"Rising Livestock Emissions Undermine World’s Climate Fight"

As long as who's on the table is not off the table, climate heating awaits. It sound like some type of karma thing, but it isn't, it's only physics. Sentience seems to require a nervous system, and a nervous system, which is a biological information (cybernetic) system, requires a lot of energy upfront. We can't eat sunlight, but the next best thing is plants.

Various features of #parasites and #hosts may influence the #likelihood of #evolutionary transitions of parasites between #freshwater and #marine environments and vice versa. These include: parasite location (endoparasitism > ectoparasitism); #life cycle #complexity (simple > complex); host #specificity (#generalist > #specialist); transmission mode (#trophic > #environmental) https://doi.org/10.1093/icb/icac050 #EvolutionaryBiology #Paleobiology #Paleontology
Happy to join Mastodon! I am an ecologist interested in how biotic interactions are altered by global change. I work at a research institute in the Swiss Alps, and I am looking forward to many exciting Mastodon interactions! #plant-herbivore interactions #BugNet #pathogens #trophic ecology #alpine ecology #rare species
