In 2025, the number of threatened species identified by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources stood at over 18,000. But while animals like critically endangered orangutans or humpback dolphins are getting a lot of attention, the share of threatened mammal species stood at only 7 percent of all threatened animals.

Mammals represented 14 percent of all threatened animals species (defined by the as species listed as either critically endangered, endangered or vulnerable on the Red List) in 2007. Between 2007 and 2025, animal classes with a growing share in endangered species counts included reptiles, insects, fish and molluscs (a class including snails, slugs, mussels, squid and worms), while amphibian endangerment remained at a high level. Almost every fourth endangered species in the world in 2025 is a fish.

While the reasons for the endangerment of insects and fish are well known and include overfishing, pesticide use and monoculture, less is written about threats to reptiles and molluscs. According to the IUCN, many reptile species are concentrated in rainforest regions and are therefore threatened by deforestation. Furthermore, the species are particularly sensitive to environmental changes, including climate change. With molluscs, endangered species are mainly those who live on land and in freshwater. They are threatened by habitat destruction or are being pushed out by invasive species, according to the American Institute of Biological Sciences.

November 25 is the UN International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. 50,000 women and girls were estimated to have been killed by intimate partners or family members worldwide in 2024, according to a new report by the UNODC and UN Women. This corresponds to an average of 137 victims every day. While men accounted for 80 percent of global homicide victims in 2024, women and girls remained disproportionately affected in the home, with 60 percent of all intentionally killed women losing their lives at the hands of partners or relatives. UN estimates show that gender-based violence affects every region. Africa recorded the highest number of intimate partner/family femicides in 2024 at 22,600 cases, as well as the highest risk level, with 3 victims per 100,000 female population. Asia followed in absolute numbers with 17,400 victims, while the Americas recorded the second-highest relative risk at 1.5 per 100,000. Researchers highlight that these figures are estimates and that data availability has sharply declined, with the number of reporting countries halving between 2020 and 2023. The UN defines gender-related killings as intentional killings driven by gender-related factors, including male entitlement, social norms surrounding masculinity, and efforts to assert control, enforce gender roles or punish perceived unacceptable female behavior. Although women are far less likely than men to be homicide victims overall, they face a disproportionate risk of deadly violence in the private sphere. While 80 percent of homicide victims are male, men are rarely killed by someone close to them. In contrast, 60 percent of female homicide victims globally in 2024 were killed by partners or family members. According to UNODC estimates, the share of intimate partner/family femicides among all intentional killings of women and girls was even higher in Oceania (74 percent) and Africa (67 percent). Femicides frequently represent the culmination of repeated episodes of gender-based violence and are therefore preventable through timely intervention. The UN estimates that 50,000 women and girls were killed by intimate partners or family members in 2024—an average of 137 every day.

While it is still most common for children under the age of 18 to be living with two biological parents in the United States, as many as nearly four in ten children live in a different kind of family constellation. This is according to 2022 U.S. Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey data, analyzed by the Washington Post.

As the following chart shows, 62.9 of under 18 year olds were recorded as living with both biological parents in 2022. The second most common family for children was living with a single biological parent, accounting for one in four children and after that, the combination of one biological parent and a stepparent (5.1 percent). Close to four percent of children that year were living without a parent, whether biological, adoptive or a stepparent.

According to the Post, same-s*x couples are far more likely to adopt. Native American adults also had a higher likelihood of adopting children than other groups.

Today, a significantly higher proportion of children are born outside of marriage than in the 1960s - as shown in our racing bars video based on OECD data. In 1960, the proportion of births outside of marriage in Germany, for example, was 7.6 percent. By 2020, it had risen to 33.1 percent - meaning that one in three children in Germany is born outside of marriage. In the Netherlands, this trend has been even more rapid, rising from 1.4 percent in 1960 to 51 percent in 2020. A similar trend has been observed in the other industrialized countries shown here.

A number of cultural and social changes have contributed to this development. In many countries, marriage is no longer seen as a prerequisite for starting a family, with the stigma attached to unmarried parents declining or largely disappeared. Today, many people see marriage as a private decision rather than a duty or moral norm.

