A decades-long effort to remove dangerous plastic debris from marine and terrestrial habitats succeeded in lowering endangered Hawaiian monk seal entanglement rates, a 2024 Science study found, confirming that such efforts are well worth the cost and effort.

A powerful El Niño may be brewing for 2026: one of the strongest in recorded history. Scientists are raising the alarm that one of the planet’s most disruptive climate patterns could return with force next year. Multiple climate models now suggest a major El Niño event is likely to develop in 2026, with some projections indicating it could rival or even surpass the devastating 1877 event — widely regarded as one of the most extreme on record. El Niño occurs when a large area of unusually warm water builds up across the equatorial Pacific. This excess heat alters global atmospheric circulation, triggering widespread shifts in weather patterns far beyond the ocean itself. The impacts of a strong El Niño are often severe and far-reaching. Past events have caused simultaneous crop failures, intense heat waves, prolonged droughts, catastrophic flooding, coral bleaching, and fishery collapses across several continents. The 1877 super El Niño, for example, contributed to massive famines and an estimated tens of millions of deaths in regions including India, China, Brazil, and parts of Africa. What makes a potential 2026 event particularly concerning is that it would unfold on an already warming planet. Global ocean temperatures have been running unusually high for an extended period, and many areas are already facing water stress, extreme heat, and climate-related crises. Adding a powerful El Niño on top of this background warming could push systems to the breaking point. While El Niño affects different regions in different ways, bringing heavy rains and floods to some areas and severe drought and heat to others, its global footprint tends to strain food production, water resources, energy systems, and public health simultaneously. Forecasters emphasize that predictions can still change, and the final strength of the event remains uncertain. However, growing agreement across climate models has increased confidence that a significant El Niño is forming.

Congrats to the Black Rhino on today's World Endangered Species Day: Africa's most significant endangered animal recovery success story. In the 1990s, the population was fewer than 2,500. Intense conservation (enforcement of anti-poaching laws, reintroduction to new areas) has nearly tripled numbers to 6,400. Without conservation in 2026 there would be an estimated 300 Black Rhino alive, on brink of extinction.

Eskom Expo for Young Scientists
Learners and educators in Knysna came together on 16 April for an interactive Eskom Expo workshop focused on preparing participants for the upcoming District Expos. The session guided attendees through the essentials of developing a successful research project, including refining ideas, completing research plans, understanding Expo categories and improving presentation and investigation skills. Learners were encouraged to explore meaningful scientific questions and turn their ideas into innovative research projects. These workshops continue to empower young scientists with the knowledge, confidence and practical tools needed to take the next step in their Eskom Expo journey.
