Studies in raising insects in various oxygen rich atmospheres, or hyperoxia, have shown that dragonflies grow larger in size with more oxygen in the atmosphere. This relates to the giant dragonflies of ancient Earth which were known to be connected to the higher oxygen atmospheric levels in the past.

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/05/190515115831.htm
The study shows that the volcanic eruption on Iceland in 1783-84 did not actually cause the extreme summer heat wave in Europe. It also showed that the eruption did cause the unusually cold winter, as expected. The study will help with predictions of how the climate will respond to high-latitude volcanic eruptions in the future.

A large problem with sustainable energy is storing large amounts of energy that has been generated by solar, wind, and waves. As of now, there is no existing technology that provides large-scale storage and energy retrieval for sustainable energy at a low financial and environmental cost. According to the study, electroactive microbes could do the job.
