Liam Rosenior gives Estevao Willian and Enzo Fernandez injury updates in fresh Chelsea setback

Liam Rosenior has shared how Chelsea star Estevao Willian cried following an injury setback in the 1-0 defeat to Manchester United.
It is the latest setback for the Blues in their pursuit of a top-five finish and Champions League football next season.
While Enzo Fernandez, captaining the side yesterday after an internal two-game suspension, was also forced off with a worrying calf problem.
The injury for Estevao could put his appearance at this summer’s World Cup with Carlo Ancelotti’s Brazil a

Washington moves to cut China out of the machines powering US Bitcoin mining

The new Mined in America Act tries to reshore Bitcoin mining hardware, reduce China-linked supply risk, and fold the industry into America’s broader digital-asset strategy.
Gino Matos is a law school graduate and a seasoned journalist with six years of experience in the crypto industry. His expertise primarily focuses on the Brazilian blockchain ecosystem and developments in decentralized finance (DeFi).
America holds roughly 38% of global Bitcoin mining capacity, and the specialized hardware powering that positi

UCL: Liverpool without this player for Galatasaray clash
Liverpool FC will have to do without their first-choice goalkeeper Alisson Becker for the first leg of the UEFA Champions League round of 16 against Galatasaray SK.
The Brazilian shot-stopper picked up an injury during training and is not part of the squad traveling to Istanbul. The English club has not provided further details regarding the nature of his injury. To fill the void, the coach is expected to pl

An evolutionary development is raising alarms among scientists: Two of the world's most destructive crop pests have begun interbreeding — creating destructive hybrids that could threaten food supplies.
According to New Scientist, researchers discovered that two notorious agricultural pests — the cotton bollworm and the corn earworm — have successfully interbred in Brazil, exchanging genes that make them more resistant to pesticides in genetically modified crops.
Both insects are moth species whose caterpillars feed on crops. The corn earworm is native to the Americas and attacks corn, tomato

A plant used in Brazilian medicine has scientific potential to help people with arthritis and other inflammatory conditions. Researchers tested Joseph’s Coat (Alternanthera littoralis) in lab studies and found it reduced swelling, protected joint tissue, and appeared safe at the doses used.
Joseph’s Coat grows naturally along Brazil’s coast. Local communities have traditionally used it to ease inflammation, infections and parasites. Until now, however, there has not been solid scientific evidence showing it works or is safe.
The new study was carried out by teams from universities across Bra

Brazil’s culture ministry has given its blessing to an art project that aims to turn Bitcoin price volatility into impromptu musical masterpieces.
The ministry has approved the project’s plans to raise $195,000 from private sector firms and donors, Brazil’s Livecoins reported.
However, the campaign must wrap up funding by the end of the year.
If the project, spearheaded by the real estate and sports firm Rede Conexão Brasília, receives enough funding, it will culminate in a live orchestra “making Bitcoin music” during a performance in the city of Brasília.
“The performers are aiming to tra

A disturbing new video captures masked ICE agents in unmarked vehicles swarming the mother of Karoline Leavitt’s nephew before hauling her away. The video, first published by TMZ, shows 33-year-old Bruna Ferreira being taken into ICE custody on Nov. 12 in Revere, Massachusetts. Her attorney, Todd Pomerleau, verified the video in a statement to the Daily Beast. Ferreira, a Brazilian national, was in regular contact with Leavitt’s family while she co-parented her 11-year-old son, who is the press secretary’s nephew and godson, Pomerleau said.

When it comes to rare earth elements — critical for many industries — it’s all about China. And more and more companies are trying to break the stranglehold the country has over its supply.

SAO PAULO (Reuters) -Brazilian agricultural research agency Embrapa has received the greenlight from health agency Anvisa to research the cannabis plant, a landmark move that puts farming powerhouse Brazil a step closer towards authorizing its cultivation.
In an interview ‌on Friday, Embrapa researcher Daniela Bittencourt welcomed Anvisa's decision this week, which gives the agency unprecedented permission to build ‌its first-ever cannabis seed bank and develop projects to genetically improve the plant for various applications.
Embrapa will also research hemp used to produce fib

UN climate summit drops mention of fossil fuels from draft deal

All mention of fossil fuels, by far the largest contributor to climate change, has been dropped from the draft deal under negotiation at the COP30 UN climate talks in Belém, Brazil enter their final stretch.
Draft agreements at the meeting of nearly 200 countries usually go through multiple revisions as all parties must agree in order for a deal to pass.
Brazil's President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and some countries including the UK want the summit to commit countries to stronger, faster action to reduce their use of fossil

China imports no US soybeans for second month, Brazil arrivals up 29%

BEIJING (Reuters) -China imported no soybeans from the U.S. for a second straight month in October even as total imports surged to a record high on purchases from South America, with buyers aiming to avert ‌supply disruptions amid trade tensions with Washington.
Data from China's General Administration of Customs on Thursday showed U.S.‌ soybean imports in October fell to zero from 541,434 metric tons a year earlier.
The decline followed China's imposition of high tariffs on U.S. soybeans earlier in the year and the dep

More than 300 industrial agriculture lobbyists have participated at this year’s UN climate talks taking place in the Brazilian Amazon, where the industry is the leading cause of deforestation, a new investigation has found.
The number of lobbyists representing the interests of industrial cattle farming, commodity grains and pesticides is up 14% on last year’s summit in Baku – and larger than the delegation of the world’s 10th largest economy, Canada, which brought 220 delegates to Cop30 in Belém, according to the joint investigation by DeSmog and the Guardian.

BELEM, Brazil (AP) — Global efforts to curb emissions of the potent but short-lived heat-trapping gas methane are doing about as poorly as the more prevalent carbon dioxide, but there's hope for the next five years, U.N. officials said Monday.
Methane emissions can be a “hand brake” for slowing greenhouse gas pollution and temperatures, said Martina Otto, head of the U.N.'s climate and clean air commission for methane pollution. That's because methane from fossil fuels traps nearly 30 times the heat of the more common carbon dioxide, but because they don't last nearly as long in the air, fast
