Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), a potentially toxic “forever chemical”, has more than tripled in the global environment in two decades due to refrigerants that are helping to close the hole in the ozone ...

Chemicals brought in to help protect our ozone layer have had the unintended consequences of spreading vast quantities of a potentially toxic "forever chemical" around the globe, a new study shows.

The ozone layer is a stratospheric region characterized by elevated concentrations of ozone (O₃), typically peaking between 15 and 35 km altitude, where photochemical equilibrium between ozone ...

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said the role of layer-2 networks needs to be reconsidered as Ethereum’s main network continues to scale and transaction costs remain low. In a post on X, Buterin ...

Ethereum mainnet surpassed all layer-2 networks in daily active addresses in January, though security analysts attributed part of the spike to address poisoning attacks. Network activity on the ...
