For approximately 3,000 years, generations of green sea turtles have returned to the same seagrass meadows to eat. This was discovered by Willemien de Kock, a historical ecologist at the University of Groningen, by combining modern data with archaeological findings. Sea turtles migrate between specific breeding places and eating places throughout their lives–this much was known. But the fact that this stretches over many generations highlights the importance of protecting seagrass meadows along the coasts of North Africa.

First published MAY 14, 2023 Updated 5 hours ago Government Republicanism was seen as a move against Queen Elizabeth II during her reign rather than a move towards nationhood. Now the Commonwealth is at a crossroads Opinion: With the death of Queen Elizabeth II, the glue that bound 56 disparate nations is gone. The future for the British Commonwealth is less certain under King Charles III. The Commonwealth faces two main questions: the constitutional future of the Commonwealth realms, and the future of the Commonwealth itself.

(May 24): Talks over forming Thailand's next government are well into their second week and there's still no sign that a pro-democracy coalition led by Move Forward will garner the support it needs to ensure that Pita Limjaroenrat becomes the nation's 30th prime minister. Despite downplaying some controversial campaign promises and cobbling together an alliance of eight parties that commands a majority in the House of Representatives, Pita's coalition still doesn't have the 376 parliamentary seats needed to bypass a 250-member, military-appointed Senate that also gets to vote on the next premier.
