a 4.3% chance of hitting the Moon, and NASA’s final calculation shows a safe passage at 21,200 kilometers from the satellite on December 22, 2032.

It was supposed to be just another Roman coin, but Kevin, with his metal detector, found a 17-century-old gold ring, hidden along with 297 coins, ceramics, and lead objects in Somerset.

European Union looks again at Brazilian seafood after a nearly 8-year ban and may unlock a coveted market for lobster, tuna, tilapia, and shrimp.

Mother and daughter face grief in the countryside, keep alive the dream started by five generations of beekeepers, and transform the rare white honey from Campos de Cima da Serra into a story of family succession, resilience, and work among the bees in the interior of Rio Grande do Sul.

Gás do Povo releases free refills for gas cylinders this Wednesday, June 10, for families with two or three people in the Cadastro Único, and the voucher can be used until July 9 at authorized resellers of the program, which reaches 15 million households.
