Regina Barber and Rachel Carlson of Short Wave talk about humans' unique breathing patterns, how a hotter planet worsens droughts, and the diets of dinosaurs.

The NPR article from June 12, 2025, titled "This Week in Science: Humans' Unique Breathing, Droughts, and the Diets of Dinosaurs," discusses several scientific topics. It highlights a study revealing that humans have a unique breathing pattern compared to other mammals, which may have contributed to the development of speech. Another segment focuses on the increasing frequency and severity of droughts globally, attributing these changes to climate change and discussing potential mitigation strategies. Lastly, the article delves into recent findings about the diets of dinosaurs, suggesting that some species were more omnivorous than previously thought, based on fossilized stomach contents and isotopic analysis.
