Real scientists answer your beauty questions

Wir stellen uns Bäume als eine passive Spezies vor, die an einen Ort gebunden ist, dabei gestalten sie ihre Umwelt aktiv. Sie zerkleinern Felsen, verbreitern die Küsten, vergiften gezielt Tiere, kontrollieren Wasserkreisläufe und lösen sogar Waldbrände aus. Seit prähistorischen Zeiten beeinflussen Bäume so ganze Ökosysteme, das Klima und schließlich auch uns Menschen maßgeblich. Die britische Biochemikerin und Journalistin Harriet Rix nimmt uns mit auf eine atemberaubende Weltreise zu Wäldern in Kalifornien, Syrien, Brasilien, im Himalaya, oder auf La Gomera.

What if saving our home planet starts with giving other species space to roam? How can we re-shape our human-built landscapes to serve both people and wildlife? These are the questions that Hillary Rosner attempts to answer in Roam, an urgent quest to figure out how to stitch our fragmented planet back together. It’s about the people trying to reconstruct landscapes where animals can once again move freely, as they did for millennia.

In a bittersweet blend of science and yarn, Carter Niemeyer takes us back to 1996 on a heart-pounding, eye-witness adventure to add 10 more wolves—the Sawtooth pups—to Yellowstone's newly reintroduced wolf packs. So much could go wrong. So much did go wrong. But in the end, the other 10 wolves helped change the character of Yellowstone's wolves forever.

Psilocybin, a natural psychedelic found in certain mushrooms, is emerging as a breakthrough in mental health. Once sidelined due to stigma, it now leads research for treating PTSD, depression, anxiety, and aiding addiction recovery. Early studies show it allows deep introspection, helping people process trauma and negative thought patterns. This guide explores the transformative experiences psilocybin offers, where the mind unlocks kaleidoscopic dimensions, space bends, and time becomes fluid.

Discover the untamed beauty and hidden mysteries of the Rocky Mountains—where every trail leads to wonder, and nature’s grandeur beckons at every turn.

This isn’t just a travel guide—it’s your passport to the wild heart of the Rockies, from the soaring peaks of Rocky Mountain National Park to the explosive geysers of Yellowstone and the enigmatic presence of Devils Tower.

Tim Kammer looks into the history and origins of paranormal claims and pseudoscience.

🎙️ Les Chroniques du Corbeau Lazare – le podcast qui vous emmène à la rencontre des génies du monde aviaire. Corbeaux, corneilles, pies, choucas... Ces oiseaux fascinent autant qu’ils effraient, car ils sont souvent mal compris, mal-aimés et mal traités. Et si nous prenions le temps d’écouter ce qu’ils ont à nous apprendre ? Je suis Véronique Bialoskorski, capacitaire et spécialiste des corvidés, conférencière, et fondatrice de l’association LADeL – Les Amis de Lazare et du site ladel.fr Depuis plus de 15 ans, je me consacre à la médiation entre humains et ...

Welcome to this occasionally mildly interesting farming podcast (it's a science podcast), hosted by award winning podcaster Michael Blanche (200m swimming badge 1978) and not-yet-not-a-real-doctor Paul Allison. We talk about recent research into soil, pasture, cows and sheep. People say that it's the podcast they didn't know they wanted or needed, and they definitely didn't ask for it. It's sometimes a bit sweary (not the big one). It's fine. Cows and effect sounds like cause and effect. It's a play on words. That's funny stuff. Warning: Following legal advice the listener should be aware that...

For centuries, humans ignored sound in the “silent world” of the ocean, assuming that what we couldn’t perceive, didn’t exist. But we couldn’t have been more wrong. Marine scientists now have the technology to record and study the complex interplay of the myriad sounds in the sea. Finally, we can trace how sounds travel with the currents, bounce from the seafloor and surface, bend with the temperature and even saltiness; how sounds help marine life survive; and how human noise can transform entire marine ecosystems.

Since his early days of plant restoration, amateur plant scientist Matt Candeias has been enchanted with flora and the greater environmental ecology of the planet. Now, he looks at the study of plants through the lens of his ever-growing houseplant collection.

What about plants? Don't animals eat other animals? There are no perfect vegans, so why bother? If you're vegan, how many times have you been asked these, and other similarly challenging, questions from non-vegans? Using humor and reason, Sherry F. Colb takes these questions at face value and also delves deeply into the motivations behind them, coming up with answers that are not only intelligent but insightful about human nature.

Ranging from prehistory to the 21st century, The Great Sea is above all the history of human interaction across a region that has brought together many of the great civilizations of antiquity as well as the rival empires of medieval and modern times.

History is not a prerogative of the human species, Edward O. Wilson declares in Half-Earth, a brave work that becomes a radical redefinition of human history. Demonstrating that we blindly ignore the histories of millions of other species, Wilson warns of a point of no return that is imminent.

What if Atlantis wasn't a myth but an early precursor to a new age of great flooding? Across the globe, scientists and civilians alike are noticing rapidly rising sea levels and higher and higher tides pushing more water directly into the places we live, from our most vibrant, historic cities to our last remaining traditional coastal villages. With each crack in the great ice sheets of the Arctic and Antarctica and each tick upward of Earth's thermometer, we are moving closer to the brink of broad disaster.

The European eel, Anguilla anguilla, is one of the strangest creatures nature ever created. Remarkably little is known about the eel, even today. What we do know is that it’s born as a tiny willow-leaf-shaped larva in the Sargasso Sea, travels on the ocean currents toward the coasts of Europe - a journey of about 4,000 miles that takes at least two years. Upon arrival, it transforms itself into a glass eel and then into a yellow eel before it wanders up into fresh water.

« L'oiseau le plus romantique du monde est l'albatros hurleur. Chez lui, tout est vastitude : ses ailes - 3,50 mètres d'envergure -, ses voyages - il passe son temps à sillonner la mer -, sa longévité exceptionnelle - jusqu'à quatre-vingts ans -, ses sentiments amoureux. Les albatros nous donnent une leçon de couple pour éviter l'échec amoureux : il faut choyer la liberté de l'autre. S'éloigner temporairement, éprouver le manque, afin de mieux se retrouver dans une attirance toujours renouvelée...
