Should they have a say in their own future, or is it too soon to give them that freedom? There could be other agendas afoot… Our next story explores the latest in plastic cleanup, using river filtration with bubble barriers to collect the plastics. Simple yet effective, this process collects the plastic before it reaches the sea and the gnarly gyres.. Next is a potential breakthrough on detecting Dark Matter for the first time, with underground Lux Zeppelin Detector. We then examine how quantum computing might bridge the gap between digital intelligence and the spirit world or human neurological structures like microtubules. We have a closer look at the health differences between wild and farmed salmon , especially the fish found at Costco and Trader Joes. And our final story this week is about a new study exploring connections between genetic markers and personality traits.
