Scientists in Svalbard in race to study polar microbes as global warming threatens fragile glacial ecosystems“It felt really scary like being in the middle of a burning city during a night raid.” Dr Arwyn Edwards is not describing urban warfare, but a recent hot and foggy day on a Svalbard glacier, where record-breaking summer heat turned his workplace into a cascade of meltwater and falling rocks.Edwards is a leading researcher in glacier ecology – the study of life forms that live on, within and around glaciers and ice sheets. Over two decades of polar research, he has always felt “relaxed and at home” on ice. But accelerating climate change is beginning to erode that sense of security. Continue reading...

Holidaying with teenagers can be tricky, but our tipsters have discovered glorious destinations and exhilarating activities to keep them entertained • Tell us about a remote part of Europe – the best tip wins a £200 holiday voucherSlovenia!

If you have the money, there is rafting and canyoning too. After seeing the incredible Postojna cave, we went up the Vogel cable by Lake Bohinj.

This classic churn-free Italian dessert is easier to make than ice-cream, and can be customised by the seasonSofter and lighter than ice-cream, semifreddo, which is Italian for “half-cold” or “half-frozen”, is also easier to make because it doesn’t need churning. Customise this one by swapping the almonds for pistachios, and serving it with cherries or other seasonal fruit. Do seek out the anise seeds, though, because they add such a lovely pop of flavour. The praline can be made up to a week ahead and stored in an airtight container in the freezer, while the semifreddo itself will keep happily in the freezer for about a week. Continue reading...

12 h. ago Loneliness is rife among young men. It’s time to get offline and talk to each other | Alexander Hurst

It’s tempting to scoff, but don’t dismiss the data. Modern man’s failure to forge real, meaningful friendships is bad for everyoneAt first I was startled when the psychologist Angelica Ferrara told me that most of the time it’s women, not men, who want to write about her research into male loneliness. But this is the crux of the issue, isn’t it? That we men need to talk, and we don’t: not nearly enough, anyway.Since 1990, there has been a sharp decline in how many people men say they are close to, says Ferrara, who is a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford and a visiting fellow at the London School of Economics. In the US, two-thirds of men aged between 18 and 23 think that nobody really knows them; one third haven’t seen anyone outside their household in the past week; only a fifth say they have friends they can really count on; and a staggering 69% of young men think “no one cares if men are OK”.Alexander Hurst is a Guardian Europe columnist Continue reading...
