This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. An international study led from Lund University in Sweden shows that 30 per cent of the energy in a certain type of light-absorbing iron molecule disappears in a previously unknown manner. By closing this loophole, the researchers hope to contribute to the development of more efficient solar cells using this iron-base

Air pollution does not only harm human health. New research shows that birds also experience measurable biological changes after breathing in soot particles from traffic emissions. While the effects of polluted air are well documented in humans, far less is known about how animals with different physiologies respond.
