A geology insider explains why the global energy crisis is going to get much, much worse

February 03, 2022 - geology are against us on this one, even if we could develop some technology. Wind & solar won’t save us either, it would require a larger investment of materials and energy than we have.

There is no way we are getting out of this.

What this means is that you are going to be paying much more to heat your homes.

And it means that you are also going to be paying much more to fill up your vehicle at the gas station.

Needless to say, you will be paying ...

Underwater geology: Scientists have discovered that ocean currents create avalanches, rivers and other seafloor infrastructure changes

December 03, 2017 -

Turbidity currents, or deep-water sediment avalanches, are powerful flows that damages and breaks important seafloor infrastructure responsible for supporting global digital communications. Until the study was conducted, it has always been unclear how large these flows are and how often they happen. These turbidity currents occur 2,000 meters below sea level and moves large volumes of sediment and organic carbon over week-long periods. This process contributes to supporting ...

Brooks Range in Alaska was TRANSPORTED from Greenland: Findings could rewrite the region’s history, posit researchers

March 03, 2020 - geology to prove that large swaths of land are within their domain.

“If countries are going to make legal claims based on geology or geophysics, they should consider these much older boundaries that we are highlighting,” stated Justin Strauss, lead researcher of the study. “Governments will need to confront the complexities of geology meeting politics.”

Another implication has to do with the nature of the Arctic itself. Aside from the number ...

Geologist Ian Plimer: Earth has undergone dramatic climate shifts long before humans existed

February 07, 2025 -

In a world increasingly defined by urgent calls to address climate change, geologist Ian Plimer's book "Heaven and Earth: Global Warming – the Missing Science" has reignited debates about humanity's role in shaping the planet's climate.

Published in 2009, the book argues that climate change is a natural, cyclical phenomenon driven by geological and solar forces, rather than primarily by human-produced carbon dioxide emissions.

A strategic strike in the desert: Utah mineral find ignites new front in U.S.-China tech war

December 16, 2025 - geology. Independent assays confirm the deposit is a halloysite-hosted ion-adsorption clay (IAC) system—the same type of formation that supplies over a third of China’s total rare earth production and more than 70% of the world’s heavy rare earth elements. Ionic MT describes its find as an "IAC-Plus" profile, noting magmatically enriched grades of not only rare earths but also a suite of other critical technology metals. These include gallium and germanium (subject to ...

Ancient hydrogen and magma ocean offer clues about Earth’s origins

April 21, 2025 - geology from within. These dual discoveries have profound implications for planetary science, geology and the search for life beyond Earth.Magma ocean remnants shape Earth’s internal dynamics

Charles-Édouard Boukaré, a planetary physicist at York University, and colleagues have unveiled new evidence of an ancient ocean of magma lurking beneath your feet. Published in Nature on March 26, their model demonstrates that Earth’s mantle, the thick layer between ...

An asteroid’s ripple: How a cosmic strike reshaped the Grand Canyon

July 21, 2025 - geology: Challenging assumptions

The findings upend the notion that the Grand Canyon’s formation is primarily a slow, incremental process. “This shows rapid, episodic events—like impacts or landslides—can create dramatic shortfalls in geological timescales,” Karlstrom said. The study also underscores why scientists must reassess assumptions about seemingly unrelated events. Previously, the Meteor Crater impact and Grand Canyon landmarks like the Nankoweap Delta were studied ...

Study challenges California’s green energy agenda, citing natural oil seeps as climate culprits

August 14, 2025 - geology itself is a fossil fuel powerhouse.Geological insights and environmental irony

California’s unique tectonic activity fuels its hydrocarbon-rich basins. The Los Angeles Basin alone, now home to 3 million residents, once supplied vast oil fields. Early explorers like “smellers” tracked seeps to find strikes. Today, those same seeps contribute to pollution, particularly in low-income communities near dormant wells.

Yet, Rector argues, plugging idle wells—a ...

Researchers baffled by mysterious melting of Earth’s crust beneath western North America

May 02, 2021 - geology and geophysics at the University of Wyoming (UW), who led the study, explained that long belts of igneous rocks are commonly associated with subduction zones, which are regions between two tectonic plates moving toward each other.

Moreover, molten rock originates from deep within the Earth, typically near active plate boundaries or hot spots, then rises toward the surface where it cools and turns into igneous rocks.

"What makes this so interesting and ...

Overlooked strand of the San Andreas Fault may be primed for a major earthquake, study determines

March 28, 2021 -

Called the Mission Creek strand, the segment spans the cities of Indio, Desert Hot Springs and San Bernardino. It has gone mostly unnoticed because it is thought to be one of the least active sections of the southern San Andreas Fault. But the new study indicates that the strand is actually the fastest moving fault in the region.

"This particular strand of the San Andreas failure has been interpreted to be not very active," said Kimberly Blisniuk, an associate professor ...

Africa’s great divide: Tectonic forces are slowly tearing the continent apart

November 24, 2025 - geology. Similar rifting events have shaped the planet's continents over billions of years, including the breakup of the supercontinent Pangea 130 million years ago, which created today's oceans.

BrightU.AI's Enoch explains that Pangea was the last supercontinent on Earth, existing approximately 250 to 175 million years ago during the late Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras. The supercontinent began to break apart around 175 million years ago, leading to the formation ...

Scientists discover GOLD nanoparticles in SPRUCE TREES, which is naturally assimilated by symbiotic bacteria

October 11, 2025 -

A study published in Environmental Microbiome reveals that certain spruce trees near Finland’s Kittilä gold mine contain tiny gold particles, formed with the help of symbiotic bacteria living inside their needles. These microbes, known as endophytes, play a crucial role in transforming soluble gold from the soil into solid nanoparticles—a process that could revolutionize how we search for precious metals while shedding light on the hidden connections between biology and geology....

Joseph Farrell’s “The Cosmic War”: Did an interplanetary conflict reshape the solar system?

March 31, 2025 - geology, mythology and physics—demands a closer look. If nothing else, his theory challenges conventional narratives about humanity's past.

As space exploration advances, new data from Mars and distant moons like Iapetus may provide answers. Until then, the Cosmic War hypothesis remains a tantalizing—if unproven—reminder that history, both human and planetary, may be far stranger than people imagine.
