Science news centers on how environmental and technological forces are colliding with public systems and protected spaces. The strongest developments focus on climate risk to global health and a court ruling that clears the way for further expansion by SpaceX on sensitive refuge land in Texas.
The United Nations warns that a coming super El Niño could become the strongest on record and create major global health risks. Officials say climate shocks linked to the weather pattern can worsen disease outbreaks, disrupt food and water supplies, and put added pressure on already strained health systems in vulnerable countries.
A federal judge declines to temporarily block a Texas land swap that would transfer more than 700 acres of wildlife refuge land to SpaceX while a lawsuit moves forward. The ruling allows the Trump administration to continue the exchange for now, despite objections from plaintiffs challenging the impact on protected habitat.
