Meat and dairy industry’s attempt to change how we measure methane emissions would let polluters off the hook

Credit: CC0 Public Domain Lobbyists from major polluting industries were out in force at the recent UN climate summit, COP28. Groups representing the livestock industry, which is responsible for around 32% of global methane emissions, want to increase their use of a new way of measuring these emissions that lets high polluters evade their responsibility to make big emissions cuts.

Lamborghini will measure your heart rate as you burn rubber around the track

Lamborghini announced new telemetry features that allow supercar owners to better keep track of their very fast vehicles — and themselves.The automaker unveiled Telemetry X, its new real-time performance and biometric data-tracking system, at CES in Las Vegas. The system consists of several features, including Remote Garage, Biometric Data, and Digital Co-Pilot, aimed at letting wealthy supercar owners keep better track of their laps.Remote Garage is basically a remote coaching feature, enabling a 5G cellular connection…

Most Precise Measure of Dark Energy Confirms Universe Won’t Tear Apart : ScienceAlert

Over ten years ago, the Dark Energy Survey (DES) began mapping the Universe to find evidence that could help us understand the nature of the mysterious phenomenon known as dark energy.I'm one of more than 100 contributing scientists that have helped produce the final DES measurement, which has just been released at the 243rd American Astronomical Society meeting in New Orleans.Dark energy is estimated to make up nearly 70 percent of the observable Universe, yet we still don't understand what it is. While its nature…

Singapore telcos to let subscribers block international calls in new anti-scam measure

Those figures point to one blocked call for every four incoming calls from international numbers, IMDA said, adding that it has been working with local telcos to roll out various measures to curb scams. These measures have included the blocking of international calls that clocked unusually high frequency, which typically indicated they were triggered by automated scan systems. International calls with a falsified "+65" prefix in the caller ID indicator were also directly blocked by telcos.Also: The best VPN services

How Scientists Measure Stellar Distances Through Star Music

The Gaia mission, essential in mapping nearly two billion stars, is being further refined by EPFL’s research using asteroseismology. This innovative approach compares Gaia’s measurements with asteroseismic data to improve the accuracy of celestial distance measurements, contributing significantly to astronomical research and future space missions. Credit: SciTechDaily.com A team of astronomers has used asteroseismology, or the study of stellar oscillations, to accurately measure the distance of stars from the Earth. Their…

How we deploy AI will be ‘true measure of our humanity’

Word of the year indeed — it seems even the Catholic Church can’t stop talking about AI. The events unfolding in the Middle East and the continued war in Ukraine has made the well-worn Christmas wish “peace on earth” even more acutely felt than normal (whatever that is). However, that the Pope would throw AI into the mix might have been a little less expected.  The Pope’s message for the World Day of Peace (January 1) is titled “Artificial Intelligence and Peace”. While he expresses cautious…

7 key metrics to measure content effectiveness

Measuring content performance in the ever-evolving world of digital marketing is a critical factor for success.Beyond the familiar metrics that have long-defined content performance, effective content strategy is more nuanced and requires more thought to measure success. Contrary to the common belief that low traffic equates to ineffective content, the issue might lie in ranking or conversion, not necessarily the quality of the content itself. In his

How to Measure the Impact From a Collision

Not only do I get the "shape" of the acceleration curve for the colliding cart, but I also get a maximum acceleration of –6.67 meters per second squared. With that acceleration and the mass of the cart (0.566 kilogram), we get a maximum impact force of 3.73 newtons.This isn't quite the same value I obtained from the force sensor—and that's OK. There are two main reasons why the maximum force is different with this method. First, I've only collected a position point every 1/30th of a second, because my video frame rate was…

A cost-efficient and transparent method to measure carbon dioxide emission estimates using GOSAT

The 2018 data shows how much CO2 the energy sector in Mongolia emitted, comparing two calculation methods. One is Mongolia's BUR2 using the bottom-up approach (left) and EDGAR (right). The other is the calculation result from this study using the hybrid approach (center) based on the top-down approach. The green represents CO2 emissions for all of Mongolia, while the red indicates emissions from Ulaanbaatar city. Note that for BUR and top-down data, the…
