Flint, Michigan has completed the replacement of more than 10,000 lead water pipes after a decade of the worst water crisis in the nation.

A fine-dining Korean restaurant in Washington D.C. has gone completely plastic-free. Can the rest of modern dining keep up?

As the need for climate migrants is expected to increase, Australia is now offering “climate visas.” Nearly half of the citizens of Tuvalu, a Polynesian island nation have applied to be safely relocated.

Can we turn CO2 emissions into oxygen? Two teenagers have 3D-printed a filter that does just that, using algae.

Europe’s largest floating solar farm is now up and running in Perthes, France — on an area of former gravel pits — and boasts unique advantages like erosion limitation.

Atlanta joined the list of U.S. cities that require new roofs to be painted white. These “cool roofs” reflect sunlight, reducing temperatures inside buildings and in surrounding neighborhoods.

Long after a wildfire is put out, you’ll still be feeling it. New research shows wildfire pollution can contaminate water for up to eight years with some pollutants being over 100x higher than before.

Researchers in Japan created a plastic that melts in seawater in just a few hours. With plastic pollution set to triple by 2040, this could be a groundbreaking solution to a seemingly endless problem. But can it be produced at scale?

Lone star ticks are spreading fast across the U.S., and they could soon snack on you. These ticks are venturing into regions once too cold, now with a bite that can make you allergic to red meat, dairy, and medical products.

Three thousand feet below the ocean’s surface, deep-sea spiders are thriving on a diet of poisonous gas. It may seem like a horror movie, but these methane loving spiders are actually an incredible discovery, and scientists are excited to see what they can learn from these unique creatures.

On Utah’s Great Salt Lake, fishery managers use microscopic counts of brine shrimp eggs to decide when to open or close the harvest. Maybe not thrilling, but a great example of how science can help keep populations stable both for fishing and ecosystems.

A critical U.S. program that uses satellites to help forecast hurricanes was shuttered with almost no warning. The program can map the entire world twice a day, but by the end of the month, it will go dark with some forecasters saying it could set forecasting back “decades.”
