At COP29 in Baku, rich and poor nations have gathered to fund mitigating climate change to keep it from running rampant.

COP29 held in a petrostate this year ended up with less than the desired outcome if you were seeking progress on the climate change file. In 2025, COP30 will take place in the Brazilian rainforest with participants directly experiencing how climate change is having an impact on the lungs of the planet.

Meanwhile, misinformation spreaders say fluoridation causes cancer, endangers pregnant women, and produces neurological disorders in children lowering their IQs.
Combining AI and gene editing allows us to design proteins to help reduce greenhouse gasses, digest plastic, replace agricultural pesticides, improve human health, conquer diseases, develop lightning-fast responses to incipient pandemics, and develop lifelong personalized medical treatments. Â Â
Applying virtual twin simulations is the next stage in the evolution of personalized medical treatment where your body will have a digital twin for doctors to monitor your health and catch changes that could become life threatening.
Red blood cells aren't like other cells in our bodies. They don't have a nucleus. Blood types are a result of distinct antigens absent or found on the surfaces of red blood cells. Blood screening for matching now involves screening for 47 different blood groups.
