Assistant Professor César Terrer discusses pioneering volcano research to track carbon dynamics in tropical forests.

Climate change need not be a taboo topic at the dinner parties, like politics and religion.

MIT engineers propose a new “local electricity market” to tap into the power potential of homeowners’ grid-edge devices.

If every car was electric, every single power station in the UK could be devoted entirely to powering them and it still wouldn’t be enough.

A new MIT study identifies steps that can lower not only emissions, but also costs, across the combined electric power and natural gas industries that now supply heating fuels.

From space, scientists can track everything from sea levels or greenhouse gases to infectious bacteria or water stored underground.

Melting ice, thawing permafrost and crumbling fjord walls are just a few of the risks climate change poses for those living and working in Greenland.

These planes need a lot more fuel as they experience significantly more drag beyond the speed of sound.

It starts with better building policies that recognize future risks, but there are many other important steps.
