... trifluoroacetic acid in nature. Sample analyses have indicated a multiple-fold rise in TFA concentration: for example, in the foliage of trees in Germany, the level increased 5–10 times since the early 1980s, with similar increases observed in Arctic ice in Canada and groundwater in Denmark. These data suggest that emissions of TFA and its precursors over recent decades have led to a global accumulation of this "forever" acid, which now falls with atmospheric precipitation. This is not the classic ...

... geomagnetic currents induced by the flare can overload transformers and power transmission lines, triggering power outages. Historical examples underscore the magnitude of the risks: during the infamous magnetic storm of 1989, a major part of Quebec (Canada) lost power for several hours. Experts also recall more recent events: the flares in 2003 caused disruptions in satellite and radio communications worldwide. Overall, any "Solar Flare" at the X1.2 level or higher presents a direct threat ...

... 17 million tons, while in 2024, this figure rose to 28 million tons. Besides Australia, Chile, and China, significant increases in reserves were seen in Argentina (from 1.7 million to 3.6 million tons), the USA (from 630,000 to 1.1 million tons), and Canada (from 370,000 to 930,000 tons). These figures refer to economically extractable lithium reserves, while the geological estimate of reserves grew from 80 million to 105 million tons between 2020 and 2024, including reserves in Bolivia, which were ...

... reacts to reduced Russian exports. This price pressure could lead European countries to reconsider their long-term energy strategies, possibly accelerating efforts to establish domestic uranium processing or boosting trade agreements with countries like Canada and Australia that are prominent uranium producers. Further, Europe may find itself balancing its energy transition goals with new challenges in the nuclear sector. As uranium costs potentially rise, the affordability of nuclear energy—a cornerstone ...
