· 2026-10-05T16:59:21+00:00A tropical disturbance has been developing over the Bay of Campeche for the last few days. This area now has a high chance of development this week as it moves toward the north. It is too early to speculate of intensity or location, but conditions are only marginally favorable.

· 2026-10-05T13:29:14+00:00Lifeforms creating polymers that are hard to biodegrade, resulting in layers meters thick, covering vast swaths of land. Sounds familiar? This was trees after they started making lignin-rich wood around 380 million years ago. Eventually fungi evolved the ability to break lignin
· 2026-10-05T17:33:15+00:00This is why we have oil and call iirc, it needed to accumulate for a long time before something could break it down. If organisms could break down lignin right away, giant reserves wouldn't have built up.
