Europe's climate chief is sounding a stark alarm, warning that the continent must prepare for a world three degrees warmer than pre-industrial levels. New EU rules will require governments to clarify who bears responsibility for climate preparedness, though notably, no new funding is being offered to help ordinary households adapt to increasingly extreme weather.

Scientists identified proteins present in the bloodstream that appear to signal elevated risk years in advance, potentially opening a window for early intervention that could save thousands of lives.
And in the world of software and artificial intelligence, a quietly important idea is gaining traction among developers: the quality of your AI output is only as good as the documentation you feed it. As AI tools become deeply embedded in engineering workflows, poorly written or outdated documentation no longer just slows down humans — it actively misleads the machines working alongside them.
