According to Geraldo Linhares, president of the State Construction Industry Union, “The construction industry being classified as essential by the governor, and thus not halting ongoing projects, were determining factors for us to continue generating jobs.”

Another factor indicating that the construction industry is in a good phase is the sale of new residential properties both in Belo Horizonte and in the city of Nova Lima, where the indicator showed a growth of 74.34% compared to the previous month.

Scientists are studying GJ 1214 b, a planet 40 light-years away that may concentrate water on a much larger scale than Earth, and this “ocean world” helps to understand how to store, protect, and maintain the planet’s most valuable resource under extreme conditions.

Scientists are investigating Ganymede, a moon larger than Mercury that may hide a global ocean under kilometers of ice, containing more water than all of Earth’s oceans and transforming the largest satellite in the Solar System into a colossal, yet inaccessible, reservoir.

18 scientists issue a warning in a new study: extreme events could affect 36% of terrestrial habitats by 2085 and subject species to heat, fires, droughts, and floods in succession.
