Solar geoengineering could halve global temperature increases without making climate change worse, research shows.

Last August, Abdelrhman Mohamed found himself hiking deep into the wilderness of Yellowstone National Park.

Scientists have found a new way to control light emitted by exotic crystal semiconductors, which could lead to more efficient solar cells and other advances in electronics, according to a Rutgers-led study in the journal Materials Today.

A new report and map published by the U.S. Geological Survey provides critical insight to electric power grid operators across the northeastern United States in the event of a once-per-century magnetic superstorm.  

Increasing evidence has sprung up that important key players in the methane cycle have been overlooked.

Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) have discovered a method of plastics upcycling—transforming discarded products into new, high-value materials of better quality and environmental value—that could economically incentivize the recycling of waste plastics and help solve one of the world’s most looming pollution problems.

Finding the best light-harvesting chemicals for use in solar cells can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. 

Biofuel experts have long sought a more economically viable way to turn algae into biocrude oil to power vehicles, ships and even jets.

All rooftop solar panels look pretty much the same from the outside: same size, same thickness and even the same installation system.

In the fight to slow climate change, nature is a powerful weapon.
