Our series is over, but the challenges remain.

Geoengineering could be used to lower global temperatures and capture carbon. The possibilities are tremendous, but so too are the risks.

Traditional assumptions about how we will feed the world’s rapidly growing population are being upended by climate change.

History tells us that the benefits of President Obama’s brain mapping project will be worth the risks.

Preparing for the inevitable impacts of climate change through “adaptation.”

We have the technology to produce power from clean, renewable sources. So why don’t we?

Sometimes a flipped coin comes up heads 10 times in a row. Sometimes, tragically, disease clusters are nothing more than random bad luck.

Human endeavors in nature haven’t always yielded such neat outcomes.

Our dependence on coal, oil and natural gas is causing us problems — and it needs to be addressed immediately.

To reduce carbon emissions and meet increasing demand for electricity, we must overhaul our energy system and embrace a major expansion of nuclear power.

It’s a vicious cycle: Our transportation systems emit greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change. And in turn, climate change poses a huge threat to our transportation systems. What can we do?

Congressional action on climate change may be stalled, but the Pentagon is taking a leading role. Rear Adm. David Titley explains why melting glaciers and rising sea levels constitute a dire threat to national security.

Each year 147 people die in cars from accidental carbon monoxide poisoning. The technology to detect CO exists and is inexpensive. So why isn’t it a standard feature?

Could the widespread use of energy efficient technologies stem the rising tide of climate change? Our experts weigh in.

Courts, prosecutors, and defenders are appropriately looking at every individual case possibly tainted by Annie Dookhan. But more broadly, we need to look at the types of crimes we are prosecuting and at what cost?

It’s too late to stop climate change in its tracks, but there are things we can do to reduce and eventually stabilize greenhouse gas emissions.

I’m hooked not on the reward — but on the anticipation that precedes it.

Science can help us understand the causes and effects of climate change. But what we do about it is an ethical question.

It’s one thing to try to reduce your own, personal carbon footprint. But what if you’re a giant multinational corporation? Three business leaders outline what their companies are doing.

Most of our so-called ‘natural’ disasters are at least partly man made: Sandy is just the most recent example. Architects, engineers, and designers are often ahead of the curve, but we’ve got miles to go to prepare for future ‘acts of God.’

Museum of Science president Ioannis Miaoulis says “we need a new Sputnik moment.”
