Ancient bones from a Mexican rock-shelter point to humans arriving earlier than often assumed. Humans may have inhabited what’s now southern Mexico surprisingly early, between 33,448 and 28,279 years ago, researchers say. If so, those people arrived more than 10,000 years before folks often tagged as the first Americans (SN: 7/11/18). Other preliminary evidence puts […]

Only 3 Percent Of Earth’s Land Hasn’t Been Marred By Humans by Jonathan Lambert
Human activity has had a far-ranging impact on the numbers and abundance of other species. The Serengeti looks largely like it did hundreds of years ago. Lions, hyenas and other top predators still stalk herds of wildebeests over a million strong, preventing them from eating too much vegetation. This diversity of trees and grasses support […]
Europe’s Oldest Known Humans Mated With Neandertals Surprisingly Often by Bruce Bower
The two species regularly interbred by about 45,000 years ago. When some of the earliest human migrants to Europe encountered Neandertals already living there around 45,000 years ago, hookups flourished. Analyses of DNA found in human fossils from around that time — the oldest known human remains in Europe — suggest that interbreeding between Homo […]
Humanity Versus The Corporation
As a matter of urgent concern, we, as whomsoever will commit to undersign to act as representatives of humanity and as guardians of planet Earth and future generations of life, humbly and righteously, request that the UK Supreme Court, the International Criminal Court of Justice, the European Court of Human Rights and the United Nations, […]

An Ancient Dog Fossil Helps Trace Humans’ Path Into The Americas by Anushree Dave
An Ancient Dog Fossil Helps Trace Humans’ Path Into The Americas A roughly 10,000-year-old bone found in southern Alaska is among the Americas’ oldest dog fossils. The new finding also adds to an ongoing debate about what route humans took after arriving in North America via a land bridge in Alaska. One long-held idea is […]
‘Wearable Microgrid’ Uses The Human Body To Sustainably Power Small Gadgets by University of California
Nanoengineers at the University of California San Diego have developed a “wearable microgrid” that harvests and stores energy from the human body to power small electronics. It consists of three main parts: sweat-powered biofuel cells, motion-powered devices called triboelectric generators, and energy-storing supercapacitors. All parts are flexible, washable and can be screen printed onto clothing. […]
Delve Into The History Of The Fight For Earth’s Endangered Creatures by Sarah Zielinski
The book Beloved Beasts chronicles past conservation efforts and explores how to keep moving forward. On October 29, 1929, a date best remembered for the infamous Black Tuesday stock market crash, socialite and amateur bird watcher Rosalie Edge attended a meeting of the National Association of Audubon Societies. She was there to ask whether it […]
Economic Benefits Of Protecting Nature Now Outweigh Those Of Exploiting It, Global Data Reveal by University of Cambridge
The economic benefits of conserving or restoring natural sites “outweigh” the profit potential of converting them for intensive human use, according to the largest-ever study comparing the value of protecting nature at particular locations with that of exploiting it. The findings, published in the journal Nature Sustainability, come just weeks after a landmark report by […]

Humans Control Majority Of Freshwater Ebb And Flow On Earth, Study Finds by Brown University
The data reveal that even though human-managed reservoirs comprise only a small percentage of all water bodies, they account for 57% of the total seasonal water storage changes globally. “We tend to think of the water cycle as a purely natural system: Rain and snowmelt run into rivers, which run to the ocean where evaporation […]
Neanderthal And Early Modern Human Stone Tool Culture Co-Existed For Over 100,000 Years by University of Kent
The Acheulean was estimated to have died out around 200,000 years ago but the new findings suggest it may have persisted for much longer, creating over 100,000 years of overlap with more advanced technologies produced by Neanderthals and early modern humans. Previously, a more rapid shift between the earlier Acheulean stone tool designs often associated […]
World’s Oldest Known Cave Painting Found In Indonesia by Issam Ahmed
Archaeologists have discovered the world’s oldest known cave painting: a life-sized picture of a wild pig that was made at least 45,500 years ago in Indonesia. https://phys.org/news/2021-01-world-oldest-cave-indonesia.html

Manmade Mass Now Outweighs Life On Earth: Study by Patrick Galey
For the first time in history manmade materials now likely outweigh all life on Earth, scientists said Wednesday in research detailing the “crossover point” at which humanity’s footprint is heavier than that of the natural world. The weight of roads, buildings and other constructed or manufactured materials is doubling roughly every 20 years, and authors […]
The First Denisovan DNA Outside Siberia Unveils A Long Stint On The Roof Of The World by Bruce Bower
Genetic evidence puts Denisovans on the Tibetan Plateau from 100,000 to 60,000 years ago. Cave sediment possibly dating from 50,000 to 30,000 years ago also yielded Denisovan mitochondrial DNA, the scientists report in the Oct. 30 Science. If further research confirms that age estimate, it raises the likelihood that Denisovans survived on the Tibetan Plateau […]
