Traditional cooling systems for buildings use refrigerants and electricity, which contribute to the atmospheric greenhouse ...

Researchers at the Harvard Medical School and the Arthur Marcus Institute for Aging Research have discovered that your room’s temperature is secretly affecting the way your brain functions.

Scientists at the University of Twente have developed a way to create highly ordered semiconductor material at room temperature. This UT research was published today in Nature Synthesis.

A study by Hebrew SeniorLife Hinda and Arthur Marcus Institute for Aging Research reveals the optimal room temperature for cognitive function in older adults is 68–75˚F (20–24˚C).

He looked around the room. “I’m struggling right now to find anything that is of a natural material. In fact, the only thing I can find is my notebook,” he said. Plastic, he added ...

She speaks English and a little French. Our brains work best when our homes are at a specific temperature; too hot or too cold and we are more likely to experience cognitive difficulties ...

Saudi Arabia: 1. The European Union and its allies: 0. As the dust settles on last month’s failed United Nations negotiations to end plastic pollution, high-ambition countries in Europe and elsewhere ...

Key Laboratory of Materials Physics, Institute of Solid State Physics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), Chinese Academy of Sciences, Hefei, Anhui 230031, China ...

"Our findings underscore the importance of understanding how environmental factors, like indoor temperature, impact cognitive health in aging populations," said Amir Baniassadi, Ph.D., lead author ...

He emphasizes that proper waste management is essential for reducing these risks. The use of plastic in Europe has skyrocketed over the past decade. Recent statistics reveal that in 2021 ...

What they discovered was a clear U-shaped relationship between room temperature and cognitive function. In other words, attention spans were optimal within a specific temperature range and declined ...
