"Increasing access to nature for more Americans in a responsible manner is a tried and true method for instilling a passion for environmental stewardship. In fact, it’s the sportsmen and women, hikers, mountain bikers, and rock climbers who are some of our nation’s greatest conservationists. These nature enthusiasts want to protect their backyards, and the more people we get outside, the more stewards we will have."
"Despite these massive hydroengineering efforts, China can’t feed its own people or supply enough water for its industrial economy. More than 75% of China’s surface water supply is contaminated and undrinkable. Under current United Nations standards, the amount of water available in Beijing places the megalopolis in a state of 'extreme water scarcity.' Much of China’s farmland is too polluted by heavy minerals and salinization to grow edible crops. China is now the world’s largest importer of feed grains, accounting for 60% of global imports of soybeans. It also imports 70% of its cooking oils."
The Cook Islands just might hold the key to a more secure and sustainable critical minerals future.
"Icon has spent 18 months developing its artificial intelligence program — named Vitruvius after an ancient Roman architect — which uses a chatbot to converse with would-be homeowners about their dream projects. After the user responds to a series of prompts, Vitruvius offers several versions of a house, complete with exterior and interior renderings and floor plans."
LanzaJet will make 10 million gallons of sustainable jet fuel annually.
"Wind and solar don’t need to pay for fuel, so they can deliver low-cost power to ERCOT whenever the weather is favorable. That pushes down the prices that coal owners can earn during those high-renewables hours, reducing the amount of time when it makes economic sense to run their plants. Solar can only operate in the sunlight, yet it still managed to produce more megawatt-hours in March than Texas coal plants, which technically could run at any time of day."
"In many places, upgrading power lines with advanced conductors could nearly double the capacity of existing transmission corridors at less than half the cost of building new lines, researchers found. If utilities began deploying advanced conductors on a nationwide scale — replacing thousands of miles of wires — they could add four times as much transmission capacity by 2035 as they are currently on pace to do."
"Regardless of who wins in November, we have serious work to do to combat political climate change. It is each of our responsibilities to choose the most radical response of all – warmheartedness and truth."
