Six Healthy Lifestyle Habits Linked to Slowed Memory Decline
Adhering to six healthy lifestyle behaviors is linked to slower memory decline in older adults, a large, population-based study suggests.

Climate change threatens to undo that progress.
Across the planet, animals — and the diseases they carry — are shifting to accommodate a globe on the fritz. And they’re not alone: Ticks, mosquitoes, bacteria, algae, even fungi are on the move, shifting or expanding their historical ranges to adapt to climatic conditions that are evolving at an unprecedented pace.
These changes are not happening in a vacuum. Deforestation, mining, agriculture, and urban sprawl are taking bites out of the…
