It is the science that today you know the world, different places, different discoveries, etc. and one of them is the colour science. This colour science explains about the colour. Suppose something looks yellow, then what is the reason behind? It seems so simple today but was a mystery some decades ago. Similarly, there is a science behind the sky and its colour.

Plastic Oceans: We need to do better
The growth of plastic production is seriously damaging our planet. Over the past sixty years, plastic production has skyrocketed by a massive 1220%, and it's estimated that more than 100 million tons are dumped into our ocean each year. It is now projected that there will be one ton of plastic for every three tons of fish in the world by 2050. The detrimental impact on marine life and sea animals has been extensively documented, as well as its adverse effects on human health.

The Biker With A Big Heart
It took several drafts to get the letters right. To dis-till her boy’s life into the two dimensionality of words on paper. To paint a picture of someone full of energy and love, so that the beneficiaries of his death—the recipients of his organs— would know just how lucky they were.

Honey Trap: The Rise of Honey Laundering and Bees Malware in the UK
But that buzz is quieting down, which means one thing: the bees’ population is decreasing. A recent study shows that a third of British wild bees and hoverflies have been declining in terms of areas they were found in since 1980.

Thank you for the love
Since day one you filled my sight with beauty: trees, flowers, smiles, eyes overflowing with love as they looked into mine. You made the most harmonious sounds continuously pass my ears: singing birds, running wind, breaking waves. You had me feel all the wonders that surround me: grainy sand, sharp rocks, hot sunshine on my face. You allowed me to discover a rainbow of flavours from the sweetness of honey to a bitter coffee. You put your favorite perfumes in my nose: flowers at the beginning of spring, humid dirt after a rainy night, salty ocean air.
