Earthquakes preceded the opening of new vents on the volcano’s southern flank, and enormous lava flows began advancing toward villages, farmland, and the city of Catania.Over four months, the eruption buried several settlements, destroyed vineyards, roads, churches, and homes, and displaced thousands of people. The lava eventually reached Catania and then entered the Mediterranean, creating new

After the rains, a mountain stream giggles once again. You pause beside it, marvelling that so tiny a flow should, over the years, have carved a deep cleft in the hillside that is home to gorse, rowans and stunted oaks. A raven circles overhead, its croak almost as old as the hills.BBC Countryfile Magazine's Plodcast Sound Escapes are a weekly audio postcard from the countryside to help you relax and transport you somewhere beautiful, wherever you happen to be.

The sky should not have been orange. Glen Smith is a small boy in 1982, awake while his father works nights, when he pulls himself onto the kitchen counter and sees the whole farm lit up through the window like he is looking through a tinted lens. His dad stands beside him, transfixed, and says it gets that way sometimes when it storms. It does not. What happens over the next few hours stays locked in Glen's mind for three decades, surfacing only when an inverted photo negative drops the first clue

Send us Fan Mail What happens when you deliberately try to get rejected 1,000 times? Six months ago, I started the 1,000 Rejection Challenge to stop letting fear of rejection make decisions for me. I committed to making 10 asks every week—submitting my art and writing, pitching ideas, entering competitions, applying for opportunities, and deliberately risking hearing “no.” Now I've made 212 asks and officially received my 100th rejection. But instead of pushing harder, I'm doing something ...

What happens when you give someone a way of looking, without telling them what to find? Pia takes one small part of her octopus-inspired innovation method out of the office and sends it on holiday to Zimbabwe with her friend Jane. The experiment starts at Eastgate Centre in Harare, the termite-inspired building from the previous episode. Jane gets one loose lens: How does this place feel? What can you hear? What do you notice? What surprises you? Then Pia gets out of the way. What begins as a...

This week on World Ocean Radio, host Peter Neill is discussing solar energy, in his opinion, a pure opportunity at every level of scale and application. He shares examples of floating solar projects around the world--arrays placed on the surface of reservoirs, abandoned sandpits, and other passive bodies of water--that are providing substantial contributions and annual outputs in places like India, China, the Netherlands, and Africa.  WORLD OCEAN RADIO World Ocean Radio is a weekly series

Sin embargo, la eliminación de 1,000 millones de aves desató una plaga de langostas y una hambruna que mató a millones. Esta es la historia real detrás de la Campaña de las Cuatro Plagas y el error ecológico que cambió China para siempre.¿Quieres tener nuestro libro físico?

In 1931, catastrophic flooding affected large parts of China, including the northeastern river systems connected to the Heilongjiang, or Amur, River. Although the Yangtze and Huai floods became far better known, communities across the northeast also endured rising rivers, submerged farmland, damaged transport routes, and widespread displacement. Historical records for the Black Dragon River region are incomplete, so the exact death toll cannot be stated with confidence. What is clear is that homes,
