I need science content

Belly up the blog, comrade unbelievers, I need science content to consider for the Saturday Science round up on Daily Kos tomorrow. I’ll consider anything linked in comments, especially stuff that’s well researched and written with a political angle.

    George Kenney’s ‘Electric Politics’ podcast this week:

    Dr. Bärbel Hönisch and her co-authors of the paper “The Geological Record of Ocean Acidification,” Science (2 March, 2012), show that the rate of change of ocean acidification is greater today, by at least an order of magnitude, than it has ever been during any period over the past 300,000,000 years. Rate of change, not absolute pH level, being what matters.
