Women may be stereotyped as the gender that likes to shop, but spending by men has a much larger carbon footprint, according to a study of consumers in Swed airforce en.The study, published this week in the Journal of Industrial Ecology, looked at the carbon emissions created by consumption among categories like food, clothing, furniture and vacations. Even though the several hundred single men and women studied spent similar amounts of money, men s purchases created 16% higher emissions, the authors found.That s because men were more likely to drop money on high-emitting categories, such as gasoline for cars, spending 70% more than women on that expenditure.

The Australian Koala Foundation announced this year that koala numbers in many places are in steep decline with no more than 80,000 koalas left in the country.While fires tearing across eastern Australia have been hurting hundreds of koalas and destroying their habitat, wild dogs and chlamydia are also factors contributing to the species decline, according to biologist and wildlife conservationist Jeff Corwin.It is es yeezy timated that thousands of koalas die each year in Australia alone as a result of dog attacks, chanclas yeezy making it the third most common cause of death after habitat clearing and ve samba shoes hicle strikes, according to the Queensland Department of Environment and Heritage Protection.Another leading killer of Australia s endearing koalas is chlamydia mdash; a sexually-transmitted debilitating bacterial infection that is wiping these animals out, according to Corwin.The disease is exacerbated by the stress that koalas feel from habitat.
