Mitigation and Adaptation in Polycentric Systems
The potential of polycentric governance for promoting both climate mitigation and adaptation is well established. Yet, dominant conceptualizations of polycentric governance pay scant attention to how power dynamics affect the structure and the outcomes of governance.
Energy Perspectives: Qiang Zhang Outlines Lithium Dendrite Formation
Qiang Zhang takes a moment to outline the lithium dendrite formation problem faced by researchers working on lithium-based battery technologies.
The Role of Arts in Climate Change Discourse
The arts—especially art using a combination of sounds and visuals—can inspire different ways of thinking about and engaging with the world. At a time when global climate change’s effects are accelerating, climate change communicators would be wise to consider the arts to frame and articulate these complex challenges.
One Step Closer to the Commercialization of Fuel Cells
Wei Chen and co-workers control the thickness of a carbon shell encapsulating precious metal catalysts to yield efficient electrocatalysts.
Climate-Relevant Behavioural Spillover
Collective behavioural change toward less environmentally-impactful lifestyles, particularly in industrialised nations, remains a substantial and obdurate barrier to mitigating the impacts of serious environmental problems, particularly global climate change.
