Feral brumby horses grazing in Kosciuszko National Park after population cuts in Australia’s Snowy Mountains

Australia did the unthinkable in Kosciuszko: in just 12 months, it reduced the number of wild horses from 17,000 to 3,000… and the park is already changing color (literally)

Workers in protective suits stand in a flooded facility, using tools to clean up standing water after a coastal flood or storm surge.

A national map identifies 5,500 “hot spots” along the US coastline, and the danger is not the water itself, but what the water can carry with it

Construction crews in hard hats stand inside a large, concrete lined tunnel, a visual of Europe’s hidden underground routes.

Switzerland has excavated a “second country” beneath the Alps: more than 1,400 tunnels and 2,000 km beneath the rock to change the climate… without almost anyone noticing when traveling.
