In this episode of our weekly series where journalists from the Cosmos newsroom bring you their highlights from the week in science, we hear about the crows being put to work – and the ethics of it, 300-year-old Arctic sponges, and a self-cleaning bioplastic modelled on the lotus plant. Our journalists today are Lauren Fuge, Amalyah Hart and Ellen Phiddian.
