# ‘n Wêreldwye studie het lugbesoedeling aan DNS-mutasies gekoppel wat longkanker veroorsaak, veral in mense wat nog nooit gerook het nie. Navorsers het bevind hoër besoedelingsvlakke stem ooreen met meer mutasies wat kanker veroorsaak, insluitend in die TP-53-geen, wat algemeen aan rook gekoppel word. Die studie, wat 871 longkankerpasiënte oor vastelande betrek het, het ook […]
# Die Verenigde Koninkryk is meer as halfpad na ʼn netto-nul-koolstof-ekonomie met aansienlike vordering na skoner energie en toenemende verkope van elektriese voertuie. Positiewe punte soos goedkoper, beter elektriese voertuie wys selfgedrewe verandering is moontlik. Gebruik van hittepompe is egter stadig en bedreig teikens vir 2030. Dit kan verander as aanvraag, vertroue en bekostigbaarheid toeneem. […]
# A global study has linked air pollution to lung cancer-driving DNA mutations, particularly in people who have never smoked. Researchers found higher pollution levels correspond to more cancer-promoting mutations, including in the TP53 gene, commonly linked to smoking. The study, involving 871 lung cancer patients across continents, also found air pollution shortens telomeres, a […]
# Minstens vier mense is dood en tientalle word vermis nadat ‘n veerboot naby die Indonesiese vakansie-eiland Bali gesink het.

Owerhede sê 29 oorlewendes is gered en die soektog […]
# The UK is over halfway to a net zero carbon economy, with significant progress driven by cleaner energy and rising electric vehicle sales. Positive tipping points like cheaper, better electric cars show self-propelling change is possible. Yet, heat pump adoption remains slow, risking 2030 climate targets. Boosting demand, installer confidence, and making heat pumps […]
# Oekraïne waarsku ʼn onderbreking in Amerikaanse wapenbesendings sal Rusland aanmoedig om die oorlog te verleng, wat al langer as vier jaar duur. Die Withuis het vroeër gesê hy het sommige wapenbesendings gestaak. Woordvoerder Anna Kelly sê daar is besluit om Amerikaanse belange eerste te stel ná die Departement van Verdediging se hersiening van militêre […]
# At least four people have died and dozens are missing after a ferry sank off Indonesia’s tourist island of Bali. The National Search and Rescue Agency says the boat was carrying 53 passengers and 12 crew members when it sank on its way to Bali from the eastern coast of the island of Java. […]
# Ukraine has warned an interruption of US weapon shipments will encourage Russia to prolong the war, now in its fourth year. The White House earlier said it had cut off some weapons deliveries to Ukraine. Spokesperson Anna Kelly says the decision was taken to put America’s interests first following a Defence Department review of […]
# Die direkteur van Gaza se Indonesiese Hospitaal en talle familielede is in ʼn Israelse lugaanval op sy huis in Gaza-stad dood.
