Pioneering study reveals: lightning strikes kill more trees than expected. 320 million per year, excluding fires. The impact on CO2 is enormous.

Drones with Faraday cages attract lightning for safety and (maybe) energy: Science braves the storms’ wrath.
Zeus, go ahead: a small laser can interact with particles in the air to create a path for chain lightning to pass.