In addition, women in these countries now have better access to education, careers, and income and are therefore more economically independent. Marriage is no longer seen as a necessary safeguard, and decisions about children are made more consciously and individually - regardless of marital status. In most industrialized countries today, there are no longer as many legal discrepancies between children born in and out of wedlock (e.g. in terms of custody or inheritance rights). This has further reduced the pressure to marry before giving birth.

Shortly after Nvidia announced its latest results on Wednesday after market close, a collective sigh of relief reverberated across Wall Street. The chipmaker at the heart of the AI transformation had once again beaten expectations, delivering results that provided much needed assurance to jittery investors who feared that the AI hype cycle had passed its peak or, even worse, that the AI bubble was about to burst.

There were little signs of a slowdown in Nvidia’s results – in fact, the company’s growth accelerated and will pick up even more momentum in the current quarter, according to Nvidia’s outlook for the fourth quarter of its fiscal year 2026. In the three months ended October 27, Nvidia’s revenue grew 62 percent from the same period last year, reaching $57 billion beating its own forecast of $54 to $55 billion as well as analyst expectations.

Once again, Nvidia's data center business was at the heart of the company's record-breaking quarter, as it saw a 66-percent increase in revenue versus a year ago and accounted for just under 90 percent of total sales. Net income surged to $31.9 billion in the quarter, which is more than seven times the company's full-year profit for fiscal 2023, the last year without the impact of AI. For the current quarter, Nvidia expects revenue of $65 billion, which would bring its growth rate to 65 percent – another increase from this quarter’s 62-percent growth.

In his comments accompanying the earnings release, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang didn't temper his optimism, saying that demand for his company's Blackwell chips was "off the charts". "Compute demand keeps accelerating and compounding across training and inference — each growing exponentially," he said. "We’ve entered the virtuous cycle of AI. The AI ecosystem is scaling fast — with more new foundation model makers, more AI startups, across more industries, and in more countries. AI is going everywhere, doing everything, all at once."

In many countries, it is still illegal for members of the LGBT community to adopt and foster children. The following map uses data from the International Le***an, Gay, Bis*xual, Trans and Inters*x Association (ILGA World) to show where joint adoption and second-parent adoption are allowed, along with the countries where there are no laws allowing same-s*x couples to adopt.

A joint adoption is when a couple adopts a child who was not previously the legal child of either partner. A second-parent adoption, however, is when a partner, who is not biologically related to the child, adopts their partner's biological or adopted child. As the following chart shows, a more open stance on adoption rights can be seen across Western Europe and North America, where at least some form of adoption is permitted. While most of the region’s countries support both kinds of adoption, in San Marino, only second-parent adoption is allowed. Eastern Europe is far more restrictive.

South America shows more of a mixed picture with Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and Colombia all supporting the continent’s more progressive laws, as Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador and Venezuela deny them. In the case of Mexico, there is no federal law allowing for joint or second-parent adoption by same-s*x couples. And while adoption would virtually be available in all states that recognise same-s*x marriage, the lack of specific legislation creates legal uncertainty and often impedes the access to adoption rights by same-s*x couples. Meanwhile, South Africa is the only country in Africa to support both kinds of laws, according to ILGA.

This map reflects the ILGA’s latest data, which is from 2024.

Its name may not be very well known, but it is one of the most important companies on the global internet. Cloudflare suffered a major outage on Tuesday, November 18, causing connection problems for millions of websites around the world. Cloudflare is a reverse proxy service, an intermediary between clients and servers that enhances security, performance and reliability for web applications. The outage, which has since been resolved, made major websites, such as social network X, Amazon, Claude AI, Canva, and Spotify, inaccessible for several hours.

As our infographic shows, Cloudflare is a hidden pillar of the internet: in November 2025, it protected around 20 percent of all websites worldwide, according to data from W3Techs, far ahead of its main competitor in the market, Amazon CloudFront, which protected between 1 and 2 percent.

World Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Awareness Week runs from November 18 to 24. Antimicrobials are medicines used to prevent and treat infectious diseases. These can be used on humans, animals and plants and come in the forms of antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals and antiparasitics. Although resistance to these medicines occurs naturally, due to genetic changes in pathogens over time, this process can be exacerbated when humans use antimicrobials too frequently or do not finish a course fully. The result can be deadly, with dangerous strains of bacteria endangering lives and threatening the ability to treat common infections and, as a result, to perform life-saving procedures from cancer chemotherapy to caesarean sections.

