Ordinary passenger jets flying over the poles while scattering sun-reflecting particles into the stratosphere might already be our best and most affordable tool for slowing an overheating planet

14+ hour, 55+ min ago   (693+ words) Passenger jets flying over the poles while scattering sun-reflecting particles into the stratosphere may already be our most affordable tool for cooling an overheating planet. For years, the leading plan for seeding the stratosphere with sun-reflecting particles rested on a…...

A strip of track in the Swiss Jura carries 48 solar panels laid flat between the rails and thousands of trains have run over them, but the array covers only 330 feet of a national network

16+ hour, 46+ min ago   (812+ words) A single track railway in the western Swiss mountains, pasture on both sides, a station a short walk away. Between the rails, where there is normally gravel and nothing else, a run of dark blue panels lies flat. They sit…...

Hurricanes pose a growing threat to coastal wind farms, yet earthquake sensors buried along the Louisiana shoreline secretly captured turbulence

16+ hour, 55+ min ago   (606+ words) In 2021, a hurricane-hunting research aircraft plummeted more than 1,600 feet without warning. Caught in a violent atmospheric downdraft, heavy gear slammed against the cabin ceiling while crew members clung to their seats. It was a terrifying reminder of why the ocean-adjacent…...

Rare tropical fruits most people have never seen are growing straight out of the rocks in a Jamaican backyard, where breadfruit, star fruit, and ackee thrive on a steep hillside that looks impossible to farm

22+ hour, 55+ min ago   (479+ words) Marie stumbles slightly as she records video on her smartphone, catching her footing on loose stone before redirecting the lens toward a lush canopy. Around her, heavy branches bearing breadfruit, avocados, and native ackee crowd a steep hillside that resembles…...

Argonne National Laboratory study finds emergency response models underestimate hazardous dust resuspension from driving and marching

1+ day, 15+ hour ago   (443+ words) A study published in Health Physics by researchers at Argonne National Laboratory finds that widely used emergency response models have significantly underestimated how much hazardous dust common activities can kick into the air. The culprit: a longstanding gap in experimental…...

Solar panels are eating America's farmland, but experts say urban sprawl causes far more permanent damage while solar actually offers struggling farmers a rare financial lifeline through agrivoltaics, local tax revenue, and land that can farm again in 40 years

1+ day, 16+ hour ago   (791+ words) Somewhere in West Texas, 3,000 sheep are grazing beneath rows of solar panels across 8,000 acres—and their keeper, Chad Raines, calls it the thing that finally saved his farm after more than a decade of losses. It’s a scene that looks…...

Canada and British Columbia break ground on $3.9-billion North Coast Transmission Line to expand clean power capacity

3+ day, 12+ hour ago   (326+ words) The project is designed to more than double clean electricity availability along B.C.’s West Coast. What that capacity is meant to unlock, though, goes well beyond the power grid. The $3.9-billion funding commitment came through the Canada–British Columbia Cooperative…...

Scientists listened for porpoises inside a tidal-energy zone and discovered the tide itself can bury their clicks beneath 29 decibels of underwater noise

4+ day, 55+ min ago   (568+ words) Tracking marine mammal echolocation clicks is complex due to noise in tidal energy zones. Global offshore renewable projects are rapidly expanding to meet increasing clean power demand. A technology rising in popularity is underwater turbines harnessing the energy from tides....
