Tuesday, April 22nd marks Earth Day 2025, and while we aren’t limiting our pledge to live a little greener to a single day, it’s a great opportunity to teach our kids about sustainability and the ...

Researchers have made a new discovery that changes our understanding of Earth's early geological history, challenging beliefs about how our continents formed and when plate tectonics began. A study ...

Stable parts of the Earth's crust may not be as immovable as previously thought. While much of the crust is affected by plate tectonic activity, certain more stable portions have remained unchanged ...

Modern continental rocks carry chemical signatures from the very start of our planet's history, challenging current theories about plate tectonics. Researchers have made a new discovery that changes ...

Recent scientific investigations have revealed that a significant portion of Earth’s crust has disappeared over millions of years, primarily due to extensive erosion. This discovery has shed light on ...

The Earth’s crust is disappearing right beneath our feet – and most people don’t even realise it. Now, if you’re a geologist, or got a keen interest in how the Earth is put together, then this ...

Water covers nearly three-quarters of Earth's surface. But how much water lies hidden underground in the planet's crust? A 2021 study in the journal Geophysical Research Letters found that more of ...

Continental clues: Modern continental rocks carry chemical signatures from the very start of our planet’s history, challenging current theories about plate tectonics. Researchers have made a new ...

Earth is the only known planet which has plate tectonics today. The constant movement of these giant slabs of rock over the planet’s magma creates continents – and may have even helped create life. In ...
