HDialogue: How large are inequalities in global carbon emissions – and what to do about it?
|
|
Going beyond income and wealth, inequality manifests itself in many dimensions, one of which is in the stark differences in carbon emissions across different countries. Carbon inequality is accelerating the climate crisis and threatening our very existence. A new study “Climate Change & the Global Inequality of Carbon Emissions” released by UNDP and the World Inequality Lab (WIL) provides novel findings on carbon emissions of individuals, based on a newly assembled set of economic inequality and environmental data available on the World Inequality Database.
Check out the latest HDialogue post from WIL Co-Director Lucas Chancel to learn about the key findings and what we can do to close the gap and reduce the burden we place on the planet. |

| Unlike some other organs, if your brain gets sick, you can’t get a transplant – so it pays to look after the one you’ve got. This week’s Guide by a dementia expert shows you how to begin optimising and protecting your precious grey and white matter. In Ideas, an explanation of poetry’s unique emotional power; the fascinating etymology of the word ‘risk’; a new approach to goodness that sees morals as molecules that can be combined; and, the surprisingly difficult task of finding a scientific definition of emotions. Perhaps the exploration of emotion is best left to art? Our latest Film has a go – an enchanting music video moulded in clay, which manages to capture both the persistence of anxiety and the joy of movement and landscape. – Christian Jarrett, Deputy Editor |

Researchers Revise Recipe for Building a Rocky PlanetBy JONATHAN O'CALLAGHAN Over the past decade, researchers have completely rewritten the story of how gas giants such as Jupiter and Saturn form. They’re now debating whether the same process might hold for Earth and the other inner planets.

| | Close Encounter A refrigerator-sized asteroid almost grazed Earth in a near-miss — and scientists never saw it coming, Mindy Weisberger reports for Live Science. Asteroid collisions are a regular occurrence in our geological era, but this wasn’t always the case. By studying impact craters on Earth and the moon, scientists have discovered a less violent time in our cosmic past, as Joshua Sokol reported for Quanta in 2019.
Start From Zero New research may explain why we don’t inherit our parents’ biological age: Shortly after conception, embryonic cells turn back the clock to get younger again. Erin García de Jesús reports for Science News on this rejuvenation process discovered in mice. There are many remaining mysteries about how aging happens throughout life. In 2019 Veronique Greenwood reported for Quanta on a link between overactive neurons and shorter lifespans. |

This tiny tardigrade has been preserved in amber for 16 million years. Researchers were studying the fragment for months before spotting the half-millimetre-long creature in a corner. The discovery is “truly a once-in-a-generation event”, says entomologist Phil Barden. It is only the third fossilized tardigrade to be found, and the first from the Cenozoic, the current geological era. The fossil specimen — a genus and species new to science — has been named Paradoryphoribius chronocaribbeus. |
