Extensive studies have associated oats and oatmeal with plenty of heart-healthy benefits, such as lowering cholesterol (both total and “bad” LDL cholesterol) and helping with weight control.
Oatmeal has a host of vitamins and minerals. Two examples: According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, a one-cup serving of cooked oatmeal has about 1.8 milligrams of vitamin B1, or thiamin. That’s close to 15% of what an adult needs each day. It also has 1.36 mg of manganese, which is 59% of the daily recommendation for men and 76% for women. Manganese has roles in immunity, blood clotting and the way cholesterol and blood sugar are metabolized.
But that’s not what makes oats stand out, Rebello said. That same cup of cooked oatmeal has just 166 calories and nearly 4 grams of dietary fiber.
If you know anything about beavers, it’s probably that they build dams. These giant structures made of sticks, stones, and mud can reach heights up to 10 feet (3 meters) and lengths averaging 20 feet (6 meters) — though the biggest one ever found was significantly larger and could be seen from space. Dams completely alter the landscape, flooding the surrounding area and creating wetlands. It’s one reason beavers have often been considered pests that can cause serious damage when they build dams too close to homes or roads.
But scientists have for decades understood beavers’ importance as “ecosystem engineers.” And as the climate crisis continues to worsen, newer studies are finding that beavers play a vital role in dampening its effects, especially in areas prone to fire, drought, and even heat waves. To build a more resilient future, it might be best to look to the beavers.
Clinging to my sleeve, this newly emerged Monarch wings dried. It is a process of excreting the fluids pumped into wings, crumpled from folding within the chrysalis, to expand them. The clear drips of water on my arm are this fluid.

Here is a video from this year, a Monarch emerging from the chrysalis, then expanding crumpled wings. Notice, this butterfly has a problem: once emerged the butterfly swings back and forth continually as it clings to the chrysalis. While interesting to us, the movement is caused from a missing front leg. Monarch butterflies have four legs, this butterfly is missing the right front leg, the imbalance causes the swinging movement. Freshly emerged, a large, distended with fluid abdomen is prominent between small, crumpled wings. With time, the abdomen pumps fluid, expanding the wings. Over several hours…
Prilikom Samita o održivom razvoju u Johanesburgu, ruski borci za zaštitu životne sredine iznijeli su neobičnu optužbu protiv vlade u Moskvi – da planira izgradnju skijaških centara u, po svemu sudeći, ljudskom aktivnošću najmanje zagađenoj oblasti u Evropi. U najzapadnije oblasti kavkaskih planina, samo nekoliko desetina kilometara udaljenih od obale Crnog mora, ljudsko biće nije kročilo vijekovima. Tamo je, zarad uživanja moskovskog plemstva, 1882. godine, osnovano Kubansko lovište, koje je ime dobilo po jednoj od najvećih rijeka u ovoj oblasti, ali car je odlučio da do 1906. godine zemlju vrati njenim stanovnicima. Međutim, ovaj velikodušni gest izazvao je protest Akademije nauka koja je instistirala da se na tom području osnuje prirodni park za naučna istraživanja. Kao posljedica toga, Sovjeti su 1924. godine osnovali Kavkaski prirodni rezervat, a mnogo godina kasnije i nacionalni park Soči i druge manje zone za očuvanje prirode.
U čitavom zapadnom Kavkazu, koji zauzima površinu od preko…
