Watch "How Differential Gear Works | QUOTED" on YouTube
This is one of the most well articulated description of differentials that I’ve ever seen.
It’s well worth a few minutes of your time.

Climate scientist finds large errors in a global climate pollution database
The finding of large gaps in the climate data are maybe not so surprising. They do note that the way data is collected and the use of automation does affect the data that’s reported.
And of course there is observer bias. But they note:
“We will never estimate emissions with perfect accuracy, but we must ensure that the data shared with policymakers and the public is unbiased and meets best practices and the most rigorous scientific standards available. Without this, we mislead decision makers and potentially lose public trust in our ability to tackle climate change.”
And yes. That should be the fundamental basis for all scientific endeavor.
Beavers Turn Rivers Into Powerful Carbon Sinks, Study Finds
Let’s give it up for the beavers!
They turn out to be more important in a changing climate than anyone ever assumed.
A Chemical Breakthrough That Could Fix the Plastic Crisis
Denovia, a company based in Canada, has come up with a compound that more efficiently breaks down plastics and lower temperatures, meaning that plastic waste can be recycled at scale.
There’s more to be done, but it’s a step in a better direction.
Scientists build near-invisible solar cells thinner than human hair
Here’s another step forward in the development of solar cells. Thin, transparent cells that can cover a surface and still be clear enough to see through is an intriguing use case.
