Researchers discover that the melting of Antarctica is expected to advance across the continent, grow by more than 10% by 2100, and increase the risk of collapse in ice shelves after unprecedented 1 km climate models reveal highly vulnerable areas.

Construction

More than 200 engineers and urban planners are sounding a global alarm by showing that 44 of the 50 largest coastal cities on the planet were built for a sea level that has already been surpassed, leaving drainage systems, flood barriers, tunnels, and underground networks vulnerable to increasingly frequent and expensive-to-contain floods.

The sea may advance faster than imagined: a 1-meter rise in ocean levels could leave up to 132 million people below the waterline, while a flaw present in over 99% of coastal analyses suggests that the real risk is already being underestimated.

Science and Technology

Scientists put the planet on alert by confirming in 2025 that the Greenland ice sheet crossed the point of no return, with irreversible melting already committing at least 27 cm of sea level rise that no climate action can now prevent.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

SpaceX will dock a $843 million vehicle to the International Space Station to push a nearly 420-ton laboratory against the atmosphere and make the debris fall in a controlled manner into the ocean.

China opens the world’s first school where more than 100 humanoid robots from different brands will study together, each movement will be repeated up to 600 times a day and the data will feed a collective brain that will teach all the robots of the future.

Cambodia has started digging a nearly 180-kilometer canal to connect the Mekong River directly to the sea and reduce its dependence on the ports of neighboring Vietnam.

Scientists considered detonating 213 nuclear bombs in the Sahara to create an artificial sea the size of El Salvador, with each explosion being a hundred times more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb, and the goal was to generate more energy than Egypt’s largest hydroelectric plant.
