Antony Gormley: Humans are building 'a vast termites' nest' of greed  

Sculptor explains how new show, featuring 600 cast-iron human skyscrapers, expresses his anger about London's testosterone-fuelled corporate expansion

Antony Gormley says his first White Cube exhibition in four years, which opens in September, is driven by “more of a sense of urgency” than any other show he has done. From the warming of our climate and the acidification of our seas to cities dominated by skyscrapers “nothing more than expressions of virile corporate power,” says Gormley the artist's despair at society's failure to take action has filtered unavoidably into his latest work.

Bees' ability to forage decreases as air pollution increases  
Air pollutants interact with and break down plant-emitted scent molecules, which insect pollinators use to locate needed food, according to a team of researchers. The pollution-modified plant odors can confuse bees and, as a result, bees' foraging time increases and pollination efficiency decreases. This happens because the chemical interactions decrease both the scent molecules' life spans and the distances they travel.

The Science of Deciphering Ancient Papyrus Scrolls  

Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 A.D. and destroyed the Roman cities below it, but the hot ash from the volcano also created a time capsule of the cities Pompeii and Herculaneum. Until recently, the ancient scrolls in the library at Herculaneum were considered too charred and fragile to open. This short documentary by MEL Films, Would Say Would Fall, explores the incredible science behind two men's work—a papyrologist and physicist—to decipher the documents after nearly two thousand years. To see more films from MEL, visit their website and Vimeo page.
