Plan for Norfolk megafarm rejected by councillors over environmental concerns
Application, submitted by Cranswick, would have created one of the largest industrial poultry and pig units in Europe
A megafarm that would have reared almost 900,000 chickens and pigs at any one time has been blocked by councillors in Norfolk over climate change and environmental concerns.
Councillors on King’s Lynn and West Norfolk borough council unanimously rejected an application to build what would have been one of the largest industrial poultry and pig units in Europe.

Top genome scientists to map DNA sequence of invertebrate winner 2025
Sanger Institute’s Tree of Life team say genomes offer invaluable insight into how species will fare under climate crisis
“We are following the ‘invertebrate of the year’ series with bated breath,” began the email that arrived in the Guardian’s inbox last week.
Mark Blaxter leads the Sanger Institute’s Tree of Life programme, a project that sequences species’ DNA to understand the diversity and origins of life on Earth. But far more importantly, Blaxter and his team are superfans of our invertebrate of the year competition and have offered to map the genome sequence of whoever wins this year.

Revealed: Trump’s fossil-fuel donors to profit from data-center boom and green rollbacks
Energy Transfer, a top backer of US president, has received requests to power even more energy-guzzling data centers
Oil and gas barons who donated millions of dollars to Donald Trump’s presidential campaign are on the cusp of cashing in on the administration’s support for energy-guzzling data centers – and a slew of unprecedented environmental rollbacks.
Energy Transfer, the oil and gas transport company behind the Dakota Access pipeline, has received requests to power 70 new data centers – a 75% rise since Trump took office, according to a new investigation by the advocacy non-profit Oil Change International (OCI) and the Guardian.

Climate crisis on track to destroy capitalism, warns top insurer
Action urgently needed to save the conditions under which markets – and civilisation itself – can operate, says senior Allianz figure
The climate crisis is on track to destroy capitalism, a top insurer has warned, with the vast cost of extreme weather impacts leaving the financial sector unable to operate.
The world is fast approaching temperature levels where insurers will no longer be able to offer cover for many climate risks, said Günther Thallinger, on the board of Allianz SE, one of the world’s biggest insurance companies. He said that without insurance, which is already being pulled in some places, many other financial services become unviable, from mortgages to investments.

US banks predict climate goals will fail – but air conditioning firms will thrive
Reports predict global heating will bring catastrophes and that air conditioning market could grow by 41%
The world is on track for disastrous global heating – but this will create profits for some air conditioning companies, according to forecasts by leading Wall Street financial institutions.
Recent reports by Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan Chase and the Institute of International Finance all make clear the finance sector considers the Paris climate agreement limiting global temperatures, signed a decade ago by nearly 200 nations, is effectively dead and investors should plan accordingly.

Big, biodiverse and beautiful: can Romania’s centuries-old giant haystacks survive modern farming?
Traditional methods benefit hundreds of species but as new agricultural techniques take over, the distinctive haystacks mark a vanishing way of life
Golden haystacks shaped like teardrops have been a symbol of rural life in Romania for hundreds of years. The 3-metre-high (10ft) stacks are the culmination of days of hard work by families, from children up to grandparents, in the height of summer.
Together they cut waist-high grass, leave it to dry in the hot sun and stack it up to be stored over the winter, combing the hay downwards to protect it from harsh winds, heavy rain and snow. Throughout winter, clumps of it are removed from the haystacks and fed to livestock.

In the event of a hung parliament, one wildcard has been largely overlooked – the Nationals
If Peter Dutton needs to court the crossbench to form minority government after the election, he would risk putting his Coalition partner offside on climate and environment policy

If the Coalition wins the election, it will face a concerted push from its junior partner, the Nationals, to weaken and even abandon climate initiatives and promote coal as an interim measure in the Coalition’s nuclear power plan.
That would put Peter Dutton and the Liberals between a rock and a hard place should he seek to form a minority government, given that might require the support of environmentally minded crossbenchers.

More than beautiful: the beloved monarch butterfly is one of the world’s great migrators
The hardy travellers can fly for 3,000 miles from the north-east US and Canada to roost in their millions in Mexico
Imagine your body was the weight of a raisin, supported by just a pair of flimsy, gossamer wings. Now imagine that you had to fly for 3,000 miles, avoiding storms, highways and predators, to ensure your species continued.
Could you do it? Unless you’re a monarch butterfly, fortunately you won’t have to face such a challenge.

Invertebrate of the year 2025: vote for your favourite
Since February we’ve gone in search of the invertebrate of the year. Now it’s your chance to choose
Invertebrates – animals without spines – make up the vast majority of life on Earth. The Guardian’s invertebrate of the year contest celebrates the unsung heroes of the planet. Readers have nominated thousands of amazing animals, we’ve chosen a shortlist of 10, and now you can vote for your favourite.
1. The tongue-biting louse burrows in through a fish’s gills, clings to its tongue and eats what the fish eats.

The secret to finding one of the most endangered bumblebees in the US? Dogs
Experts are desperate to analyse rusty patched bumblebee nests for information that might help save them. But they are extremely hard to find – unless you’re a trained conservation canine
- Words and photographs by Anne Readel in Somers, Wisconsin
On a summer day in Somers, Wisconsin, Dave Giordano heard an unexpected buzzing in his back yard. What he found shocked him – a rusty patched bumblebee nest. The discovery was so rare it made the local news.
Once widespread across the midwest and eastern US, the rusty patched bumblebee has seen its population plunge by nearly 90%, prompting its listing in 2017 as the first federally endangered bumblebee in the US.

Izloženost ftalatima tijekom trudnoće utječe na metabolizam novorođenčeta
Nedavno objavljena studija otkrila je da majčina izloženost ftalatima tijekom trudnoće može utjecati na metabolizam i razvoj mozga novorođenčeta. Ftalati su skupina naširoko korištenih plastifikatora koji se obično nalaze u raznim kozmetičkim proizvodima i proizvodima za osobnu njegu, poput šampona, sapuna i deterdženata, kao i plastičnih posuda za hranu i piće.

Prehrana bogata mastima povezana s povećanim rizikom od metastaza raka dojke
Pretilost je povezana s povećanim rizikom od razvoja raka dojke, te većom vjerojatnošću da se rak proširi na druge organe – metastazira. No uzroci ove povezanosti još uvijek nisu dobro shvaćeni. Sada je nova studija pružila nove uvide otkrivši da prehrana bogata mastima aktivira mehanizme koji olakšavaju metastaze.

Novi lijek vraća vid regeneracijom živaca mrežnice
Vid je jedno od najvažnijih ljudskih osjetila, no ipak je više od 300 milijuna ljudi u svijetu u opasnosti od gubitka vida zbog raznih bolesti mrežnice. Iako je nedavni napredak u liječenju bolesti mrežnice uspješno usporio napredovanje bolesti, do sada nije razvijena učinkovita terapija za vraćanje već izgubljenog vida. No znanstvenici s KAIST-a uspješno su razvili novi lijek za vraćanje vida.
