This fish species survived 100,000 years without males. Scientists thought it should be long dead – but it's thriving

All-female species have been long thought of as evolutionary dead ends – but one fish has defied the odds to live without males, revealing new clues to how genomes stay healthy.

Women’s scoop neck Rewild and give nature a chance T-shirt

A T-shirt from our Scientist and Philosopher range. Nature is under attack as the human population shows little sign of stabilising. During the last two centuries or so since the start of what humanity calls progress of the industrial revolution we have grown from 1 billion in 1800 humans to 7.79 billion in 2020. We have hacked away at forests and ecosystems with no thought to sustainability or the future of ourselves or other species and ecosystems. Controversially, this time is called the Anthropocene, the sixth great extinction in this planet’s long history. We need to learn to live within the bounds of the finite planet and that means moving humans out of places and turning them back into wilderness. Why? Because we are too many and we have taken too much.

Check out how these products are made using organic cotton. We need to live in not just a sustainable way but one that causes the least environmental loading on the planet. You can even send these items back to be made into new things when you have finished with them. (S&P)
