Paul O'Shea and Sebastian Maslow (University of Tokyo) have published an article in the Conversation on the end of Japanese pacifism. The article examines Japan's new role in an increasingly precarious region. The invasion of Ukraine and China's designs on Taiwan have prompted Japan to abandon its low-profile, economy-first approach, seeking instead to shape regional and even global geopolitics. W

Increasing attention is being paid to the impact of honey bees on wild bees. In a new report from Lund University in Sweden, researchers observed that honey bees compete with wild bees for flower resources, and that more research and knowledge are needed to create the conditions for coexistence between bee-keeping and the conservation of wild bees in Sweden over the long term. In recent years, the

Air pollution does not only harm human health. New research shows that birds also experience measurable biological changes after breathing in soot particles from traffic emissions. While the effects of polluted air are well documented in humans, far less is known about how animals with different physiologies respond.
