Methane Pollution Has Cheap, Effective Solutions That Aren’t Being Used

wired.com Umair Irfan 2026-03-06 17:00:00

This story originally appeared on Vox and is part of the Climate Desk collaboration. Odorless and colorless, methane is a gas that is easy to miss—but it’s one of the most important contributors to global warming. It can trap up to 84 times as much heat as carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, though it breaks down much faster. Measured over 100 years, its warming effect is about 30 times that of an equivalent amount of carbon dioxide. That means that over the course of decades, it takes smaller a

Augmented Vertex Block Descent (AVBD)

Augmented Vertex Block Descent (AVBD) Vertex Block Descent is a fast physics-based simulation method that is unconditionally stable, highly parallelizable, and capable of converging to the implicit Euler solution. We extend it using an augmented Lagrangian formulation to address some of its fundamental limitations. First, we introduce a mechanism to handle hard constraints with infinite stiffness without introducing numerical instabilities. Second, we substantially improve the convergence in th

Drinks in glass bottles contain more microplastics than those in other container

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-03-07 03:01:34

The aim of the ANSES study was to determine the level of microplastic contamination in drinks such as water, soda, iced tea, wine and beer; it also sought to establish the impact of their containers on this level. For most of the drinks studied, the level of microplastics was found to be higher in glass bottles than in other containers. For example, on average, in glass bottles of cola, lemonade, iced tea and beer, there were around 100 microplastic particles per litre. This number was five to 5
