This week Linden talks about methane as a greenhouse gas, and a new study showing that rivers with more waterfalls release more methane; and Stu runs us through the different parts of our immune system, including a recently discovered power of proteasomes within cells helping to attack invading bacteria. Rust, R.L., Frizzell, A. & Kessler, J.D. Waterfalls enhance regional methane emissions by enabling dissolved methane to bypass microbial oxidation.
