Mexico Passes Climate Change Law
As Mexico’s Popocatepetl volcano continues to spew ash and greenhouse gases, the Mexican people themselves have resolved to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide.
A law recently passed by the Mexican legislature will reduce emissions of carbon dioxide by 30 percent below business-as-usual levels by 2020, and by 50 percent below 2000 levels by 2050, reported Nature. By 2024, Mexico will also derive 35 percent of its electricity from renewable resources, according to the new law.
In other news, we keep shuffling our feet hoping that everyone else will “do their part” and we can keep our “business-as-usual”. Kudos Mexico!

Iranian nuclear scientists’ deaths no mystery
A covert war between Iran and the West burst to the surface Wednesday on the fashionable streets of northern Tehran when two men on a motorcycle attached a magnetic bomb to the car of a 32-year-old nuclear scientist, killing him and his bodyguard.
University professor Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan was a chemistry expert who also worked as a director of the Natanz uranium enrichment plant, a key facility in Iran’s suspected nuclear arms program.
The assassination, the fourth of its kind in two years, appears to be part of an undeclared campaign to target top Iranian scientists to delay or degrade the nuclear program — something diplomacy and economic sanctions have been unable to do.

Proof of whale legs? Well, almost...
A 40 million year old whale fossil that almost became a countertop sheds some light on whether or not whales had legs….except the damn legs were missing. Ancient whale legs, anyone? -

Ohhh, nature. You so pretty.

Whale graveyard: Scientists have discovered more than 75 whale fossils in the middle of Chile’s Atacama Desert. The bones were found side-by-side on a strip of road “the length of two football fields,” suggesting that all of the whales died around the same time. But how they wound up in one of the driest deserts in the world has scientists scratching their heads.
