Every industrial or waste management action takes place in the fight against Global Warming. This study has analysed in detail the emissions of methane associated with the Oil & Gas industry in the Texas-New Mexico region, with a new method that combines land measurements and images from the satellite TROPOMI . This work provides us with new information about this particular activity and we hope it results interesting for you all.

A Comparison with Conventional Biodegradable Mulch Film  Developing a new series of biodegradable materials coming from renewable sources has become a key field in the fight against global pollution. Biofilms obtained from seaweed lead the group of plastic-like materials to be used in packaging; this article presents a new proposal of material and an accurate explanation of typical characterization process of the plastic and the comparison with a current available biopolymer .  Anchor / Google Podcasts / iVoox / Spotify & much more SPANISH AUDIO Published in Polymers on 26 th January 2019 Hasan M., E.W.N.

Despite the attention COVID-19 and SARS-CoV-2 have received, there are still a lot of questions to answer between the scientific community, but even more in the general population. There are several points to clarify about the behaviour of the virus , the evolution of the pandemic and the possible solutions and, in order to bring light to this last aspect, it has been developed some vaccines following different approaches: in this article, the researchers analyze the types of vaccines and some pros and cons of each one. We hope it helps you to understand a little bit better this particular moment of the global situation.

The knowledge and the control of the circadian rhythms has a big impact in society on the XXI Century. It’s well known that the light determines the activation/desactivation of the secretion of molecules that make us more or less active along the different periods of time of the day, this study sets one more brick in the bridge of the research about how the color or the intensity of the radiation modifies our behavior.
