Dwarf mongooses anticipate encounters with rival groups and adjust how they move, communicate and defend resources beforehand, according to new research from the University of Bristol. The study, published in Nature Ecology & Evolution, shows that mongoose groups alter their behavior in areas where fights with rivals are most likely, even in the absence of another group. The biggest changes occur when the anticipated threat is greatest.

The EU must reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by 90% by 2040 relative to 1990—of which 5 percentage points can be achieved through climate action elsewhere, according to the 2025 law. A study by the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) now proposes a novel instrument for this external component: performance-based Jurisdictional Reward Funds. This avoids perverse incentives, strengthens international and thus also European climate action, and costs just 5 billion euros annually.
