Plastic Bottle Recycling in Bangladesh
October 14, 2025, Dhaka, Bangladesh: Workers sort used plastic bottles in a recycling factory in Dhaka, Bangladesh. They help to prevent the bottles from being discarded, sent to landfill, where they can take 1,000 years to biodegrade, or incinerated, which produces toxic fumes. The emission of CO2 and other greenhouse gases will be reduced if recycling takes place in the production of new plastics. This small yet significant act supports environmental sustainability by promoting a responsible cycle of reuse, reducing the strain on natural resources, and safeguarding our ecosystem for future generations.

Picture MUST credit: UC Irvine
Camouflage inspired by the colour changing skin of squids is being developed to help soldiers stay out of sight on the battlefield.
Boffins are developing a stretchable material that mimics the colour-shifting ability of the longfin inshore squid.
They say it could one day help troops slip past visual and thermal detection.
The project is being funded by the USA’s defence research agency, DARPA.
It is a joint study by the University of California, Irvine and the US-based research centre, the Marine Biological Laboratory.
The longfin squid uses light-reflecting cells called iridophores to instantly shift between transparency and colour.
This natural survival tactic now forms the basis of the synthetic stealth material with potential military use.
Inside the cells, coils of a protein called reflectin act like natural mirrors, manipulating how light reflects off the squid’s skin.
The researchers have captured the first 3D images of this nano-architecture revealing the intricate architecture.

Going for gold: coin marks hope of bringing Welsh mine, Clogau St David's, back from the dead.
Clogau St David's, once Britain's richest goldmine, was considered exhausted. But miners are working there again.
Clogau-St. DavidÕs gold mine in Gwynedd, north Wales, which has operated since 1854 and is renowned for producing the gold for the wedding wrings of generations of the royal family. Alba Mineral Resources took over the mine in 2018 and have used new technology to successfully mine new gold for the first time in over quarter of a century.
To mark the milestone, Alba have minted three 1oz Tyn-y-Cornel gold coins which will be auctioned online on 3 April.

'I do an illegal job, stealing': the women forced to scavenge in Bolivia's tin mines
Some work underground, others pick over tailings; all are running huge risks. But in the town of Huanani, the mines are the only way to support a family.
A growing number of women in Bolivia have resorted to mining on an informal basis to provide for their families. Some are widows whose husbands died in mining accidents or of related health problems; some are single mothers; others are wives of men who are alcoholics and subject them to domestic abuse. Some women bring their children with them to work to make more money.
Women who cannot find work often resort to scavenging minerals discarded by miners.

How a monk and a Hippo joined forces to tackle Bangkok’s plastic pollution
Desperate to restore the Chao Praya River to a pristine state, an abbot in the Thai capital began recycling in his temple. Now he has a floating ally in his efforts to clean up the river.
The Chao Phraya River is the largest waterway flowing through central Thailand.
In Bangkok, it is an artery for a network of water buses, ferries and wooden long-tail boats. But it's not just carrying people. According to research by the Rotterdam-based non-profit organisation Ocean Cleanup, the Chao Praya River carries 4,000 tonnes of plastic waste to the sea every year.
Workers sew orange robes for monks from fabric made from recycled plastic at Wat Chak Daeng on July 30, 2024 in Bangkok. The HIPPO project by Seven Clean Seas, in collaboration with Wat Chak Daeng temple, uses a solar-powered vessel to collect plastic waste from Bangkok's Chao Phraya River and recycles it to reduce environmental pollution. Phra Mahapranom Dhammalangkaro, the abbot, leads a project at Wat Chak Daeng that turns plastic waste into monk robes, upcycling around 40 tons of plastic since 2015 and serving as a model for environmental conservation.

Battle lines redrawn as Argentina's lithium mines ramp up to meet electric car demand.
Mining companies accused of colonial 'divide and rule' tactics in their pursuit of the precious metal that lies under the countryÕs salt flats.
The Salinas Grandes is the largest salt flat in Argentina, a biodiverse ecosystem stretching 200 miles and sitting within the lithium triangle along with parts of Chile and Bolivia.
Lithium, a silvery metal known as white gold, is an essential component of mobile phone and electric car batteries; its global demand is predicted to rise more than fortyfold by 2040. But its exploitation has also fuelled a moral debate, one that pits the green energy transition against the rights of local and Indigenous peoples.

Lithium, a silvery metal known as white gold, is an essential component of mobile phone and electric car batteries; its global demand is predicted to rise more than fortyfold by 2040. But its exploitation has also fuelled a moral debate, one that pits the green energy transition against the rights of local and Indigenous peoples.
Salt from the Salinas Grandes is excavated and sold by local indigenous communities. Antonio Calpanchay works with his son excavating and selling salt and says the work is an essential source of income.

The modern-day gold diggers of California: 'It doesn't take much to catch the fever'
Floodwater from a rainy winter and a tropical storm have led to a mini gold rush up and down the state.
California's gold rush lives on with small-scale prospectors and miners. The Gold Diggers club has 10 mining claims filed with the Bureau of Land Management, and it lists rules members must follow: no heavy equipment, for example, and any historic artifacts should remain untouched. A sense of old-school mining culture shines through; the names of the clubÕs claims range from "Wild Bill" to "Black Jack" to "Hot Diggity".
