Researchers have long thought this Amazonian dark earth—or terra preta —was created by pre-Hispanic Indigenous civilizations, which have inhabited the region for millennia, but it wasn’t clear how. Now, a multidisciplinary team of scientists and Indigenous partners suggests the ancient Amazonians intentionally created the rich soil thousands of years ago to better foster their crops, and that their modern-day descendants are still making new terra p...

No winners from government rowing back on net-zero policies
Responding to Rishi Sunak’s announcement today (Wednesday) that the government is delaying some important climate targets, UNISON general secretary Christina McAnea said: “There’ll be no winners from this.
