Is it ecologically responsible to buy an apple from overseas? Shouldn't people as a rule choose fruit from national or local producers? Such questions play an every greater role in consumers' buying decisions. Yet our gut feelings can be misleading. Approaches, such as BASF's eco-efficiency analysis, make it possible to carry out an objective assessment.
Carnegie Mellon University's M. Granger Morgan will unveil a novel "two-stage'' approach for developing new energy technologies that can help society reduce dangerous greenhouse gas emissions and create a cleaner economy during a policy briefing January 9 at 1 p.m. at 1200 New York Ave. N.W. in Washington, D.C.
According to a new Cornell study, after a sudden rise in species numbers, diatoms abruptly declined about 33 million years ago - trends that coincided with severe global cooling
