    Please try this experiment tonight: In your bedroom with the lights off and blinds open, see if you can read a magazine or book by the light leaking in, then come back and report. DO NOT answer during the day based on your memory, wait to try it tonight! RTs much appreciated.

    Yr 8 science teacher asked us to name types of pollution. I put my hand up and said "light pollution". She scoffed and insisted that wasn't a thing. STILL NOT OVER IT.

    Nice animation explaining plant circadian clock. Plants have clocks that tell them what season it is and what time it is to open their flowers.
