Spencer Brewer+FollowOlder Adults Are Winning at VaccinesTurns out, our parents and grandparents are onto something—getting those vaccines is paying off big time. New research shows that vaccines like the shingles, RSV, and enhanced flu shots are seriously cutting hospital visits and even lowering dementia risk (yep, you read that right). Seniors are leading the charge, rolling up their sleeves and reaping the benefits. If you needed another reason to book that shot, this is it! #VaccinesWork #HealthyAging #ScienceWins #Health90Share

Michael Flores+FollowRemember the Ozone Hole Panic? Here’s the UpdateCan you believe it’s been 40 years since scientists freaked us out about the ozone hole? Turns out, banning those CFCs in hairspray and fridges actually worked—sort of. The ozone layer is slowly healing, but it’s taking decades (think: not fully fixed until after 2070!). The Montreal Protocol is still a win for global teamwork, but scientists wish we’d tackle climate change with the same energy. Imagine if we did! #OzoneLayer #ScienceWins #ClimateAction #MontrealProtocol #EnvironmentalSuccess #Science6582Share
