This month is on track to be the hottest month ever recorded. 🔥🌎⚠

Data shows that the first 3 weeks of July shattered temperature records.

This chart shows the globally averaged surface air temperature for 1 - 23 July for each year from 1940 to 2023.

#GeekOutMail

This would be a curated weekly subscription where you receive letters from various experts in niche fields who get to geek out about the coolest parts of their favorite topic.

It could be a wide variety of topics, ranging from underappreciated deep sea animals to collectible coins to sailings ships to comic book history to heritage apple orchards to... whatever. Really. One of my favorite things to do is listen to people talk about things they adore.

‘Something weird is going on’: search for answers as Antarctic sea ice stays at historic lows. 🧊🗻

Some scientists fear the ‘shocking’ shift is the beginning of a global heating-linked collapse of the ice that could have alarming knock-on effects.

Most of the excess atmospheric heat from climate change is passed back to the ocean. 🌎🔥🌊

As a result, upper ocean heat content has increased significantly over the past few decades.

The world has just broken temperature records and millions of people are suffering because of extreme weather events. 🔥🌎

But the world's biggest oil companies continue to do everything they can to maximize their profits.

The future of labs may have a lot more AI and automation but I'm willing to be the same management problems will remain⁠

Climate change: New idea for sucking up CO2 from air shows promise

A new way of removing carbon from the air is up to three times more effective than current technology.

One thing we know for sure: building and widening highways always succeeds in helping sell more cars, gas and suburban sprawl; burning more public budgets; and increasing GHG emissions. So if those are your goals, it’s the perfect thing to do.

Just don’t expect it to reduce traffic.

Part of me is tickled to death that a grammar book for adults is the #1 New Release in Science for Kids. Again.

The other part of me is annoyed. Make it go back to #1 in Technical Writing Reference! Or back to Top 50 of all Science & Math Books, at least!

Does MDMA damage the brain's white matter?

White matter forms the bulk of the deep parts of the brain and affects learning and brain functions. Animal studies have suggested that chronic MDMA use can degrade white matter.

Luckily, this new study in humans compared 39 chronic MDMA users with 36 non-users and found no evidence of white matter degradation in the MDMA users.

White matter alterations in chronic MDMA use: Evidence from diffusion tensor imaging and neurofilament light chain blood levels - PubMed

3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, "Ecstasy") is a serotonin- and noradrenaline-releasing substance, currently among the most widely used illicit substances worldwide.

Could psychedelics also be useful for those without mental health issues? The way psychedelics work suggest so...

"The improvement participants with depression and PTSD experience [after therapy with MDMA or psilocybin] appear related to the profound perspective changes experienced and seem unlike the improvements seen in the currently available care paradigms."

What do you think?

Several studies have coupled the safe administration of psychedelic compounds in a controlled environment after several hours of preparation of study participants and followed by multiple sessions to integrate the psychedelic experience.
