Could Energy Innovation Create A ‘Green Bubble’?
iNational Public Radio: One argument for a major overhaul of the U.S. electricity grid is to encourage the development of more renewable sources of energy, such as wind and solar. President Obama certainly has gotten behind green energy, and his administration is part of a concerted effort to help the industry grow. In the [...]

Southern Glaciers Grow Out Of Step With North
iScienceDaily: The vast majority of the world’s glaciers are retreating as the planet gets warmer. But a few, including ones south of the equator, in South America and New Zealand, are inching forward. A new study in the journal Science puts this enigma in perspective; for the last 7,000 years New Zealand’s largest glaciers [...]

Sea Salt Holds Clues To Climate Change
iScienceDaily: We know that average sea levels have risen over the past century, and that global warming is to blame. But what is climate change doing to the saltiness, or salinity, of our oceans? This is an important question because big shifts in salinity could be a warning that more severe droughts and floods are [...]
