Influence of Region, Harvest Year, and Variety on Stable Isotope Characterization of Xinjiang Rice From China

open access: yesAgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Xinjiang rice isotopic differences were influenced by region, harvest year, variety, with southern rice had more positive δ13C, δ2H and δ18O values than northern. This study provides the first Xinjiang rice traceability data, aiding China's national rice database.

Retracted: Can the chemical industry solve the climate change?On the role of human energy production, renewable energies, and the potential of chemistry as a solution provider

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView., 2023
Let us consider an alternative perspective on climate change: The sum of solar radiation and heat generated by human activity result in a net energy input of 1.96 times that of the Sun on the Earth's surface. The expanding global population is expected to exacerbate this issue. Potential solutions are proposed, including replacement and heat recycling.
