    After some people sought alternatives to satisfy their food needs and wants during recent shortages, shop owners might wonder if this switching behaviour will have a long-term effect on their customer’s loyalty.
  • But loyalty can be fragile, as shown by current evidence of customers switching to independent greengrocers and farm shops amid recent food shortages.
  • But if people can’t satisfy their shopping needs and so seek alternatives by switching, how long could it be before they switch back – or start shopping at an entirely new place?
  • But the crisis also led to some more permanent changes in shopping behaviour, including shopping more locally and also online.

A professor is going to live in an underwater hotel for 100 days – here’s what it might do to his body

If he manages this, he will break a record for most time spent in a habitat beneath the surface of the ocean.

Key Points: 
  • If he manages this, he will break a record for most time spent in a habitat beneath the surface of the ocean.
  • He is hoping to use his time spent below the surface to examine what impact living in this high-pressure environment has on his health.
  • This means there’s no significant difference in pressure, even when a submarine is at depths of hundreds of meters.
  • But Dituri’s underwater habitat won’t have any solid hatches or air locks between the ocean and the dry living space, as a submarine does.
  • Think of it like when a glass of water is turned upside down and pushed into a sink full of water.
  • This means that the air inside his habitat is squeezed by the ocean’s weight, increasing the air pressure around him.
  • But as pressure increases, nitrogen in the air is forced across the delicate walls of our lungs and into our blood.
  • It’s likely that Dituri will not be exposed to enough vitamin D while living in his underwater environment.
  • This reinforces how important it will be for Dituri to get enough vitamin D exposure and exercise.
  • Of course, the biggest question that remains is what effect long-term hyperbaric pressure will have on Dituri.
