I'm guessing this is a "leopards ate my face" situation for a lot of people.

Does anyone know where I can find it?

Levels of ambient air pollution according to mode of transport: a systematic review in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

Interpretation
Proximity to traffic and high air interchange increased the exposure to air pollution of commuters using motorised transport. Larger inhalation rates and commuting time increased inhaled dose among active commuters. Benefits of active commuting from physical activity are larger than the risk from an increased inhaled dose of fine particles.

I've often wondered about the net effect. Interesting.

FAA Adopts Carbon Limits For Airliners (www.avweb.com)
 

The FAA has issued a final rule that will require most larger aircraft built after Jan. 1, 2028, to meet new efficiency standards designed to reduce their carbon emissions per passenger mile. The new rule will cover all subsonic jets with a maximum takeoff weight of more than 12,500 pounds and turboprops with an MTOW of 19,000 pounds.

What's some common knowledge that you just found out recently? in c/asklemmy
[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

Maybe this more of a misheard lyrics thing, but for a long time I thought "noxious gas" had to do with nitrogen oxides (NOx), and then spread to other metaphorical applications like "noxious weeds" and so on.

L.A. Metro Shifts Funds for Transit to Expand Highway Lanes (www.planetizen.com)
 

It should surprise no bros that Southern California still wants to add one more lane to fix traffic.

After the last expansion project, traffic on I-405 only got worse. Metro wants to try again.

Under the proposal, Metro will “add and shift Measure R (Metro 2008 countywide sales tax) Multimodal Highway Subregional Program funds to various projects, mostly freeway lanes/ramps expansion and arterial streets/intersections expansion,

Searching for Signs of Intelligent Life: Technosignatures (exoplanets.nasa.gov)
 

Signs of life beyond Earth could take forms that are clearly artificial – radio or light signals, or even evidence of large-scale engineering.

I know this is pretty basic for many of you, but I'm happy to see this from NASA.

Muometric navigation system - GPS alternative that penetrates underground, indoors, and underwater (www.nature.com)
 

While satellite-based global navigation systems have become essential tools in our daily lives, their effectiveness is often hampered by the fact that the signals cannot be accessed in underground, indoor, or underwater environments. Recently, a novel navigation system has been invented to address this issue by utilizing the characteristics of the ubiquitous and highly penetrative cosmic-ray muons.
