(Natural News) Though conditions have improved in some areas of the Golden State, California once again tops the list as being the most air-polluted state in the country. But rather than focus on addressing the problem at the local and state level, Governor Jerry Brown has set his sights on tackling the global agenda of […]

(Natural News) Solar energy sounds great in theory doesn’t it? What could possibly be better for the environment than making use of one of Earth’s most abundant natural resources: Sunlight. Plants use sunlight to create energy, and they do so flawlessly. It is no wonder that scientists have been seeking to use the sun as a […]

(Natural News) Could one effective solution to air pollution have been under our noses all along? That seems to be case, according to researchers from Stony Brook University. Dr. Alex Orlov and his colleagues have discovered that concrete structures can adsorb and remove sulfur dioxide from the air, reported ScienceDaily.com. For their study, the researchers […]

(Natural News) Innocently using a washing machine could inadvertently damage the environment. Researchers have now concluded that washing cycles, regardless of number or length, released vast amounts of microplastics from fabrics, which inevitably entered the environment through wastewater. The results were published in Environmental Science and Technology and reflected the first-ever meticulous and systematic investigation […]

(Natural News) Anyone who has breathed the thick air on the streets of Shanghai or has seen photos of smog obscuring the Beijing skyline can confirm that pollution is a serious problem in China. Now, researchers have uncovered the precise extent to which manmade pollution is impacting China’s natural ecosystem, and its effects can be […]

(Natural News) Marine experts from the California State University recently pointed out that microplastic pollution has steadily become a major threat to the world’s oceans. According to the experts, microplastics are especially problematic as they are more challenging to manage due to their microscopic size. Microplastics, which measure less than five millimeters, are degraded plastic fibers that end […]

(Natural News) While the mainstream media and the global elites sensationalize climate change and the impending doom caused by mankind’s “carbon footprint,” there are more serious pollution threats actually impacting human health. The element we should be more concerned about is lead. It’s ignorant to think that an intergovernmental elite should confiscate the wealth of […]

(Natural News) With so much attention being given to global warming these days it easy to blame our changing climate for everything that is going wrong in this world. However, new research by scientists from the University of Queensland revealed that man-made substances and chemicals, not global warming, are the cause of mass contamination of […]

(Natural News) A new technological breakthrough may have the potential to generate power from polluted air. A team of researchers from the University of Antwerp and the University of Leuven in Belgium have recently succeeded in developing a new device capable of filtering and purifying the air while generating power simultaneously. According to the researchers, the device only requires […]

(Natural News) Similar to how cigarette smokers suffer health consequences from the toxins that are carried into the lungs on particles of tobacco, a recent study has shown that tiny nanoparticles carry black carbon diesel fumes into the lungs of people who are exposed to them. Diesel fumes, commonly pushed into the atmosphere via the exhaust from […]
