MORE CANCER IN CANCER ALLEY

Scientists set to find out just how toxic Louisiana’s “Cancer Alley” really is, using the latest, high tech equipment. What they found is shocking.

...DOES IT MAKE A SOUND

The Boreal forest, once a vast carbon sink, is now under threat. As more of the Arctic burns, and then burns again, wildfire is outpacing the trees’ ability to regrow.

WAITING TO EXHALE

We’re inhaling tiny plastic particles with every breath. Scientists are racing to understand the long-term effects of pervasive micro and nano plastics on our bodies, but there’s currently no regulation to limit human exposure.

IN HOT WATER

The unusual flooding that has devastated southern Brazil was made possible by human burning of fossil fuels. The record disaster has caused large scale death and destruction. Not to mention, it has only been worsened by human incompetence.

BLACKWATER

Rising surface temperatures also mean rising groundwater temperatures. If we continue at our current rate, a new study says hundreds of millions of people could be living in areas where poor-quality groundwater threatens their health by the year 2100.

ION NO MORE CARBON

A potential breath of fresh air in carbon capture: charged-sorbents offer a low-cost and easy-to-use solution for achieving net zero emissions. How do they work?

High schoolers have figured out a simple solution to a complex problem: how to filter microplastics out of our water. Find out how they were able to trap 94% of the plastics… and win their school’s science fair.

DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION

The band Coldplay used an electricity-generating dance-floor at their concerts to slash their tour footprint. The band has managed to cut their emissions by 59% of their last tour. And they are taking it even further with more clever green ideas.

STATE OF THE UNION

The clean energy economy’s main problem has always been unions: how do we provide high paying green jobs in places that fight unions? A school bus factory in Georgia just proved that we can do both.

GREEN GOLD GOALS

Green is the new gold! The U.S. shattered clean energy investment records in the first quarter of 2024, reaching $71 billion — a massive leap toward a sustainable future.

OF BOYS AND MEN

Is toxic masculinity driving climate denial? Right-wing personalities Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson, who pride themselves on slandering women and trans people, are now adding climate science to their list.

HOT BRAKES

Cities around the world have successfully introduced congestion pricing to ease pollution and fund greener public transport. So why did New York just pump the brakes on a good idea?

RETIREMENT NIGHTMARE
