Changes in stratospheric circulation and temperature, which are driven by climate change, are decreasing the lifetime of nitrous oxide (N2O), which provides negative feedback to atmospheric warming, but adds uncertainty to climate predictions.

Global warming is speeding breakdown of major greenhouse gas, research shows

Scientists at the University of California, Irvine have discovered that climate change is causing nitrous oxide, a potent greenhouse gas and ozone-depleting substance, to break down in the atmosphere more quickly than previously thought, introducing significant uncertainty into climate projections for the rest of the 21st century.

Ketamine has been administered to billions of humans and animals since 1962, and is a fully #psychedelic medicine in most clinics worldwide. https://www.newscientist.com/definition/ibogaine/
A dream-like psychedelic might help traumatized veterans reset their brains

Scientists have linked the subjective intensity of ibogaine trips to tangible recovery in veterans. Those who felt a sense of unity and sacredness showed larger drops in trauma symptoms and slower brain wave frequencies one month later.

Testing Laughing Gas For Rocket Propellant

Nitrous oxide’s high-speed abilities don’t end with racing cars, as it’s a powerful enough oxidizer to be a practical component of rocket propellant. Since [Markus Bindhammer] is building a h…
