385-Million-Year-Old Forest, World’s Oldest, Discovered In US
NDTV – India | January 13, 2024| Anjali Thakur

The ancient forest displayed traces of early plants, with some believed to have existed during the time of dinosaurs.

The region’s cartography commenced half a decade ago, dating back to 2019.

Half a decade?

Researchers have discovered the planet’s most ancient forest within a deserted quarry near Cairo, New York. Embedded in rocks dating back 385 million years, these fossils preserve the petrified roots of numerous ancient trees. This discovery signifies a pivotal moment in Earth’s timeline. As trees developed these roots, they played a crucial role in extracting carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere, sequestering it and triggering a significant transformation in the planet’s climate, ultimately shaping the atmosphere we experience today.

BBC reported that the team already knew the ancient forest existed,

. . . more than half a decade ago?

but this was the first time it was properly investigated to find out the ages of plants and trees growing there.

The ancient forest displayed traces of early plants, with some believed to have existed during the time of dinosaurs.

Researchers from the University of Binghamton in the US and the University of Cardiff in Wales estimate that the forest once covered an expansive area of approximately 400 kilometres, equivalent to around 250 miles.

The region’s cartography commenced half a decade ago, dating back to 2019.

Through the examination of fossils from diverse plants and trees within the area, researchers unveiled it as the Earth’s oldest known forest. Notable ancient forests include the Amazon rainforest and Japan’s Yakushima Forest.

Their discovery involves the study of palaeobotany. Paleo means old, or ancient, and botany is the study of plants – so it means studying ancient plants.

Thanks.

“You are walking through the roots of ancient trees,” Dr Christopher Berry, Paleobotanist, Cardiff University.

In contrast to the majority of contemporary trees, the ancient trees present in this forest did not propagate through the release of seeds that develop into new trees.

Several fossilized trees discovered in this forest relied on spores for reproduction. The term “spores” might sound familiar if you’ve studied fungi, as they similarly disperse and proliferate by releasing spores into the air.

Thanks again.

Not The Bee | Jan 13, 2024

Poor, poor woke Disney is having to make more major cuts.

Pixar, the animation studio that brought you classics like the Toy Story movies and The Incredibles, and now makes movies no one wants to see like Elemental, Soul, and Turning Red, have decided they need to make some cutbacks.

Currently, Pixar employs 1,300 workers but that number is likely to be slashed to under 1,000 with the newest business decision.

Go woke, go broke!

EBay to pay $3 million after employees sent spiders and fetal pig to a couple critical of the company
Blaze | Jan. 13, 2024 | Collin Jones

EBay is set to pay $3 million to make right criminal charges brought about after several former employees sent cockroaches, spiders, and a fetal pig to a Massachusetts couple who wrote a critical newsletter about the company in 2019, according to NBC News.

The online retail and auction juggernaut was charged with two counts of stalking through interstate travel, two counts of stalking by electronic communications services, witness tampering, and obstruction of justice, according to a statement released by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts.

As a result, eBay has agreed to pay the penalty, which is the maximum amount that can be fined for the six felonies. Reports mentioned that the company will have to retain an independent corporate compliance monitor for three years and make substantial changes to its compliance program.

“eBay engaged in absolutely horrific, criminal conduct. The company’s employees and contractors involved in this campaign put the victims through pure hell, in a petrifying campaign aimed at silencing their reporting and protecting the eBay brand,” Acting United States Attorney Joshua S. Levy said.

“We left no stone unturned in our mission to hold accountable every individual who turned the victims’ world upside-down through a never-ending nightmare of menacing and criminal acts. The investigation led to felony convictions for seven individuals, all former eBay employees or contractors, and the ringleader was sentenced to 57 months in federal prison.”

May Possibly Be Above MoonNukers’ Pay Grade

Oscar Mayer is looking for Wienermobile drivers. Here’s how to apply
Phoenix New Times | January 9, 2024 | Jennifer Goldberg

Oscar Mayer announced Monday that they are looking for their next round of Hotdoggers — aka the people who drive the famous Wienermobile.

Traveling an average of 20,000 miles each year, Hotdoggers visit at least 40 cities across the country and attend more than 1,200 events. Each Hotdogger is entrusted with driving and maintaining the 27-foot hot dog on wheels, along with creating social content for the brand’s channels during their “meat” and greets (not our joke) across the country.