A recent report by the OECD highlights significant disparities in antibiotic prescribing practices across countries. Among those providing data, Greece had the highest prescription rate in 2023, with 26.7 defined daily doses (DDDs) per 1,000 people. This is well above the OECD average of 16 DDDs and nearly three times the level seen in Sweden and the Netherlands, where the rates were 8.7 and 8.8 DDDs per 1,000 people, respectively. While the volume of antibiotics prescribed has generally decreased across most OECD countries, Finland (-5.8 DDDs/1,000) and Canada (-5.6 DDDs/1,000) have shown the greatest reductions since 2013. The OECD states that antibiotics should only be prescribed when supported by clear evidence.

Antibiotic resistance can also build up through more indirect means, such as via eating the meat of live feed that has been treated with antibiotics, or consuming meat or dairy products contaminated with antibiotic resistant pathogens. Data from 2020 shows that countries such as Thailand, China and Australia rely on the practice of giving animals antibiotics far more heavily than nations including Norway, Sweden and the United Kingdom.

U.S. president Donald Trump on Sunday urged House Republicans to vote for the release of files related to late s*x offender Jeffrey Epstein, marking a complete reversal from his original stance. In a message posted on Truth Social yesterday evening, the president wrote: "House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from this Democrat Hoax perpetrated by Radical Left Lunatics in order to deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party, including our recent Victory on the Democrat ‘Shutdown’". The move comes shortly after GOP congressman Thomas Massie and Democratic congressman Ro Khanna, the two representatives leading the bipartisan push to make all of the Epstein files public, garnered enough signatures on a discharge petition to force the House to vote on making the Justice Department release all of the documents on the case. While Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein were photographed together years ago, the president has long maintained they fell out before Epstein's crimes came to light.

As our infographic, based on YouGov data, shows, more than four out of ten people surveyed in the U.S. last week (44 percent) said they believe president Trump was involved in crimes allegedly committed by Jeffrey Epstein, while 32 percent believed in the president's innocence. Almost a quarter of respondents (24 percent) said they didn't know. Similarly, 41 percent of the people taking part in the study believed Donald Trump knew "a lot" about crimes Epstein may have committed before the allegations against him became public; only 9 percent of respondents said they didn't think the president knew anything of the financier's alleged crimes. Emails released last week by a House committee seemed to indicate that Donald Trump was aware that underage girls were victims of Epstein.

While there are a myriad of different taxes associated with flying, governments in many countries levy passenger-specific air transport departure duties that can be used to help offset some of the costs of tourism, of the environmental impacts of flying or simply bolster government revenue.

Japan, which has seen tourist numbers rise to new heights after a pandemic slump, last week saw calls by lawmakers to triple the departure tax from currently 1,000 Yen (around $6,50). Like Japan, many countries include the departure tax in the price of a ticket so that passengers are mostly unaware that they are paying it. However, the proceeds can then be used towards different projects, in the case of Japan to offset some of the effects of overtourism.

Data by the International Air Transport Association shows that air travel related taxes in Japan are currently very low in an international comparison at just an average $1,80 per departing passenger, as the country only charges international passengers its exit tax (and will continue to do so in the future). Countries in Asia generally tend to charge lower passenger-specific duties, the survey shows.

A new report sheds light on the level of trust - or in many cases distrust - in governments around the world. According to the latest Edelman Trust Barometer, Saudi Arabia came first for government credibility among the public in 2024. Germany is towards the opposite end of the scale, with its government trusted by a mere 35 percent of respondents. This is a drop of 7 percentage points since the same time one year ago. Only Spain and Japan scored lower, at 33 and 32 percentage points, respectively. Of the 38 countries surveyed, Argentina saw the greatest improvements in trust for its government since 2023, rising 21 percentage points to 42 percent.

According to the report, fear that leaders are lying reached an all-time high in 2024. Across the 26 nations surveyed, the share of people who worry that government leaders deliberately mislead the public rose by an average of 11 percentage points between 2021 and 2025. By 2025, 69 percent of respondents held this belief. Meanwhile, on average, business remained the most trusted institution in 2024 (62 percent trust), followed by NGOs (58 percent), government (52 percent) and the media (52 percent).
