How To Overcome Leadership Battles
In times of social rancor and strife, most will fight each other, but societies are saved by those who think about the bigger issue.
There is a lesson humans could learn from wasps. Polistes canadensis wasps are more like China than a democracy, so when their ruler dies, power struggles and social turmoil result. Amidst the violence and chaos, individuals compensate by helping the group rather than fighting each other.

Thousands Of Unpublished Studies Show Why Conservation Efforts Miss The Mark
Europe alone has so much unpublished, un-catalogued biological data that it is challenging to take surveys and estimates about extinction risk and the Marine Strategy Framework Directive and the EU's claim it will protect 30 percent of land and sea by 2030 seriously.
A new paper revealed government's don't even know what they are not protecting already. The work revealed 40 years of gathered but never published data on marine amphipods - crustaceans - just in Italy. One type of crustacean in one country isn't even understood yet.

Cyclone Cycles Increase Global Warming
A new computer estimate says that the ocean is an important carbon sink that absorbs 40 to 60 percent of China's anthropogenic CO2 emissions but tropical cyclones prevent the oceans from absorbing more.
Understanding the impact of the ocean on sequestering carbon is important, because China builds two new coal plants each week and emits more pollution than the rest of the top 10 countries combined. Until they stop exempting themselves from pollution treaties it is important to understand what natural effects can help, since developed western countries have already sent their emissions per capita back 100 years and can't realistically get lower.
