Researchers have found that warming temperatures may cause methane emissions from wetlands to rise by helping methane-producing bacteria thrive. The study, conducted in coastal wetlands near the Chesapeake Bay, analyzed soil conditions and found that rising temperatures and CO2 concentrations may be tipping the balance between methane production and consumption, leading to increased emissions. Forecast…
Cluely, a startup founded by two 21-year-old former Columbia University students, has raised $5.3 million in seed funding for its AI tool that allows users to “cheat” on exams, sales calls, and job interviews.
