Shifting away from fossil fuels to renewable energy products will not only help address harmful emissions, but unwanted chemical exposure.
Results for "climate crisis"
Small modular reactors offer no hope for nuclear energy
Many believe that small modular reactors will help solve the energy crisis, but this belief is grossly optimistic.
Investing in clean energy research: How likely are we to phase out fossil fuels?
Major world economies are investing more in green technologies, but how optimistic should we be?
Materials discovery dilemma: Seeing the forest for the trees
While some would contend that materials discovery will breathe life into a hydrogen economy, it cannot realize its full potential unless production becomes less costly and more efficient.
Building new reservoirs can have unexpected consequences on water security
Any discussion about the role of new reservoirs must focus on the creation of new unsustainable demand.
Challenges in establishing eco-cities within urban agglomeration
Urbanization is threatening global water supplies, but finding a way to balance expansion with sustainable water management between nature, people, and the city water infrastructure.
An eco-friendly smart coating to keep buildings cool without air conditioners
Researchers have developed an innovative method to make advanced coating materials for “smart” sub-ambient radiative cooling in large-scale building applications.
Pioneers in Science: John B. Goodenough
We take a look at John B. Goodenough’s life and career, which were shaped by some of the defining events of the last century.
Water, reciprocity, and the anthropocene in the Himalayas
In the Himalayas, where the ontology of water is not always premised on the creations of boundaries between nature and culture, the condition of water, whether abundant or scarce, has key implications for cultural life.
We need to engage and exchange for a sustainable water economy
A promising approach to establishing a circular water economy and improved technologies requires active involvement and collaboration from all members of society.
