A survey of coaches and athletic officials in Texas indicates many of them would be wise to think harder about the risks their students face as the climate changes, according to Rice University researchers who conducted the statewide study.
Researchers at the Cellulose & Wood Materials Laboratory at the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology (Empa) have been working on a disposable paper battery that could reduce the environmental impact of single-use electronics.

A cross-sectional study was conducted by the Financial Economics II and Economics and Business departments at the UPV/EHU-University of the Basque Country to determine whether economic peaks and troughs have different effects on internal (consumer motivations, attitudes, and perceived effectiveness) and external (environmental information and marketing) factors that affect green behavior, such as green activism and green purchasing.
Sediments in the Tremp-Graus basin (on the border between Lleida and Huesca) that date back 56 million years have been investigated by the Department of Geology at the UPV/EHU.
Direct fossil fuel consumption by buildings, burned in water heaters, furnaces, and other heating sources, account for nearly 10 percent of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States.
Launched in 2020, the MIT Mobility Initiative (MMI) is a unique cross-Institute initiative aimed at convening key stakeholders to drive innovation, while providing unbiased strategic direction to guide a deeper collective understanding of mobility challenges, and shape a mobility system that is sustainable, safe, clean, and accessible.
Restoring coastal vegetation – so called 'blue carbon' habitats – may not be the nature-based climate solution it is claimed to be, according to a new study.
In the past few years, the plumes of smoke going upward from Western wildfires have gotten taller, with a high number of aerosols and smoke lofted up where they have the potential to spread far away and affect air quality over an extensive area.
According to a new study performed, restoring coastal vegetation—the alleged “blue carbon” habitats—might not be the nature-based climate solution that it is claimed to be.
Heinrich Events or, more accurately, Heinrich Layers, are recurrent conspicuous sediment layers, usually ten to 15 centimeters thick, with very coarse rock components that interrupt the otherwise fine-grained oceanic deposits in the North Atlantic.
Air-conditioning needs an energy overhaul--PNNL research provides a roadmap to get there using energy efficient adsorption cooling.
Excessive cooling events defined as Heinrich Events in the North Atlantic during the last glacial period are a perfect example of how local processes affect global climate.
The speed and volume of carbon dioxide emitted from supervolcanoes controlled the severity of past environmental crises on Earth, a new international Curtin-led study has found.
Some naturally produced lake bacteria grow quicker and more effectively on the remnants of plastic bags than on natural matter such as leaves and twigs, according to a study of 29 European lakes.
Research shows that there’s more carbon dioxide in the Earth’s atmosphere than ever before in human history. UNDO are tackling the detrimental effects of climate change using enhanced weathering removal, which is based on the natural weathering of rocks.
